Main Overview

The tragic events at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant following the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami have the world on edge, fearing unavoidable catastrophic nuclear radiation. Sadly, once radiation is released into the environment, it can contaminate vast areas and is nearly impossible to contain. Contamination levels are non-linear, and individuals far from the radiation site can be affected just as significantly as those within the containment zone. This still-unfolding disaster has come closer than any crisis in modern history to making the fears of toxic nuclear exposure a terrible reality.

Signs & Symptoms of Radiation Exposure

The level of radiation sickness depends on how much radiation has been absorbed by the body. The quantity absorbed depends on the strength of the radiation and the proximity between the individual and the source of radiation. Signs and symptoms of acute radiation exposure include (but are not limited to):

• nausea
• vomiting
• diarrhea
• weakness
• red itchy skin
• sore mouth and throat
• anemia
• hair loss
• bleeding
• recurrent infections
• cancer
• death
