Lead is a toxic metal that can harm the brain, kidneys, liver, blood, and reproductive system. Children are especially vulnerable because their brains and nervous systems are still developing. Lead exposure can contribute to learning difficulties, developmental delays, and behavioral problems. In adults, lead exposure can increase the risk of high blood pressure, kidney damage, and cardiovascular disease. Pregnant women can also pass lead to their developing babies, potentially affecting fetal growth and development.

During National Lead Poisoning Prevention Week, South Central Health District encourages everyone to learn about the dangers of lead exposure and take steps to protect their families. Lead poisoning is preventable, and awareness is the first step toward prevention!
