you're spreading obvious not truth.

"In 2005, radiation levels in the Red Forest were in some places as high as one roentgen per hour (~9 mSv/h), but levels of ten milliroentgens per hour were more common. "
And that even without disturbing the soil which has been bringing levels into the hundreds milliroentgens per hour. ARS appears when the dose reaches around 50 roentgens.
And that is without taking into consideration the huge damage, which at those amounts could on its own lead to prompt symptoms, from the ingested and inhaled alpha and beta emitters from the disturbed soil.
>“Reminder: Experts all agree there's no realistic way to get a high enough dose to cause Acute Radiation Syndrome in the #Chernobyl area, even in the Red Forest.” with link to expert opinion.
when it comes to Chernobyl there are tremendous number of such "experts", some politically motivated, some just plain morons bubbling and repeating incoherent stuff and obvious lies.

Don't blame the experts, not even the self-proclaimed ones, blame the people who mangled and misquoted and ended up with "experts all agree there's no realistic way to get a high enough dose". As if digging ditches were an unrealistic activity for soldiers.
