Fukushima Report Delayed as TEPCO Gets New Chance to Explain

[FBaggins]

89. I've posted many times about how deadly radiation is

The problem is... I only post what science actually says. Not "the science&quot tm) that you invent as you go along.

Some simply scientific facts that you're incapable of accepting:

1 - There is no such thing as "man made radiation" - so I can only talk about how deadly radiation in general is.
2 - There is no point in time where you are free from radiation. It's all around you and inside of you. You are yourself radioactive.
3 - There's a massive amount of data on the actual health impacts of radiation of all types (yes, including huge numbers of people exposed to radiation from "man made" sources. And a large number of experts with actual specializations in the field of health physics. Not one of those experts agrees with the nonsense that you peddle. Not a single one. They must all be nuclear power salesmen... oh... except that almost none of them have anything to do with the industry.
4 - Additional cancer risk tends to increase in a statistically significant fashion at doses above 100 msv. It is often presumed for safety planning reasons that lower doses still cause an increased cancer risk in proportion to the dose, but for very low doses (single digit msv and below), the bulk of the evidence does not appear to support it. There is no evidence that incredibly low doses (comparable to small fractions of background norms) have any negative impact at all. But there is evidence to show that changed behaviors caused by irrational fears of radiation can harm you. In fact, virtually every death associated with Fukushima have been from side effects of prolonged evacuation and substandard living conditions. None of the deaths have been associated with radiation.
