The author uses "cancer-causing radioactive materials" as click-bait for readers. It really has no merit in her article.   Then she steers you to the more likely sources: ...poisoned the groundwater with high levels of dichloroethane, trichloroethylene, vinyl chloride and benzene...
Yes, chemical carcinogens exude biomarkers for carcinogenesis.

I am pretty sure that radium-226 and strontium-90 are cancer causing isotopes and bone seekers. He had a leukemia so there is a possible link.

"It waits 30 years and then hits you like a sack of potatoes". "When you talk about genetic mutations, that's a lot of variables"

Yeah ok, whatever you say Hermann Muller...and your fraudulent LNT BS.
