I agree

I told my husband the highest death toll from the nuclear fallout will be those that panic and take unsafe amounts or preparations of iodine.

However, the remark about 190 people with radiation sickness did catch my attention. If this is true it is highly significant. I would love to find out if this is true or not

Even with a significant release, I would think your biggest problem in Alaska will be routine spring flooding from snowmelt due to the cyclical global warming called spring!

When Chernobyl did its thing we did get some very faint effects, but it was way up high in the jet stream.

We don’t have a whole lot of snow nor thick ice, and the spring time breakup is dragged out longer than it was 15 years ago. We used to go suddenly from minus zero temps one week to 50F days in a week and stay like that, instead its a longer slower and earlier trend, usually breakup has been after mid april, recently it has been earlier.

I heard the 190 people with radiation sickness as well. It is extremely hard to know what is trustworthy information at this point.

Already in the reporting you can see various agendas filtering through and coloring reporters thinking and presentation of information. What’s distorted, what’s outright lies and what’s a fact? No one knows right now.
