I think there is a legitimate issue here. Industry and commercial interests constantly abuse things for profit, and silver will be no exception. Just look at the history of companies including cocaine and opium in an increasing multitude of over the counter and everyday products, including those intended for babies... Often, regulation is called for, but the most simplistic way is a ban.
Silver kills germs just as antibiotics do. Left to itself, commercial interests would indiscriminately use antibiotics for everything, in an environmentally abusive manner, as they have done. Silver is a similar thing and would be abused similarly. It has it's place and should be used responsibly. The issue of other substances which are true 'nanoparticles' may also have unfortunate effects and should be looked at. Dan > -----Original Message----- > From: M. G.
