Impact of exposure on cognition estimates 2.6 point IQ loss; that is, less than half of the loss attributed to early and heavy exposure to cannabis THC. Yep; damage worse than lead for those so exposed.

This paper is crazy. Harmful blood lead levels in childhood were "nearly universal" in the US for people who are currently middle-aged (born 1951-1980). Think about all the potential that was lost due to this.
@birlios I'm not a big fan of IQ as measurement but some people believe a lot of Americans are nit as smart because of the lead used in gas. It can't be much different here 🤷♂️ https://t.co/j9FdyL2kzh
