Where's the Beef?

The Belmont Club : Mal Aire contains an interesting discussion on the DDT ban. When I was a kid, way back in the dark ages of the 1950's, the mosquito control trucks would routinely come down the street with a DDT fog. The whole town was sprayed that way. Us kids would run along behind the fogger will into the the no-visibility zone of the mist. DDT was widely used in the US, particularly the south for vector control and disease control for years. If there was over-exposure, I'm certainly among a large group.

Question: If, as told by the UN, EU and USEPA, DDT is such a terrible persistant organic pollutant (POP) and is a death-dealing chemical, then show me the data meeting real criteria for epidemilogical significance that exposure to DDT increases disease and death rates.

To quote that great American Thinker, Clara: "Where's the Beef?"
