What level of lead in blood is toxic for a child?

letter noting the absence of public involvement in this process makes 2 relevant but, in my opinion, inadequate points: (1) the public had the opportunity to react to drafts of the code on the American Public Health Association Web site and (2) feedback was solicited “from a broad range of stakeholders, including the public.” The response does not mention even one non–health professional person or organization that provided feedback or was specifically solicited for feedback. It also does not explain why there was no non–health professional (“public”) person on the drafting committee. Sometime soon, I hope, this committee will enrich the code with the experiences and views of the public regarding the ethical aspects of public health practice.
