>Do you have evidence that the spent nuclear fuel from power stations has killed people? Did you mean intentional Polonium 210 exposure from decay chains, medical mistakes, or unintentional worker exposure to hot garbage. I could have a look for you, but Google should already give several reasonable results to keep one entertained. =3 |

What do you mean "decay chains"? Po-210 decays to Pb-206 which is stable. So you mean Po-210 decay. Let's shut down the chemical industry because someone attempted to poison The Skripals. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisoning_of_Sergei_and_Yulia_... .
> medical mistakes
Spent nuclear fuel is generally not used for medical isotopes. They specially prepare samples for irradiation to not have to use reprocessing, e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobalt-60#Production .
> I could have a look for you
It would be illuminating to see what you find reasonable.
