Fukushima wasn't mishandled quite so badly, didn't kill significant numbers of rescue workers, didn't require emergency containment, and didn't contaminate half of Western Europe (most of it ended up in the Pacific).
However it was still enough to make Germany shut down its working reactors.

- philipallstar 6mo agoSome people definitely died in the evacuation due to the tsunami. Were any additional evacuated due to the nuclear implication?
