Default Contradiction?

Agency: no causal link between fillings, risks

* Fillings to carry warnings, benefit/risk details - FDA

If there is no link between fillings and risks, then why are they demanding that mercury fillings carry warnings of benefit/risk details??? Sounds totally contradictory to me.

Contradictions very on perception.

Swing the vote with $ and the FDA might come around.

Quote:
They will also carry warnings against their use in patients with mercury allergies or in poorly ventilated areas.
Our mouth is poorly vented when kept shut after eating, (breathing through our nose during this assumption).

Mercury poisoning linked to dolphin deaths
If the internet pages on this topic could have a scent, it would smell funny.

The FDA has approved so many things that ended up hurting people that I no longer trust anything the FDA says. They are too easily "influenced" by companies with money.
