Revisit the Polonium-210 Trail

Britain's Home Secretary John Reid reported that 24 sites had been investigated for Polonium-210 contamination, and that 12 of them had shown traces of radioactivity. "It is at very low levels in some cases, at higher levels in others, though none of them, we think, is a health hazard of any significance," Reid said. The investigation also includes five aircraft, two of which have been confirmed to be contaminated. [Click on map to enlarge]
