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!

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

Anti-nuclear extremists try to frighten the general public. Scare tactics

As I explained (and you conveniently omitted quoting), radioactive
medical waste is REQUIRED BY FEDERAL LAW TO BE DISPOSED OF IN SPECIFIC
DESIGNATED FACITIES, NOT ON SITE of the medical facility.
