Dear Mrs. Keys t
I am
analyses made on the
other emp'^^ee^wio^^name^ar^TSicatec on the report
sheet. With two exceptions the lead concentrations in these
urine samples were quite high and were strongly suggestive of
serious lead exposure. I refer you to my previous letter concerning the possibility that one or more of these samples
may have been contaminated w^ti^lea^duts 5.n the process of
collection. The result
while possibly
correct is sohici a^^eope^^^S^uapicioa. The
others on
and are indicative of
severe expaSttp^n; the results can^^Paccepted as accurate.
The results obtained on^HIIHt and be indicative of lead absWJPHon,
are high enough to not in the importantly
dangerous zone. However, it is entirely possible that results of that order of magnitude, (anything in excess of 0.10 milli
grams per liter) should be associated with symptoms of lead
intoxication. It does not follow necessarily that any of these men are ill.
Very truly yours.
