The fear mongers cannot identify ONE PERSON who has gotten sick from GMO crops because they are GMO. The world is awash with plentiful, inexpensive food in part due to GMO use.Absolutely right. And people are so much healthier, too.
Worldwide, they are - adequate nutrition is a tremendous boon to health. In the USA, an aging population and poor personal habits - such as smoking tobacco (GM or non) and eating junk food (GM or non) - are the primary drivers of health care consumption.

So is dumpster-diving.
Neither is considered by the CDC to be a “primary driver of health care consumption”, so perhaps you would recommend them.
