Sorry but this article is dis-information since it really does not tell the true threat of a dirty bomb which is accumulation of high energy particles through digestion and respiration.
The article only talks of radiation poisoning through close proximity but if you enhale or digest even minute amount of high energy dust particles it will cause cancer and/or leukaemia.
The death toll numbering up will be slow but will be consistant for over a five+ year period.
