Fluoride toxicity depends on the dose & duration of exposure. Very high acute doses can be toxic to both animals & humans, but the levels used in water fluoridation are seen as safe by health experts: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7261729/ https://www.cdc.gov/fluoridation/timeline-for-community-water-fluoridation/index.html https://www.nidcr.nih.gov/health-info/fluoride/the-story-of-fluoridation Fluoride levels in well water: https://www.watersystemscouncil.org/download/wellcare_information_sheets/potential_groundwater_contaminant_information_sheets/Fluoride.pdf https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7649535/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4547570/ Fluoride's Transformation: https://origins.osu.edu/article/toxic-treatment-fluorides-transformation-industrial-waste-public-health-miracle

Original Tweet

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/1922055068087435679

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.
