    I think there was a lot of hard work that went into to prevention of anything worse happening at Fukushima. At least that is what I remember from reading the iaea report a couple of years ago. I remember it being a very good and interesting read: https://www-pub.iaea.org/MTCD/Publications/PDF/Pub1710-ReportByTheDG-Web.pdf https://www-pub.iaea.org/MTCD/Publications/PDF/Pub1710-Repor...

    I think 1 person from the cleanup crew eventually got a cancer linked to the accident, but maybe he survivied?
