    "
    Authorities in the Netherlands found about 900 women’s handbags that had originated in India and were decorated with metal rings laced with radioactive Cobalt-60 on each bag’s shoulder strap.

    Thousands of everyday products and materials containing radioactive metals are surfacing across the United States and around the world."

    Common kitchen cheese graters, reclining chairs, women’s handbags and tableware manufactured with contaminated metals have been identified, some after having been in circulation for as long as a decade. So have fencing wire and fence posts, shovel blades, elevator buttons, airline parts and steel used in construction.
