Research from New Orleans linking soil lead and blood lead

[Sara Perl Egendorf]

Hello Legacy Lead, 

I hope this message finds you all well. Howard Mielke, whom many of us have had the privilege of learning form, just published decades of work evaluating soil lead and blood lead changes over time in New Orleans. The article was just published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. 

Please read, enjoy, and share widely!

All the best,

Perl
