If you cannot see the insanity then your brain does not function. If several of these exploded all at once due to some natural calamity then the whole world would be unfit to live in. As far as how many people having died. The beauty for people like you is that while the science of what happens when exposed to radiation clearly indicates that it causes health problems or death....The beauty for people like you is that you can claim that every death that happens was not caused by radiation. Since the effect is not instantaneous in this case then you can claim it does not exist. Science however says that you are wrong.
There are stories of people getting sick in Japan, and the US. and there are stories of people having died from radiation. Their are reports of a large sample of children with thyroid problems from this. But if you think that the government or the nuclear power industry is going to come out and advertise it, then your just gullible.
I don’t have to prove that someone didn’t die of radiation...hysterical people making wild and ignorant claims do. That’s how science works.
BTW, the answer to my question is ZERO! Despite all reports that workers in the immediate aftermath of the disaster received very high levels of direct exposure to radiation and contamination (there is a big difference), and despite claims that some of those said workers would surely die quickly from acute high radiation exposure, non have. I’m not saying there won’t be some deaths, but thus far all the dire predictions have been wrong. I expect the same to be true over the long term.
Yes, some people MAY suffer effects from increased exposure from this incident (we ALL are exposed to radiation, every minute of every day of our lives), but that does not necessarily correlate to people dying of said exposure.
Radiation can cause thyroid problems in children, HOWEVER, this is very treatable and almost never fatal.
But hey, my brain must not be functioning....must be from all the years I spent working on and operating a nuclear power plant...
