The "Harvard Study" in question does not confirm that fluoride "causes" a lower IQ. Rather, it raises the possibility due to correlation "Conclusions: The results support the possibility of an adverse effect of high fluoride exposure on children’s neurodevelopment." https://ehp.niehs.nih.gov/doi/10.1289/ehp.1104912

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1722290434636964181
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
