Original Note:
The use of a lead coffin for Marie Curie’s body may have been used because of concern in 1934 about radium contamination, however the reason has never been verified. In fact, no significantly increased radium contamination was detected in her body. https://sfrp.asso.fr/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/Exhumation-Marie-Curie.pdf
