I wonder how many "Fukushima equivalents " are represented by a single New York hyperthyroid treatment?

> How scientifically credible is  CRIIRAD, alleged French research body on radioactivity. The alleged NGO advised pregnant women and infants against "risky behaviour," such as consuming fresh milk or vegetables with large leaves in April 2011.  Now the anti-nukes are trying to tie this alleged warning into the coverup of the effects of lead leached out of the pipes into the drinking water in Flint Michigan.

> I want to draw attention to a similar situation in the USA after the Fukushima nuclear disaster when high levels of Iodine 131 and other radionuclides were wafting their way to Europe. In Europe CRIIRAD had issued a warning on possible health effects in France and advised that children and Pregnant women should refrain from drinking milk and eating leafy vegetables. CRIIRAD also stated that the USA had ten times the level of radiation than France. The European Media did not run with the story nor did the US media, thus putting young children and Pregnant women at risk of increaing the amounts of iodine 131 they might have ingested or inhaled.
