This week our group has chosen to narrow the broad topic of Lead Poisoning down to a more specific issue of Lead Poisoning specializing in children. Our main motivations for deciding to focus on youth lead exposure are because it is more common in children in comparison to adults, children absorb lead more easily, and since children’s immune systems are not as strong the amount of lead their body can tolerate is much smaller than people who are older.
Since we have 5 weeks to complete our project we are going to narrow down our focus even further. We are planning on focusing on informing parents why they should request for their children to get their blood levels tested for poisonous metal whenever they go in to the doctor. We want to create an informational poster that is clear and concise. Instead of just posting it around town, we want to ask UCLA and other colleges and people to post our poster on social media. We are hoping that this would gain support because of how credible the colleges are.
