Well aware; thanks for adding that here.

KI is only effective if it’s on-hand and taken when you know you need it, BEFORE your glands are saturated (just stating the obvious for the record). Worse, it only protects if you remove yourself from the contamination.

Fyi to all:
http://hps.org/publicinformation/ate/q7000.html

On KI shelf-life. Also stating the obvious, those packs stuffed in bug-out bags/purses? Chop the effective life by 2/3 (heat/cold). Medications of all types in bugout bags & purses should be insulated from temperature extremes.

Obviously the DHHS purchase could be to restock expired supplies; I just find the purchase in conjunction with the prior RFP including ‘bulk drums’ intriguing...

Don’t forget the Sea Lions that are dying on the West Coast due to the radiation.

For the West Coast?

Only about 3 million doses can be delivered and administered.

FukUyama...

We’re never going to be given the real story on this...

$18T debt.
Fed owns most of our debt.
China, India, Russia buying copious amounts of gold; no idea how much we still have. Oh, gold prices are heavily manipulated/suppressed.
1.5B bullets.
Shock about to hit folks on what their wonderful 0bummercare plans have in them and how much they cost, taxes on them.
Overpriced stockmarket.
No Keystone pipeline.
Coal dead.
No nukes allowed for power.
Green subsidies for campaign donations.
About $3T spend for stimulus vanished, no sign or evidence of what it was spent on.
Japan may re-activate their nuke program.
China saber rattling.
A fake 7% unemployment.
All network news mis-educating people.
Most are on unemployment and disability.
...And, most people are still stupid in this country...you know the ones, they drive their $45,000 SUVs by you at 75mph like gas costs $1/gallon and it is likely paid for by you.

2014 will be very interesting.

Buy gold, bull3ts and canned food.

HHS expecting radiation exposure sometime?

Are they expecting another Weiner tweet?

This can’t be related to the Fukushima disaster because at the time of the event, the reactors were shut down and the Uranium-235 was no longer fissioning (which produces, among other elements, Iodine-131). I-131 has a half-life of only eight days when it decays to Iodine-129 which has a half-life of over a billion years. The event happened nearly three years ago. Iodine tablets are no protection against more dangerous fission products like Cesium-137 which has a half-life of 30 years.
