“No account was taken of the potential contribution from intakes of shorter-lived isotopes…..as a result, the assessed doses from internal exposure could have been underestimated by about 20 per cent. …..because of the long delay before monitoring……internal doses estimated by TEPCO and its contractors are uncertain.”-UNSCEAR

The UN Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR) blasted Tokyo Electric Power Company for dumbing down radiation contamination for throwaway workers at the melting Fukushima Daiichi reactors!

The UNSCEAR report revealed that the Japanese government failed to record radiation levels: “….few direct measurements of internal exposures were available for members of the public. These were insufficient for the Committee to estimate doses for the areas in Japan most affected by the accident.”

Main stream news media failing to report that UNSCEAR now expects at least 1-thousand children to suffer thyroid cancer: “For 1-year-old infants, the effective dose was estimated to be about twice that for adults and the dose to the thyroid was estimated to be up to about 80 mGy [milliGray].……….Some infants may have received thyroid doses of 100 mGy or more.….

…….children are generally at more risk of tumour induction than are adults.”

In the U.S. state of New Mexico, the special investigation team was supposed to enter the abandoned U.S. Waste Isolation Pilot Plant site on 01 April, but couldn’t because required equipment never showed up!

Personal radiation detectors, that attach to the clothing of the inspectors, never showed up.  It’s not known when they will!
