For the first time in more than a half-century, a new standard for how much fluoride should be put in communities’ drinking water supply as an aid in preventing tooth decay was proposed Monday by the Obama administration.
The new recommended standard of 0.7 milligrams per liter of water replaces the recommendation of between 0.7 and 1.2 milligrams per liter, which had been in effect since fluoridation started becoming widespread in 1962.

https://www.cnbc.com/2015/04/27/smile-new-water-fluoridation-level-called-for-by-government.htmlReally begs the question why is it recommended at all.
1 gallon of tap water contains at least approx 2.64978 milligrams of fluoride.
The average daily amount of total water Americans consume is about 3.18 liters.
That's 2.226 milligrams of fluoride daily
15.582 milligrams of fluoride weekly
62.328 milligrams of fluoride monthly
747.936 milligrams of fluoride yearly
the lethal dose for most adult humans is estimated at 5 to 10 g
So no, not murder. But definitely not good for you.
