The 2013 CDC report showed higher population prevalence for an elevated blood lead level (5 micrograms per decaliter or higher) for Black children even in comparison to the most at-risk children for older housing living in a residency built before 1950 (i.e. historical leaded paint use, higher household Pb levels)
Although Black racial identity was recently confirmed as a significant independent predictor for an elevated blood lead level (BLL) in meta-analysis of US childhood BLL studies... why is this not currently used in public health?
