Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
I mentioned earlier that my niece is a local dentist. Her is part of her recent patient email that addresses the WHO recommendations:
“... Last week the World Health Organization put out a statement that people should be delaying their routine dental appointments until the Covid pandemic subsides. Let's talk about WHO though- it is named the World Health Organization because it's talking about Global, not local or regional. The following day, the American Dental Association respectfully disagreed with them.
*To date, there have been zero cases linked to dental offices. We in the dental profession have been using higher standards of protection than most medical facilities for decades, not just since this pandemic started. And when we discuss the risk factor, the majority of dental clinics in the world, even with new updates to care, have yet to reach the standard that we've had in the US Pre-Covid.”
