Abstract
Lead poisoning is an expensive problem for the state of Vermont. Primary prevention of lead poisoning in Vermont could generate at least $40 million. Information about lead testing is inaccessible and the accuracy of lead tests are dependent on proper use and surface material. Because lead tests are designed to be highly sensitive, false positives can occur. Understanding which tests are accurate for different materials and what can interfere with tests can help prevent false positives. Creating and disseminating education materials about lead testing can aid primary prevention by identifying lead hazards.
