[ RadSafe ] Nuclear Power Plant Effluents

[Stabin, Michael]

>A rare occurrence, yes, but death by nuclear power is much rarer in the
U.S.  Much, much rarer.

Unless we go back to the SL-1 incident in 1961, or we are including
one-the-job industrial related fatalities, what deaths are you referring
to? There were a couple of fatalities at TMI, in traffic accidents as
people tried to leave the area, these would be death by "media panic",
not "nuclear power".
