400 mSv per hour is an extremely serious situation. That’s exactly why they evacuated the area around the power plant.

The higher the level of radioactivity, the shorter the half-life, at least. Let’s hope the prevailing winds continue to blow the plume out over the ocean.

Of course, if they're confusing milliseiverts (mSv) with microsieverts (μSv), who knows what the hell's going on there.
