1. the show says it's because the skaikru have developed some like...radiation resistance or something...so by theory if the mountain men transfused the skaikru's blood into themselves, they'd develop aforementioned radiation resistance too.

2. .........of course, that's about as scientifically inaccurate as scientifically inaccurate can get. in the real world, blood has NOTHING to do with ~radiation resistance~ - if someone wanted to develop radioresistance, they would, theoretically, expose themselves to small bursts of ionizing radiation and that'd be the end of it. (this is still unproven, though, and definitely unknown to work on humans.) but that doesn't make for much drama, so. transfusion of blood it is...

3. as far as we know, no, it isn't connected to the vial becca injected herself with.
