Maybe you could pay for the evacuees and some children to get tests, too..



Fukushima municipalities forced to go it alone on radiation testing

[link to ajw.asahi.com]
[snip]

Radiation tests on Fukushima nuclear disaster evacuees and others are showing a significant reduction in exposure to radioactive cesium, but a shortage of machines to carry out the checks means that thousands of people are still waiting for reassurance.

Many evacuees were being left out. All 21,000 residents of Namie town were evacuated to other municipalities due to the nuclear accident, but only 3,574 people got a prefectural test. Many Namie residents continued to live in high-radiation areas for some time after the nuclear accident because of delays in their evacuation, and many have been waiting for months for checkups.

Although children, who are believed to be more vulnerable to radiation than adults, are being prioritized, the equipment is not designed for them.

Ryugo Hayano, professor of atomic physics at the University of Tokyo who took part in the meeting, said: “WBCs were originally developed for adults. So it is difficult to measure (radiation levels of) small children accurately. We are now studying better methods.”

The Free Clinics (Governmental) done this Checking
since the beginning of the Disaster and they needed
to make Priorities like Babies, Kids, Pregnant Women first.

This Article is from the May, 24 now we have 10/11
and i am sure that they worked nearly Non-Stop!

The Clinic above is a private one and every Person
can visit her, this Clinic is not only for Expats
and the Price is not that high for Japan.
Fukushima Residents pay only the half Price!

As written above too we can see than a CBC is working also
very well and People with abnormalities would get a Full Check Up sooner than the Waiting List suggested!

Prove it... speculation is not enough.
I would have hoped that everyone in Japan would have had access to testing.. free of charge.. sponsored by Tepco..

That did not happen.

Much of the testing was done too late to detect the short-lived isotopes. Many have not been tested at all.
