1. Rachel Carson died in 1964. DDT was banned from US crops in 1972. Can you read a calendar? 2. Malaria deaths started declining, from 5 million/yr, in 1963; decline accelerated in 1972 when DDT banned from US. In 2017, <500,000 died from malaria, a 90% drop in deaths. W/o DDT

You’re right. No malaria deaths in the US. Your claim thatvthe DDT ban caused millions to die is absurd, as well as incorrect. Deaths fell everywhere else, too. Your claim that malaria deaths rose is the opposite of history. DDT doesn’t work against malaria in 2018.

Doesn’t work for DDT class pesticides. You don’t study malaria, DDT or public health, do you.https://timpanogos.wordpress.com/2017/12/20/bad-news-from-world-malaria-report-2017-malaria-fight-stalled/ …

Discouraging. Disrespectful. Tragic. Stupid. And sad.
