“Mr. Shiroya also said there was a threefold margin for error involved. The outside estimates of total releases would range from as low as 6 percent to as high as 51 percent of the unofficial totals from Chernobyl.”
What is a threefold margin of error??
“Although [Seiji Shiroya, a commissioner of Japan’s Nuclear Safety Commission] did not provide a comparison to Chernobyl, [a release of 630,000 terabecquerels] works out to 34 percent of the official Soviet estimate of emissions and 17 percent of the unofficial higher estimate.”
So what does that mean...a threefold measure of error means it could be the same as Chernobyl and thus the warning from Tepco????
It doesn’t really matter if it is worse than Chernobyl or if it is less than Chernobyl
There is no end in sight and there are a lot of people paying the price for this disaster.
