Yes, I got the Polonium reference.  I was living in London and working at UCL at that time, and poor Litvinenko died in UCL hospital, right next to the building where my office was located.  It is an continuing scandal that Litvinenko's murderer, Lugovoy, now a member of the Russian parliament, has been protected by Russian authorities from prosecution.

BTW, the mention of "poloniumitis" alludes to the 2006 poisoning of
Alexander Litvinenko, a Russian political refugee residing in London.
