Dataset Description
Definition
The number of children tested >72 months of age.
Data Source
Delaware Department of Health and Social Services, Division of Public Health, Childhood Blood Lead Surveillance in Delaware
Notes
Not all of the population <72 months of age is required to have a test each year: in 2021, the Delaware General Assembly updated the Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Act which now mandates lead screening of all children at or around 12 months of age and again at 24 months of age.
