My aunt was living in Reno, Nevada when the testing was being done. She said several times she and others would feel kind of sick for several days a few days after an explosion. I wonder if the population of Reno was ever sampled for radiation exposure?
They are still injecting water into three reactors that have holes in their RPV's. The ocean contamination is not being monitored at all. The water injection will continue for a few years. Three meltdowns. Physically impossible for it not to be far worse then Chernobyl already. Just do the math. Substitute steam and gases (Fukushima) for smoke and particulates (Chernobyl).
And the latest line is the Japanese government is considering making it illegal to report radiation levels.
