This looks like another piece of cherry-picked information (or total
misinformation!).
Have a look at the WHO website and search on Ionizing Radiation. Plenty of
information there that is fairly balanced (although ignoring any hormesis
effect of low doses).
Nothing about a statement by Margaret Chan.......

Could be the statement was made in a speech, but taken totally out of
context, or altered to fit these peoples agenda.....

And the fact that it is only "reported" in a letter to the WHO from a strong
"anti"group, without attribution whatsoever for the statement and wheeling
out Bertell as their guiding light, should be enough to allow us to assess
its credibility.

As for the people who normally subscribe to their website: you won't change
their minds!

Doug

If no level of radiation is safe, how come the human race have survived this
many millenniums??  Does she have an answer and what proof does she have? 
Who is she trying to scare and what does she suppose we should do about it!

Courage of Margaret Chan WHO Director General, on ionising radiation

by Christina MacPherson

HISTORY WAS MADE. Marion Odell, 29 Sept 2012 On May 12, 2011 history was
quietly made when courageous WHO Director-General Margaret Chan said "There
is no safe low level of radiation."

Until May 12, 2011, the World Health Organization (WHO) always followed the
lead of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) on nuclear health
effects issues as there is a 1959 agreement that WHO would accept the
findings of that organization. This agreement is still in effect and
hopefully will be rescinded soon.

However this most likely will need some considerable political pressure from
the public. It is imperative that we support this tremendously important
pronouncement and spread the message far and wide. This is a breakthrough
that will impress the public because of the prestige of the World Health
Organization and the integrity of the Director-General Dr. Margaret Chan.

The letter to Director-General Dr. Margaret Chan from the International
Institute of Concern for Public appears below. It can also be seen at
iicph.org/330.
