So ... they watched “The Day After” or “Jericho” to come to that conclusion? How much grant money got burned up in that quest for the bleedin’ obvious?

I also hear that the hospitals might be vaporized, incinerated, burnt, scorched, seared, leveled, blasted, blown to pieces, and poisoned by radiation by a nuclear bomb, but I’m going out on a limb on those and will have to await university study confirmation.

The headline was enough, so I didnt read it - reading it would be an admission that a nuclear attack would be worse than an asteroid blast. And I’m standing on my profound belief that an asteroid blast would be far worst.

Ya know? (lengthy pause for effect)
Maybe we should spend a Trillion Dollars of public funds so build enough hospitals so that we could handle the millions of injured people that might need medical care should some very unlikely disaster occur.
I mean you can never be TOO careful.
The fact that these hospitals would stand empty and unused should have no bearing on whether we build them.
And the fact that there would not be enough train medical staff to man these hospitals should also be of no consequence.
Also the fact that within 10 years the technology in these hospitals would be so out of date to the point of uselessness should not bother anybody.
We should start construction right away.
End Sarcastic Rant.

Actually, the problem wouldn’t be the nuke.
It would be the stampede of hypochondriacs who think the stress headache they have is a symptom of radiation poisoning.
As they flood the hospitals, the actual victims are going to be dying while the doctors and nurses try to triage the dead from the not quite dead yet.

Can I sign up to do some of these “studies”?
I wonder how much this one cost and how long it took to figure out the OBVIOUS?
