Post Codes In England Which Are Fluoridated
The following table is slightly out-of-date. Bedford Borough and Pulloxhill District in Central Bedfordshire are not fluoridated pending much-delayed Public Consultations caused by prevarication and Covid-19. The same is true of West Cumbria which is not fluoridated (2022-2023) because the Secretary of State has not officially decided that the original WF contracts have been varied to such an extent that a Public Consultation is indicated. That would, we feel, be political suicide.
Our conclusion is that the Conservative Government are poor losers. They are full of themselves when they succeed at fluoridating an area but silent when they are defeated. By the way, there have been no new WF programmes since the late 1980s in England despite periodic attempts to fluoridate a population.
Currently, the pro-fluoridationists on the Isle of Man are sabre rattling (summer 2023) but nothing will happen until December 2023 when the Tynwald has programmed an examination of a Public Health assessment of the value and effectiveness of WF.
The file below is in 4 parts, the last part being the detailed list of post code areas which are fluoridated. As noted above, Bedford, Pulloxhill (Bedfordshire) and West Cumbria are not currently fluoridated.
