This is the point where there seems to be a misunderstanding. We are not talking about cesium, we are talking about the additive. The additive was a cesium salt - very, very different from elemental cesium.In reference to cesium salts, your CDC document states:"Animal studies indicate that cesium is of relatively low toxicity"."No reports were located regarding adverse effects in humans or animals following acute-, intermediate-, or chronic-duration inhalation or dermal exposure to stable cesium".If it cannot be mixed with the fuel for any length of time, it is very unlikely that it was stored mixed with JP-7. This would significantly limit any exposure. It would also make it very unlikely that the additive was part of the JP-7 manufacturing process.
