Lead paint was once commonly used in buildings for its durability and color retention. However, the presence of lead in paint poses serious health risks, especially to children and pregnant women. Ingesting or inhaling lead particles from deteriorating lead paint can lead to lead poisoning, which can cause developmental delays, learning disabilities, and other adverse health effects. It is crucial to be aware of the hazards of lead paint exposure and take proactive measures to address any potential risks.
