I understand your point about lead paint.
As i said, it was an interesting theory on gab. Lead blankets protected my organs during cobalt radiation treatments, back in the 60’s. So, I know for a fact that lead can sometimes protect us.

Lead can harm children in certain applications, but it can save children too, when applied correctly. The meme asks us to think differently about the things we were told would harm us—or wouldn’t.

It's not just about the paint. In 1978 lead was removed from gasoline as an additive. the gasoline engine fumes settled all over the place and people had permanent health effects as a result.

A charm from a bracelet that had been mostly made of lead was accidently swallowed by a child and the child died before the Drs. figured out why the child got progressively sicker. The only part of that charm that wasn't lead was the paint coating. By the way, it was made in China.

Lead was banned in France as far back as 1840. Australia banned it's use in around 1880. The US. didn't ban it's use until 1978 because the Paint manufacturer's had a good lobby effort. Many old paint contractor's had serious health problems.
