[ RadSafe ] Japan death toll estimates

[Glenn R. Marshall]

People are still dying as a result of the tsunami--whether at the nuclear plant or refinery, or at the bottom of a pile of rubble, or from exposure and dehydration.

A major difference between the estimates is that death toll from the
earthquake and tsunami are very real, with names and in most cases
actual bodies, and the toll from the reactor accident may well be
hypothetical, at least in the general public.
