poisoning in everyday life
Explanation:
A bit of a guess but I think they are just trying to draw a distinction between the special risks related to medicine and work and those of a "normal" existance.

poisoning the public domain


Explanation:
There isn't much context to go on but from that short excerpt I have ascertained that it is alluding to poisoning in the medical sense and poisoning in another sense, i.e. corrupting/abusing public domain materials.

Example sentence(s):
  • Copyfraud : Poisoning the Public Domain is an introduction to some of the ways that content providers (websites, publishers, etc.) abuse copyright protections when they use public domain materials
