However, I have lived in ND which is like living in the world's third largest nuclear power next to the US and Russia.

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 42021286 United States08/10/2013 11:25 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | For the locations around the nuke plants it actually is. I have several family members that live out by Limerick and a few by Three Mile Island, and once a year, they distribute the packs of the potassium iodide. I grabbed a few extras from them when Fuku blew just to be safe, wound up NOT taking them, and now have hypothyroidism... Silly me. |

Potassium iodide, or KI, can help protect the thyroid gland against harmful radioactive iodine when taken as directed during radiological emergencies. Individuals should only take KI when told to do so by state health officials or the governor. Read more: [link to www.wgal.com] Don't ask questions, just take your government-issued pills! |
