We do not have an exact number. In 1997, there were 900,000 children ages 1-5 that were identified as having dangerous blood lead levels, Due to the population growth since then, despite efforts to control lead exposures, I would estimate between 750,000 and 1 million children are at severe risk of lead poisoning.
