Fears that Russia will start a nuclear war have sparked panic-buying of radiation-blocking potassium iodide in the US and Europe — with the hard-to-get pills being sold for more than 10 times the usual price on sites such as eBay.
The largest distributors of the pills, which can counteract the effects of radiation poisoning, told CNN Business they have put a rush on making more after being overwhelmed with demand.

If the vaporization or radiation, or nuke winter doesn’t kill you, the survivors or famine will.
There is no radiation blocking pill.
I disagree, my toilet paper worked just fine.
Well maybe they’ll live long enough to die of thirst, hunger, exposure, or get hit by falling debris. Our education system sucks, clear through college. WALOS
Idiots strike again.
Order now and I’ll send you pills that’ll turn Gamma, beta, alpha, and neutrons to vitamin C. Never mind it looks like rabbit dropping.ls. Three of these little round pills and you’re radiation proof. Unless you’re at ground zero. Just have your credit card ready and call 1-800-BR-549. Ask for Peggy. 🥴
I have some pills. I’ve restocked every couple of years.
But I have a large AfR base 8 miles from my house. And the Pratt and Whitney factory is 10 miles the other way.
I think Potassium pills won’t do me a lot of good.
Seaweed also contains lots of iodine, so expect looting of sushi shops and Asian groceries right after the radioactive dust settles.
They don’t block radiation. But they do protect the Thyroid.
If you are many miles away from a strike, they actually perform their job.
If you are on the East coast….and there is. Full blown strike…never mind the pills.
If Putin nukes a few European cities - (but doesn’t start an all out nuclear war) the pills will help. Radiation will travel around the world for a time.
Trivia
BR-549 is the boat ramp number where the Hee Haw guy kept his fishing boat at the marina.
I heard that somewhere...
It’s not just iodine. It has to be potassium iodide.
Oh yeah? Where’d Peggy come from? We can get to the wonderful little round pills latter. 🙂
Anyone subject to this line of thinking also fall into the category of failing to understand the concept of ‘saving one bullet’.
Mass hysteria is real. Bet.
Like the toilet paper in 2020. I don’t think pills will help..

Well, if the pills are big enough, you can plug up your problem, and not need toilet paper.
