הסוכנות לאנרגיה אטומית של פולין טוענים שזה לא מסוכן, כי זו כמות קטנה וישנה.
Spokeswoman Monika Skotniczna said the cobalt — used in machines that made technical measurements — does not pose a threat to the public due to the small amount stolen, and its advanced age.
"These are old sources, so they don't have high activity," Skotniczna said. The only danger is if the Cobalt-60 is taken out of its lead shields, but even then "it's not life threatening," she added.
Though cobalt can be used to make a so-called radioactive "dirty bomb," Skotniczna said the quantity stolen was not enough to make anything dangerous.
"The amount is too small. It is useless for terrorists," she said.
