I meant to say CT, Computed Tomography, which involves radiation.

A neonatal abdominal CT effective dose is 20 mSv.

Most nuclear waste has much lower surface dose rate than a CT scan!

....and the waste is kept very carefully contained, away from the public.

Yet I don't see any anti-nuclear demonstrators at the hospitals.

Anti-nuclear extremists try to frighten the general public. Scare tactics
to keep us dependent on expensive polluting coal and fossil fuels.
