Diagnostic and Screening Procedures for Lead Poisoning

Jane S. Lin-Fu M.D.1

1 Maternal and Child Health Service, U.S. Public Health Service, 5600 Fisher Lane, Rockville, Maryland 20852

As a Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics and a Pediatric Consultant to the Maternal and Child Health Service, U.S. Public Health Service, I have noted with interest in the Newsletter (December 15, 1970) that the Academy's Committee on Environmental Hazards has endorsed the U.S. Public Health Service's Statement, "Medical Aspects of Childhood Lead Poisoning," recently released by the Surgeon General. But I am rather surprised at the exceptions the Committee took to the Statement, and I would like to take exception to these exceptions.
