I think the notion that Serbia has seen a spike in cancer of all types across all age cohorts since 2000 because of smoking is one of the most ignorant I've ever heard. Does smoking cause brain cancer in young women?

Maybe you should do some homework...

Radioactivity of the Bega sediment—case study of a contaminated canal

Radioactivity of the Bega sediment—case study of a contaminated canal I Bikit, E Varga, L Čonkić, J Slivka, D Mrđa… - Applied Radiation and …, 2005 - Elsevier The Bega canal is one among many heavily polluted canals in Vojvodina (the northern province of Serbia and Montenegro). In the framework of the revitalization of this canal, the radionuclide content of the sediment was investigated in order to support the safe deposition after excavation. It was found that, in comparison with the Danube sediment and Vojvodina soil, the Bega sediment is contaminated with 238U and 137Cs. The origin of this contamination is discussed. No traces of contamination by nuclear power plants in the region were found.

Serbia has a cancer rate of 291.6 per 100,000 and Slovakia has a cancer rate of 290.4 per 100,000. Please point out when Slovakia got hit with depleted Uranium. Moronic

LOL, there is a radioactive landfill upstream of Bega in Hungary and radioactive waste deposits in Romania, but no it has to be caused by NATO. Moronic

In the Hungarian part of the Tisza river basin, there is a radioactive landfill at Puspokszilagy, upstream of the Zagyva River in the middle of the Tisza region. This site is consid- ered as a pollution “hot spot” by the Regional Inventory of Potential Accident Risk Spots in the Tisza Catchment Area conducted by the ICPDR (2000). There are also several radioactive waste deposits from uranium mining and milling in the Romanian section of the Tisza river basin. They include approximately 6 million m3 of waste rocks from ura- nium mining operations and two tailings ponds containing 6 million tons of wastes from uranium ore processing. Another environmental hazard is the storage at mining sites of low- grade ores with a uranium content of 0.02–0.05 percent, which is not currently processed. These deposits are all potential sources of surface and ground water contamination by radionuclide due to run off effluents and seepage. They are also responsible for airborne radiation resulting from the decay of radon gas released from the ore and dust, which is a health hazard for local inhabitants. These radioactive waste materials also are sometimes inadvertently used for building constructiion.
