SO?
Reactor Coolant is not in contact with the U235 enriched material. It's not comtamianted by radiation. It's the same as drinking tap water or bottled water.
He's not drinking water that's been in DIRECT contact with the Uranium
If you leak U235 atoms into that collant water and Ricter Drank that water he would have died long before he died from old age.
Enriched U235 is only 3% and that's enough to make a bomb.
