[ RadSafe ] The coming cancer cost from Fukushma ionising radiationaccording to Gundersen

There is no way that we could know that "there were zero cancers as a result 
of Three Mile Island". Has there been "no cancers" in that region of the 
world since it occured?

Gundersen really has a knack for outdoing Busby or maybe just channels
him - he certainly peddles hype and hysteria with considerable aplomb
- amazing since there were zero cancers as a result of Three Mile
Island - is that not correct?

The coming cancer cost from Fukushma ionising radiation

Nuclear Expert: 1,000,000 cancers from Fukushima in Japan over next 20
years  ENE News — First thyroid, then lung, organ, brain, leukemia

Description: Arnie Gundersen of Fairwinds Associates (a leading
nuclear expert) and Warren Pollock (http://www.wepollock.com )
redefine the Fukushima nuclear incidents (meltdowns and explosions) in
terms of human and total cost. [...]

I think the 20 year cost from Fukushima will be about one million cancers

Based on Three Mile Island studies
About a 20% increase in lung cancer 3-5 years after TMI
And that was small compared to Fukushima
And in a much lower population density
First thyroid cancer
Then lung cancer
Then organ cancer, leukemia, brain cancer, things like that
