People miss that radiation is like Wattage.  The higher the radiation
(Wattage) the shorter the (battery) life producing it.

So if something is highly radioactive, it will only last a short while. 
If something lasts a long time, it is NOT very radioactive.

News reports of radiation lasting 80,000,000 years AND being highly
radioactive are just sensationalism like calling every explosion a
detonation.  It sells so much more news and makes every event seem life
threatening to get the demographic worked up.
