I'm not anti-DDT by any means, it just irks me when people spread the misconception that DDT is some wonder pesticide adn the banning is directly responsible for millions of deaths. That. I'm afraid, is irrefutable, whether it irks you or not.

There are political and social constraints limiting its use there but how could you say DDT would have prevented all those deaths when resistance to it in just a few years is well documented?
