A hydrogen warhead is fairly clean after the initial blast of heat,gamma, neutrons, trace tritium and the pressure shock wave. The atomic warhead used to trigger the hydrogen bomb is the dirty part.U235 uranium or worse plutonium PU 239. Plutonium is dirty nasty stuff that is a chemically poisonous heavy metal. The atomic fission daughters tend to be unstable isotopes of iodine, cesium, strontium and potassium. Which are chemically close enough to calcium or potassium and readily absorbed by the body to build bones etc. Or into the thyroid.
