@conradmillermd

Some of this radioactivity has a very short half-life but is it true that the activity will never reach zero so it will never totally go away?

@nickharvey7 So the radioactivity/radioactive emission of alpha beta or gamma rays or neutron beams does continue for say plutonium-239 for 240,000 to 480,000 years with its 24,000 yr half life. Strontium has a half life of ~30 yrs and thus a hazardous life of about 300-600 yrs that you have to worry about the human (and animal and plant) body taking it up, recognizing it as something like calcium. Humans incorporate strontium into bones & bone marrow where it causes leukemia & bone cancer.

@nickharvey7 Every radioactive element or radionuclide produced in a nuclear plant by fission of uranium has a 'half life' during which it is emitting radiation that can strike DNA of your child or a dandelion or a lion. For iodine-131 this is 8 days. After 8 days, 1/2 the radioactivity remains emitting its beams. Scientists say each radionuclide has a 'hazardous life' during which U have to worry about these emissions, that corresponds to 10-20 half lives. Plutonium-239 24,000 yr 1/2 life.

How can web protect from radiation ? dose borax repel or neutralize radiation ? please tell us what to do ! please

@truthteller19672 Hate to tell you that I do not know what specifically can repel radioactive particles/radiation. The healthier you are, and live, the better chance you'll have. One example: you have cilia in your lungs, little hairs that wave the foreign particles up and out of your lungs. If you smoke, you kill the cells with these cilia along the bronchial tree, so a particle of plutonium would have a better chance to get deeper down into your lungs. Otherwise obvious answer: close nukes
