**** where we’ve reduced the number of children with lead poisoning by 75 percent over the last decade.****
In my 65 years, most of when lead was in everything, I have NEVER known anyone to have lead poisoning, except out of the barrel of a gun.
In my 38 years, I haven’t, either.
In a lot of ways, the lead scare was just as absurd as the DDT scare. Granted, the DDT scare cost millions in Africa their lives, but it’s similiar because it was fueled by the same kind of junk science.
