Rachel Carson responsible for the death of millions of Africans

Rachel Carson wrote a book called "Silent Spring", this book contained misrepresentations about the pesticide DDT. The government bought into her claims of DDT and many people died due to it. DDT is used to fight malaria, and if exposed to DDT can have harmful effects. Research has found that DDT can cause a significant decrease in mental and physical functioning among young children and problems increase with more exposure (Swartz, 2007). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) states that DDT is a human carcinogen (Swartz, 2007).

This issue is huge and from my readings of Rachel Carson she was an important icon. In my opinion the government should have had a more intelligent response to the book that Rachel Carson wrote. You can't always believe what you read. Rachel Carson should have had a more direct approach to the information she wrote about and should have been more sincere.

A friend of my use blade to peel of her finger nails and drop it where she use it, so after she has left i did know what came unto me i looked at my nails, my nails were very long and I took the blade which she just used on her own nails to cut of my finger nails, as i was maintaining my names, i mistakenly injured myself. I did even bother about it, so when I got to the hospital the next week when i was ill the doctor told me that I am HIV positive, i wondered where did i got it from so i remembered how I use my friend blade to cut off my hand so i feel so sad in my heart to the extent that i don’t even know what to do, so one day i was passing through the internet i met a testimony of a lady that all talk about how she was cured by a doctor called DR Imoloa so i quickly emailed the doctor and he also replied to me and told me the requirements which i will provide and I do according to his command, he prepare a herbal medicine for me which I took. He message me the following week that i should go for a test which i did to my own surprise i found that i was HIV negative.
