``Your Days of Eating Pacific Ocean Fish Are Over at the Very Least,'' reads the headline of a post accompanied by photos of people suffering from radiation poisoning, as well as a deformed infant"
Brilliant campaign for the anti-whaling /anti-fishing crowd actually. The truth doesn't matter, as long as people believe it.
"And the plant operators and government seem to be blundering from one miscalculation to the next. If the scale of the leak increases, or large quantities of more persistent radioactive elements such as strontium-90 get into the food chain, there might be cause for greater concern. So far, that doesn't seem to have happened."
The governments also lie ("downplay") http://www.theguardian.com/environment/interactive/2011/jun/30/email-nuclear-uk-government-fukushima http://www.theguardian.com/environment/interactive/2011/jun/... for one reason or another (commerce, not cause panic etc) so their numbers would mean little to me. Better safe than sorry, it's not like I can't do without Japanese fish for xxx days.
