Well, I wouldn't want to snort the stuff daily, but its toxicity
has been overrated in the popular press.
Epidemiologic studies of workers [even wartime workers with impressive
body burdens/ exposures] in a number of uranium bomb-making centers have
found ~ no health effects.
I haven't heard much about Pu-workers.
