After 911, I gave all my brothers and sisters and their children a 14 pill packet of potassium idodide as a Christmas present. It will never go bad in storage...get some.
This treatment will protect you and give you enough time to move away from the source of contamination.
Belgium Hands Out Millions Of Iodine Pills In Case Of Nuclear Accident
I got some reagent grade KI salt after Fukushima. I had found a recipe to make KI-water for dosing. I think that the salt and the recipe are all stashed in the bunker somewhere.
What’s legit?
Some are selling for over $2k.
Incredible, I ordered mine today!
Everybody wants some

If your radiation is just the right amount it could help!
All the usual places are out. nukepills.com, ki4u.com etc.
I ordered liquid Iodine and also got some Iodine pills just delivered in the mail today. I ordered a week ago right when this conflict broke out. I should have had some on hand earlier, but this finally prompted me to get some.
I live in an area where I wouldn’t be vaporized by direct hit, but would have to deal with radioactive fallout afterwards. I’m tired of living in interesting times.
Thanks!
Guess it’s a very hot commodity.
IOSAT is what you want.
Seems like you can get it at Walgreens/CVS.
Is that correct?
From the American Thyroid Association, anyone over 40 years old should think twice about taking potassium iodide over fear of how it affects the thyroid gland.
My usual source said it won’t be available until May 6!
If you’re familiar at all with how to cap it in capsules or create a liquid, this is more cost effective than a lot of the other solutions out there:

I wait until between crises, and snap them up for about $2-4 a bottle delivered.
I bought 10 packets of 14 pills a few years ago. Friends and relatives sure aren't going to.
I even bought a Geiger counter to see when we need to take them.
The iodine tablets only protect the Thyroid gland. No protection from the Alpha, Beta, and Gamma radiation on your body. Not very useful in a major fallout scenario. Maybe for children, Nagasaki and Hiroshima showed children with major thyroid illnesses later in life, not so much for adults.
Better to buy a Dosimeter to see what your total Rad intake is….200 rads you are walking dead, and don’t know it. Aeroflot commonly provides flt crews flying at altitude ( 32-40K ft) dosimeters to monitor their radiation intake at those altitudes.
