The gov's office is requesting the
total number of tests and EBLs for
Flint for the month of October in
2014, 2013, 2012, etc.. Going back
as far as we can (10 years?). Can we
get those figures tomorrow morning?
I've seen some figures but not sure if
they were final/ approved or pulled
in the same method as our report for
this October.
Thank you,

1. EBLinvestigations: the investigation report, including the water information, should be provided to the MDHHS
Healthy Homes Section within two weeks on average after the investigation is completed. This includes time for
receipt of specimen test results (water, dust wipes, soil).
2. Elevated EBLs: there were 18 children with elevated EBLs shown in the summary report as of October 30,
2015. | have the more detailed age breakdown for the updated report which would show data from 10/1/2015
to 11/13/2015. There are 22 children with elevated EBLs. Of children < 6, 14 have levels 5 — 14, 2 have levels 15
—44. Among children 6 to 17 years, 5 have levels 5— 14 and 1 has a level 15-44. In summary, 19 children fall
into the 5 — 14 category and 3 in the 15 -44 category. So most kids are in the 5 — 14 mcg/dL category if they
have elevated EBLs. The table is attached. Epidemiology is not planning on sending these more detailed tables
up to you routinely, but this table gives you a feel for the testing by age group and whether or not the test, if
known, is venous or capillary.
