[ RadSafe ] Leukemias and Chernobyl + European Journal...

[Busby Chris]

The other countries were excluded because they would not release the data.
I received a study from Bulgaria to review which showed the effect but it never was published even though I said it should be.
The IARC agreed to investigate and do a study but they never did or if they did, it wasnt published.
Sincerely
Chris

I had the same question - why were all these other countries excluded? In addition - Jan-March + June 1986 could have been included in the data - it would have been easy to include these months so why was that not done?
 
The paper is free to download from the Internet. An interesting feature seems to be that you have to pay (quite much) to get your paper published.
 
While we look at this leukemia and Chernobyl paper CB could perhaps explain the status of "European Journal of Biology and Bioelectromagnetics".
 
My personal initiative only,

BTW, where are all the stats for the other EU countries??? BeNeLux, England, France, Ireland, Italy...
