"If not for the Kodak company in Rochester New York, many of the government’s deliberate radiation releases may not have come to light. Not long after the Trinity Sight blast in Alamogordo, New Mexico, in June 1946, customers started complaining to the Kodak company in New York about fogged film. A scientist from Kodak realized that the film was packed in corn husks from Indiana. He took samples that were analyzed, and they were found to contain Iodine-131. Kodak complained to the government. Six years later, as people went about their lives in Rochester, they had no idea that the Geiger counter readings at the Kodak plant read 25 times higher than usual. Kodak complained again. After these two incidents, the government provided the Kodak corporation with maps and potential fallout zones for future tests. However, the people were never warned. Not by the government, or by Kodak. Dairy farmers never knew, children playing in snow saturated with radioactive fallout never knew, pregnant mothers never knew
An internal memo from Philip Morris in 1961 acknowledged the presence of strontium-90 in tobacco. The Surgeon General C. Everett Koop stated that radioactivity, rather than tar, accounts for at least 90% of all smoking-related lung cancers. The Center for Disease Control concluded "Americans are exposed to far more radiation from tobacco smoke than from any other source." U.S. patent no. 4,194,514 describes the process used to remove radioactive polonium from their products."
