Are you aware of the fact that the problem isn't "solved" yet and they are still frantically building storage tanks to store the thousands of liters per day of contaminated water that gets pumped out of the reactor that is cooled by sea water preventing a boil down? [1] Just a few days it was discussed dumping some of the contaminated water into the sea [2]. While this is underway an army of people is trying to shovel contaminated earth of the whole prefecture into plastic bags and store them in huge piles.
I wouldn't call this "few ill effects".
