Lead Poisoning
According to the annual report of the American Association of Poison Control Centers’ National Poison Data System, there were 3,557 cases of lead poisoning in the United States in 2007. More than 1,900 exposure cases involved children under the age of six. In 2008, there were 71 lead-related product recalls in Connecticut alone.
Most lead poisoning is accidental. But even small amounts of lead entering your bloodstream can cause serious illnesses. Lead paint poisoning over a prolonged period can lead to lower IQs and developmental disabilities in children. It can damage an adult’s blood-forming, nervous, urinary, and reproductive systems.
