Do you really think that no one has died from that? Just because it doesn’t happen at the snap of your fingers. Reactor meltdowns are far worse in terms of fallout than nuclear bombs however. Compare Chernobyl to Hiroshima. Obviously there is very little comparison since people are living in Hiroshima.
Okay
Pripyat, Ukraine may be a ghost town but for all intents and purposes is now a wild life sanctuary where apex predators roam free and live healthy lives right on the grounds of the Chernobyl power plant. Birds and bats nest inside the Chernobyl sarcophagus and appear to suffer no ill effects.
Hiroshima is a thriving city populated by people indiscernible from other people in Japan.
What this tells me is that relatively high levels of radioactive contamination and chronic radiation exposure can be tolerated with little or no ill effects.
“Reactor meltdowns are far worse in terms of fallout than nuclear bombs however.”
Um, no. They’re not.
