According to Wikipedia. . . . so it must be gospel!, a 100 grams of Polonium 210 is produced by Russia every year, and 1 gram could kill anywhere up to 20 million people.
What if, a doomsday cult like Aum, or a terrorist group such as Al Qaida managed to get hold of or puchase a substantial amount of P-210, lets just say for arguments sake around 10 grams.
How easy would it be to take a specified dosage (0.5 grams each) and add it to the water supply of a twenty or so water treatment works in a European, Japanese or North American city.
Would it be viable? and if so what would be the consequences?
