They used this to ascend to power. I think it would be an excellent idea to reopen the DDT debate and expose this great hoax once for all. There is a website By Dr. Rutledge called https://3billionandcounting.com which is gearing up to bring this issue to the forefront.Peter Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04551479707309938084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1752027331714385066.post-70456595405114636662010-09-23T20:45:21.017-07:002010-09-23T20:45:21.017-07:00Thank you for the input.

As said, bed bugs will create real pressure to reopen the DDT debate particularly as the present competition does have issues in terms of human exposure.<br /><br />A beginning is a full press revisit of the original science to determine strengths and weaknesses.arcleinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05942529252160087271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1752027331714385066.post-17633498770083208962010-09-23T12:07:30.578-07:002010-09-23T12:07:30.578-07:00I find very few of the claims made in this piece a...I find very few of the claims made in this piece accurate. The ban on DDT was supported by a great body of scientific evidence -- four federal courts made that determination -- the pesticide manufacturers fought hard and bitterly to prevent the ban. DDT has never been in short supply for use against malaria, nor did the U.S. ban on DDT extend to any foreign nation.<br /><br />Malaria deaths are, today, the lowest they have been in human history. <br /><br />Do you think you could make corrections?
