Status Updates From A Very Expensive Poison

Litvenenko drank less than a grain of sand’s equivalent of polonium and about 10% of it absorbed into his bloodstream, and that was more than enough to make him critically ill and die.

This section is rough if you don’t do well with descriptions of vomiting. And we are up to three separate hotels that had polonium dumped down their guest room sinks 🙄

These KGB assassins are not the best and brightest. Leaving radioactive traces all over town as they traipse around to restaurants and clubs, take a rickshaw tour, look for women, and end up dumping two vials (so far) of polonium down hotel drains. Two months after dumping a vials and mopping residue up with a hotel towel, the unwashed towel was found in the hotel basement and radiation was still ridiculously high.
