Lead-based paint and occupational lead hazards remain the primary exposure sources of lead in New York City (NYC) children and men, respectively. Lead poisoning has also been associated with the use of certain consumer products in NYC. The NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene developed the Intervention Model for Contaminated Consumer Products, a comprehensive approach to identify and reduce exposure to lead and other hazards in consumer products. The model identifies hazardous consumer products, determines their availability in NYC, enforces on these products, and provides risk communication and public education. Implementation of the model has resulted in removal of thousands of contaminated products from local businesses and continues to raise awareness of these hazardous products.
含铅涂料和职业性铅危害仍然是导致纽约市(NYC)儿童和男性体内铅暴露的主要来源,分别为。铅中毒也与 NYC 某些消费产品的使用有关。纽约市卫生和心理卫生部制定了《受污染消费产品干预模式》,这是一种全面的方法,旨在识别和减少消费产品中铅和其他危害物的暴露。该模型确定了危险的消费产品,确定它们在 NYC 的供应情况,对这些产品进行执法,并提供风险沟通和公众教育。该模型的实施已导致当地企业数千种受污染产品被下架,并继续提高人们对这些危险产品的认识。
