I'm sure that they know a lot about a lot of things, but that doesn't mean that every report they produce is accurate.
- mpweiher 10y agoThe WHO did not speak of "minimal" human health impacts. In fact, the health impacts were significant. It's just that those impacts are not primarily due to direct effects radiation. The biggest impact appears to have been over-reaction to the fear of the effects of radiation. Again, those effects due to the overreaction were very real and very significant.
