According to NHK, to date only 40% of workers at the damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, have been given radiation check ups.
Tokyo Electric Power Company didn’t start testing until 11 days after the 11 March disasters.
Japanese standard safe limits for radiation exposure is 100 millisieverts. So far two workers have been exposed to more than 250 millisieverts. Another 30 have been exposed to more than 100 millisieverts.
TEPCo is trying to shift blame by saying workers are not taking their iodide pills properly. But even that is TEPCo’s fault; radiology experts are questioning whether the timing and level of iodide dosage was appropriate.
