Welcome to Paging Dr. Gupta. You know, I've come to think of this as my office hours where we all sort of huddle around and chat. And thanks to so many of you for joining us. Every week here, I take your health questions. They take center stage. I try and make sense for you of the health issues that matter most to you. You know, this week I was in Milwaukee. There's been a troubling discovery in the city's public schools that has parents and teachers and health officials pretty concerned. It's about lead paint. Each year, about a thousand children in Milwaukee test positive for lead poisoning. Thousand kids. It's because many of the buildings are aging, but at the same time they are still open, still full of students, and still part of daily life. It's a challenging problem. I just got back from that assignment and I wanted to share some of our reporting with you. Not only what I saw on the ground, but I think what you need to know about lead exposure and how it can affect children and adults alike.

Any building built before 1978 in America probably has lead based paint in it, which could poison kids. Our story starts here. Milwaukee in January. A kid was found to have four times the amount of lead in their blood as expected. So they started to investigate and they did not find any lead in the child's home. And for the first time, they were able to link lead poisoning in children to the city's aging schools. Specifically, they found evidence of lead containing paint in the elementary school bathroom. Since then, at least three more children have tested positive for elevated blood lead levels. And eight schools have also been found to have unsafe lead levels as well. In fact, here at Westside Academy, these kids had to be relocated to another school. Just this week, they found evidence of red flaking paint on the outside and lots of problems on the inside. Paint that was flaking on doors and walls and windowsills. Cities now got a big job on their hands. They have to inspect around 100 buildings.
