Re: USGS CONFESSES! : Fukushima Nuclear Fallout and It's Effect on America

This USGS article continues the downplaying of the truth.
I live in western WA state and some friends of mine who are in the 30's and 40's are finding unusual lumps on their necks. Radon in my downstairs now get's to .60+ mcSv/h THIS IS NOT NATURAL.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 8104492


I am one of those 30 somethings from WA. I am now dealing with hypothyroid issues that have appeared in the last 6 months out of the blue. I was practically laughed out of the doctors office when I asked about radiation and the time I spend outdoors. Would low dose radiation exposure cause a hypothyroid condition or hyperthyroid condition?


Do some research and have yourself checked out for exposure to this sort of thing. You are the customer, don't be scared off by their bullying ridicule.

At least if you have hard proof you can lobby for more awareness.

EVEN at .1 Rads per hour, it only takes 6-7 months to develop symptoms of radiation poisoning, AS .1 Rads TIMES 24 hours a day= .24 rads of GAMMA radiation absorbed and times 7 DAYS in a week = 1.68 rads per week, times FOUR weeks in a month = 6.72 per month. When you EXCEED 50 rads of CUMULATIVE radiation, by DEFINITION your subject to RADIATION POISONING !

During April and May of 2011, my survey meter read .2 and .3 Rads per hour.

CAN'T be argued away, or very easily gotten rid of, ESPECIALLY if you KEEP ON ABSORBING IT EVERY DAY from the FRESH SUPPLIES from Japan.

EVER consider THAT LAST statement ???

Didn't think so .

Don't worry. According to the Japanese government, there is no effect on health even in Japan. So it goes without saying that America is safe.

I know it's hard to believe but life is going on business as usual in Japan. There is no evidence of increased health problems even in Fukushima!

Bullshit.

They'd almost certainly would hide that info from the public. Elites would have access to it and would respond accordingly to the threat, but the public would be lied to, distracted, and pacified.

"Japan's unfortunate nuclear nightmare provides a rare opportunity for U.S. scientists to test an infrequently needed national capability for detecting and monitoring nuclear fallout over a wide network," explained USGS director Marcia McNutt. "Had this been a national incident, NADP would have revealed the spatial and temporal patterns of radioactive contamination in order to help protect people and the environment."

Hi weren't you one of the people posting some videos on Youtube showing high counts in the rainwater? Wasn't most of this radon and progeny. How much was long lived iso-topes? If you checked the Potrblog site most of his high readings of radiation from precipation died down after a while because his readings were gaseous radiation mixed in the the rain. Although a small percentage was long lived. Has anyone sorted this out yet?

The fact that the MSM doesn't at the very least give daily updates on the Fukushima crisis says it all in my opinion!

I mean honestly, is it just me or do you think they should be giving us some sort of update once a day? Hell forget about a "daily update", how about a weekly update at least!

My next question is... Why doesn't the MSM cover this? Are they just not interested or are they not allowed to do any real reporting on it?

I live in the Pacific Northwest and it would be really nice to know the freakin' truth! There are plenty of precautionary actions we could have taken to limit exposure etc... Let me guess, they are afraid we all would have panicked and it would be anarchy in the streets. It's either that or they are using this opportunity for a little population control.

Anyone else find it odd that the pharmaceutical companies stopped making some of the best cancer fighting drugs on the market during the time we are at heightened risk of developing cancer due to the Fukushima disaster?

In other words - its very important to know what the residual radiation readings are after the radon either evaporates, or its rather short half-life decays. The cesium and strontium would come from the gas zenon and krypton. But how much are we really getting at this point?

Also if we are breathing in even small amounts of plutonium into our lungs its hard to imagine that all bets wouldn't be off. Because the over-dose of plutonium is in the low microgram range. Which is not very much at all!
