- National Institute of Public Health, Prague, Czech Republic
The purpose of the paper is to contribute to a discussion on the significance of the mining wastes as a potential source of child exposure to lead. The complexity of the problem is demonstrated on the examples of the recent and earlier epidemiological studies and stress is put on the limitations of the epidemiological research in that field of environmental epidemiology.
