A query to all re thyroid blocking in case of a nuclear incident:

What jurisdictions worldwide recommend potassium iodide or iodate
ingestion in case of a release of radioiodine from (eg) a nuclear power
plant incident?

Do any jurisdictions predistribute KI or KIO3 to schools, hospitals etc?

Do any jurisdictions predistribute KI or KIO3 to the general public?

Many thanks,
