This chart doesn’t show the adult blood lead levels boomers had through continuing exposure. They didn’t get as huge a dose as kids, but they got it for longer.
But yeah, you’re understanding why I am asking why people think this is becoming less of an issue. It’s just shifting a bit. As a GenXer myself, I would probably be ok with an age limit of like 40 to hold political office at this point. Neither we nor the boomers can be trusted.

To be honest, I don’t know how much I trust younger people either with all the plastic in our brains.
