Ocala to remove fluoride from drinking water this week

OCALA, Fla. — On Tuesday, Ocala will begin the process of taking fluoride out of its water supply.

The city has been adding the mineral to prevent cavities since 1961.

The removal follows a new law signed by Gov. Ron DeSantis last month that bans cities and counties from adding it into water.

That law goes into effect July 1.
