Scenario:
The Hazard of Lead Poisoning
Isn't
lead poisoning something that happens to someone else? We frequently
see newspaper accounts, such as the September 4, 2001 article in Miami,
FL, that speak about this silent, yet deadly intruder. Unfortunately,
practices most of us engage in can potentially create a hazard, especially
to youngsters. Lead poisoning is especially harmful for those in their
formative years. One condition related to lead poisoning is the public's
lack of knowledge about the many ways lead may be introduced to the
human system. Photo:

on the impact of lead poisoning as well as the causes and preventative
measures.
