Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) Robert F. Kennedy -Younger. On Monday, it plans to send centers for the control and prevention of diseases (CDC) to stop the recommendation of adding fluorine to the water, as well as gathering an operational group for this issue.
The Associated Press reports that Kennedy told his plans after visiting a press conference with the US Ea (EPA) administrator.
The EPA announced on Monday that it is considering a new science of potential fluoride health risks in drinking water, as the agency has the powers to set maximum fluoride levels in the public water supply systems.
While Kennedy has no powers to tell the communities to stop adding fluoride to the water systems, it can send CDC to stop recommending it while cooperating with EPA to set acceptable levels.

Kennedy oversees CDC, although the agency’s recommendations are not obligatory.
Utah became the first state last month, which banned the addition of fluoride in public drinking water, despite the opposition of dentists and national health care organizations, who warned that the action would lead to medical problems among low -income communities.
However, Governor Spencer Cox, a Republican, has signed a legislation that prohibits cities and communities to decide whether a fluoride should be added – a mineral that hinders the cavities – to the water systems that manage these cities and communities.

The CDC does not envisage water fluoridation in society, but it called the fluorination of drinking water one of the 10 great health activities of the 20th century, citing a sharp decrease in the cavities.
