A single mg of MOX is as deadly as 2 MILLION mg of enriched uranium. The half-life of plutonium-239, a component of MOX, is an astounding 24,000 years.
Greatest risk from plutonium is inhalation. Experiments on beagles have shown that a very small amount of plutonium in insoluble form will produce lung cancer with near-one-hundred-percent probability.

Japan's nuclear safety agency says it is highly likely that radioactive materials are leaking from part of the Number 3 reactor of the troubled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.
The Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency spoke to reporters on Friday about an accident in which 3 workers were exposed to radiation in the turbine building of the No. 3 reactor.
It said 3.9 million becquerels of radiation was detected from 1 cubic centimeter of water sampled from the floor of the building. The radiation level was about 10,000 times higher than the water inside a normally operating nuclear reactor.
The agency said the water sample indicated it is HIGHLY likely the leak comes from the reactor itself, not from the pool storing spent nuclear fuel.
