What causes Flint water problems is hysteria.

About 6% of children from a small area of Flint have blood levels of
5 ug/dl.

Almost 90% of 1970s-era children had blood lead levels in excess of 10 ug/dl
and they all turned out fine.

While reducing the lead levels in the water supply is generally a good
thing, the current level of contamination is no more than a slight
irritant and easily handled by not giving babies tap water to drink.

Yet another phoney crisis fueled by hysterical junk science.
