I am speculating about genetic damage surviving the live/don't live level.
Nope... you're speculating about it surviving that level and then passing on the damge to the next generations (and so on). Remember... the control group that shows that Fukushima's children had "abnormalities" at a same/lower rate than other parts of Japan was measuring the grandchildren (or great grandchildren) of those who survived the bombings. (and somehow becoming a dominant trait in almost half of all Japanese kids?)
There's no evidence for this... nor even a rational theory. Radiation would have to damage millions of strands of DNA (in the same way)... and then those changes would have to persist from generation to generation. I'm only aware of one even claimed germline impact of a single generation (at Chernobyl), but the "scientists" didn't even try to rule out the far more plausible causes... and decades of research in Japan have never shown such an effect.
AND the total blackout of data from reliable investigations speaks for itself.
I'm aware of no such blackout. There have been scores of publised studies by reliable institutions... you just aren't happy with what they've said.
It has been running for years now. It is neither stopped, capped, nor ameliorated.
Thyroids are damaged by I131... which most certainly stopped three years ago.
