The majority of the fuel is still inside of the contaiment and not released to the Environment but there is a ongoing danger that all of this explode! I calculated that it is bad for the next 300- 500 Years after this Time the genetic pool will regenerate itself!

Prior to the Fukushima disaster, I always believed that a full scale meltdown of a nuclear reactor would result in immediate mass casualties in the thousands in the area surrounding the site with significant die off of hundreds of thousands more in the months following the event.
Fukushima involved multiple meltdowns and several hydrogen explosions. While I acknowledge that there may be an ongoing cover-up, it is clear that there was not a mass casualty event in the immediate aftermath. While many hundreds, if not thousands, have been sickened, I believe we would have gotten word if the hospitals had been swamped.
My question is, just how bad is Fukushima? Are we talking about mass casualties in the Northern hemisphere in the next year, or are we simply looking at a long term increase in cancer cases?
