A new look at prolonged radiation exposure
A new study from MIT scientists suggests that the guidelines governments use to determine when to evacuate people following a nuclear accident may be too conservative.

The study, led by Bevin Engelward and Jacquelyn Yanch and published in the journal Environmental Health Perspectives, found that when mice were exposed to radiation doses about 400 times greater than background levels for five weeks, no DNA damage could be detected.

Current U.S. regulations require that residents of any area that reaches radiation levels eight times higher than background should be evacuated. However, the financial and emotional cost of such relocation may not be worthwhile, the researchers say.

“There are no data that say that’s a dangerous level,” says Yanch, a senior lecturer in MIT’s Department of Nuclear Science and Engineering. “This paper shows that you could go 400 times higher than average background levels and you’re still not detecting genetic damage. It could potentially have a big impact on tens if not hundreds of thousands of people in the vicinity of a nuclear powerplant accident or a nuclear bomb detonation, if we figure out just when we should evacuate and when it’s OK to stay where we are.”

Until now, very few studies have measured the effects of low doses of radiation delivered over a long period of time. This study is the first to measure the genetic damage seen at a level as low as 400 times background (0.0002 centigray per minute, or 105 cGy in a year).

“Almost all radiation studies are done with one quick hit of radiation. That would cause a totally different biological outcome compared to long-term conditions,” says Engelward, an associate professor of biological engineering at MIT.

500 Times Background-Level for 5 Weeks and Nada!

MICE ARE NOT HUMANS, FUCKTARD.. NOR ARE THERE RADIATION TOLARANCES THE SAME AS HUMANS,,, JUST LIKE COCKROACHES OR ANTS WHICH CAN SURVIVE GREATER AMOUNTS. THIS HAS EVEN BEEN ADMITTED AND TESTED ON MAINSTREAM TV SHOW , MYTHBUSTERS.


ITS NO SUPRISE THAT THE JAPANESE GOVERNMENT AND PRO NUCLEAR EVIL SHILLS WANT TO RAISE THE LEVELS WE CAN RECIEVE. SIMPLY TO TAKE SOME PRESSURE AWAY FROM THEIR NUCLEAR WORK.

I suppose many will dislike what I'm going to say; but, I've been paying attention to this "event" since the beginning and have read almost every post from just about every one for over a year. I do not believe Atom Boy is a Shill - I think he is trying to make sense of this - like many of us and nothing more. tomato

Why dont you move up to Japan then?. I mean if its so safe as Atom Shill says.

Dont you like Urban industrialized areas? nice luxary nuclear power plants and modernized transport?

You did look/notice where I'm from right? Industrialized? Ha Ha Ha....
