The Cobalt-60 in that cinnamon stick has a half-life of about 5 years. It says it was made in 1963 so with the drop in radioactivity you've probably got a few months left to live!
12 half lives is 4096x drop in radioactivity.
Your overestimating the lethality of radiation. The "Demon Core" guy lasted 9 days. The firefighters from Chernobyl lasted a month. The only criticality events that I can find with immediate fatalities also involve steam explosions.
For those who know, steam is scarier than radiation or fire.
I think you're reading their comment too literally. I think it's meant as a joke that the stick is nearing its "EOL", not the person holding it, but they're wilfully misinterpreting it.
I don't know what commenter meant, but it's important to spread accurate information about radiation and nuclear tech.
Personally I wouldn’t be holding that rod long enough to read the date and do the maths. Just out of healthy caution.
it says drop and run, do that first.
i went down a rabbit hole on cobalt 60 after seeing this. Cobalt 60 can actually kill you in less than an hour from acute exposure.

You are not considering what @ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca is considering.
OP ate that stick with the Kellogs™
Burned my whole index finger with microwave-heated vegetables.
