You didn't even look at the article, did you?

The health effects of the Chernobyl accident have been the subject of unprecedented study by health professionals and unprecedented speculation and exaggeration by parts of the media. This Appendix summarises the following authoritative and expert assessments of the situation:

The 2006 report of the World Health Organization (WHO). Health Effects of the Chernobyl Accident and Special Health Care Programmesa.

Exposures and effects of the Chernobyl accident, Annex J of the 2000 Report of the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation to the General Assembly.

Estimated Long Term Health Effects of the Chernobyl Accident, Background Paper 3 of the April 1996 conference in Vienna, One Decade After Chernobylc.

Lessons of Chernobyl - with particular reference to thyroid cancer by Zbigniew Jaworowski, former chairman of the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation.

Are you saying the sources I cited (members of various UN organizations) are shills for the nuclear industry?

WHO was harnessed early by the UN. They were forbidden from releasing information without the express approval of the UN Nuclear agencies. WHO is trying to regain its autonomy and ‘right’ to speak freely but it has a ways to go.

Try to understand that countries with nuclear power defend their nuclear power. Hans Blix, head UN nuke expert, is on video tape explaining that he only accepted and reported 1/10 of the radiation reported by Gorbachev’s nuke experts. Gorby is on record responding in shock to that decision. Yes, the UN and WHO are more than willing to lie and distort. That’s why the link I provided points to a document by physicians who are pushing back against the GLOBAL denial of Chernobyl. That is the banner under the website you linked - ‘representing GLOBAL nuclear organizations and professionals’.
