What can cause a 7 week old's white blood cell count to be 2.4?

Numerous causes: there are several reasons why a 7 week olds WBC (white blood cell) count could be 2.4. Why was the blood drawn in the first place on a 7 week old? Usually the reason why the blood was drawn can provide info on the cause (i.e. infection) along with other symptoms and a full history.
