6 in Mexico may have radiation exposure
Federal police blocked access Friday to a central Mexico hospital where six people were reported to have been admitted with radiation exposure. An official familiar with the case confirmed Mexican media reports that the six have been admitted to the general hospital in the city of Pachuca and may have been exposed to a stolen source of highly radioactive cobalt-60. The official said only one person so far was dizzy and vomiting, symptoms of severe radiation poisoning.
