2 RESPONSE TO WATER CONTAMINATION IN FLINT, MI
3 Background on Flint Water Contamination Timeline Change to Flint river water Genesee County issues public health emergency; Water source switched back to Detroit water Federal assistance begins, under a Unified Coordination Group (UCG) CDC deactivates EOC, continues to provide assistance April 2014 Aug Oct. 2, 2015 Dec. 14, 2015 Jan Feb. 1, 2016 March 15, 2016 May 17-19, 2016 Dr. Mona Hanna-Attisha publishes study of blood lead levels Flint Mayor Weaver declared a state of emergency CDC EOC activated under a Unified Coordination Group (UCG) CASPER conducted

5 NCEH/ATSDR ACTIVITIES IN FLINT, MI
6 Enhancing Blood Lead Surveillance in Flint, MI (Guidance issued February 2016) Because of the situation in Flint, Michigan, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends immediate testing for lead levels for all children who were 0-6 years of age between 10/1/2015 and 4/1/2016 who live in the City of Flint, live in a home using City of Flint water, or who attend school, childcare or often spend time with a caregiver in the City of Flint All children who have a blood lead level 5 ug/dl should be placed with a case manager. This screening needs to be completed by April 1, 2016.
7 Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) Blood lead levels among children aged <6 years living in the City of Flint, MI, Released June 17, 2016 Report added Proportion of children aged <6 years in Flint, MI with BLLs 5 µg/dl was significantly higher during switch to Flint Water System Implication for health practice Encourage use of NSF certified water filters to remove lead Use filtered or bottled water for drinking, cooking, and brushing teeth Photo source: MLive.com
8 MMWR Methods Examined distribution of BLLs 5µg/dL among children aged <6 years before, during, and after switch in water source Used cross-sectional analysis conducted during four time intervals Confirmed BLLs 5 µg/dl defined as having one venous blood lead test 5 µg/dl or two capillary blood lead tests 5 µg/dl drawn within 12 weeks of each other Analyses limited to children living in area serviced by FWS at time of test Pre-Water Source Switch Early Water Source Switch Late Water Source Switch Post-Water Source Switch Before switch in water supply to Flint River During switch in water supply to Flint River When there was boil water advisory from city officials After water supply switched from Flint River to DWS 04/25/ /24/ /25/ /02/ /03/ /15/ /16/ /16/2016
9 Table 3. Multivariate adjusted odds ratios* comparing odds of elevated blood lead levels 5 µg/dl among children aged <6 years, by select covariates OR (95% CI) Time period Pre-Water Source Switch 1.0 Early Water Switch 1.46 ( ) Late Water Switch 1.28 ( ) Post-Water Source Switch 0.75 ( ) Age group <1 year years 2.25 ( ) 3 5 years 1.36 ( ) Season Winter (Dec Feb) 1.0 Spring (Mar May) 1.41 ( ) Summer (Jun Aug) 2.14 ( ) Fall (Sep Nov) 2.25 ( ) *Odds of having BLLs 5 µg/dl during the pre-water switch period compared with the early, late and post-water source switch periods. Flint resident defined as living in a house served by the Flint Water Service (FWS) at the time of test. At time of test.
10 MMWR Conclusions The use of water from the Flint River without proper corrosion control exposed the residents to excess amounts of lead. All children aged <6 years living in the City of Flint should have their blood tested for lead, if they have not had a blood lead test since October Case management should be provided to all children with BLLs 5 µg/dl.
11 Rash Investigation Consisted of four parts Questionnaire (390 interviews conducted) Clinical referral to a dermatologist (122 examined) Water sampling in houses (170 samples) Evaluation of water quality data from water treatment plant Study found that one possible explanation for the majority of eczema-related rashes is the fluctuations in water quality while residents were using Flint River water Community participation in roll out
12 Point-of-Use Water Filter Testing Worked with EPA to assess the effectiveness of the filters when the water concentrations are above the 150 ppb certification level Confirmed filters effectively remove lead from water even at very high levels Determined drinking filtered tap water is safe for everyone, including pregnant women and children

19 Data Collection May 17 19, 2016 Two- person interview teams assigned to two or three clusters and instructed to go to every n th household Three attempts at each household before replacement
20 Data Analysis SAS 9.3 used for data analysis Data weighted to adjust for non-random sampling and obtain population estimates Generated frequencies and percentages with 95% confidence intervals Compared 95% confidence intervals to Michigan BRFSS data Statistically significant if the confidence intervals did not overlap Tracking form data were used to calculate completion, cooperation and contact rates
