Watch the full press conference here:

Adding fluoride to water increases the risk of neuropsychiatric disease in children and reduces their IQ. We can strengthen teeth without consuming this neurotoxin. The data are consistent, adding fluoride to our communities' water must stop. See my guidance here:

This just goes to show that just because someone has a bunch of letters after their name, it doesn’t make their theories trustworthy. Your peers have accused you of cherry picking to support your unsubstantiated claims.

This is crazy and unscientific. How did you get your license? Thanks to DeSantis for appointing the lunatic.

Dr Ladapo you are an American hero on so many levels-living as a true role model. Thank you for exposing the dangerous vaccines and the neurotoxins in our water due to fluoridation-they need to stop poisoning humans.

Statistician at UCLA here. That is not remotely an appropriate conclusion from the data regarding fluoride.

@GovLauraKelly @RepDavids @JerryMoran Fluoride needs to be removed from our water in KS

Dr. Ladapo, thank you for looking into the issue and then demonstrating honesty and transparency. This is the kind of leadership we need.

"It is important to note, however, that there were insufficient data to determine if the low fluoride level of 0.7 mg/L currently recommended for U.S. community water supplies has a negative effect on children’s IQ." Taken from the actual report Dr Ladapo is referencing.

Have you been consulting with Dr. Oz again?!

@realJennaEllis Is it me, but Dr. Ladapo reminds me of Ron Desantis, the way he speaks, his demeanor. (That's a good thing!)

I am so glad I live in Florida. We have the best Governor and the best Surgeon General in the 🇺🇸
