Children need to be shielded from lead exposure. It can cause lower IQ's in developing brains. Pregnant women need to be shielded from lead exposure, probably for the same reason. Lead based paint and consuming fish are the big items to watch out for. Don't use pewter cups, plates or tableware for eating.

Washing hands is always a good idea.

Not sure what problem adults have with lead exposure, if any.

Considering the amount of time I spent as a child melting lead, getting lead fillings and playing with mercury, it is a wonder I can even functio.

Even way to more funnier.
