Who? I think you are mistaken in your belief - as most of us older types bathed in DDT and suffered no ill effects. Meanwhile as part of the Human Extinction Movement millions have died as a direct result of banning DDT - I’m sure if there is a medical consequence from the use of DDT, those dead millions would rather have had the consequence than be dead.

Like I said Fear Uncertainty Distortion.

So, everyone gets DDT if you think that you have suffered no harm from it in childhood? What kind of scientific standard is that?

Unless you are presently, have always been, and always will be in utterly perfect health and beat the actuarial tables, you cannot exclude the possibility of harm from DDT -- including harm to any offspring. And the larger point is that no matter your health, due to biological variability, what matters is not isolated individual cases but the cumulative scientific evidence, with much of it based on population based studies.

So, resting your case on deaths prevented, do you accept that DDT has adverse health and environmental consequences?
