Very little info thus far other than Strontium-90 at 150 times background levels located 245km from Fukushima. I'll post more if he gets permission to translate the full article.

It’s not going to do much harm unless ingested.
Was the sample taken from milk or something?

That has about a 30 year half life. They will be dealing with higher then background Strontium-90 Levels for about 200 years (assuming of course that half life decay occurs at its rated decay rate). And of course that assumes that another one of these old and defective BWR’s does not blow up in the meantime.

A Becquerel is 1 atomic disintegration per second.
1.5 Bq/kg means that 3 atoms of the ~10^24 (1 with 24 zeroes after it) in a kilogram of material disintegrates every 2 seconds.
This is utterly insignificant.
