[quote:Waterbug:MV8xNTM3MTQ2XzMyODgzNjU0X0E5RDY0M0M5] [quote:Anonymous Coward 11432405:MV8xNTM3MTQ2XzMyODgzMzE4X0MyQzcwODBE] [b]Study shows low levels of radioactivity in people living near Fukushima plant[/b] TOKYO — A study released this week found very low levels of radioactivity in people who were living near the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant when it suffered the meltdowns. The paper, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, measured cesium levels in 8,066 adults and 1,432 children and found average doses of less than 1 millisievert, which are [b]considered safe.[/b] It was the first such study measuring internal exposures to cesium in a large number of people from the disaster. [b]So far, the actual radiation doses inflicted just after the accident are not exactly known[/b], though exposure is thought to be very small, said David J Brenner, a radiation physicist at Columbia University, who was not part of the research. “We do need improved estimates of the radiation dose that people in and near Fukushima prefecture actually received,” he told the AP. [b]“Right now [b]our estimates are based on very, very rough calculations[/b].”[/b] http://www.japantoday.com/category/national/view/study-shows-low-levels-of-radioactivity-in-people-living-near-fukushima-plant .
