Here[1] is what the gov't says on the topic. Mostly stay way from water that's near farmland and after heavy rainfall. Apart from that it's quite safe here. As for radioactivity, AFAIK the primary source would be radon from granite and similar rocks. It shouldn't be a problem for a lake, though can be a concern if you have a well[2].

This lake is surrounded on almost all sides by farmland: https://maps.app.goo.gl/FyZoCWM1YwAvWcCi9 https://maps.app.goo.gl/FyZoCWM1YwAvWcCi9

  True, however the farmland-proximity advice is primarily due to bacteria from natural fertilizers (ie cow dung etc), and those bacteria wouldn't survive freezing. That said, the virus concern is probably not invalid, so I'd get my ice cubes from somewhere with a less exciting story.
