子ども26人に良性のしこり 甲状腺「事故の影響なし」

東京電力福島第1原発事故を受け、18歳以下の子ども約36万人の甲状腺検査を進めている福島県は25日、専門家による検討委員会を開き、先行実施した避難区域の3765人のうち、26人に一定の大きさのしこりなどが見つかったが、全て良性だったとする結果をまとめた。検討委座長の山下俊一・福島県立医大副学長は「原発事故に伴う悪性の変化はみられない」としている。

結果がまとまったのは、原発事故で警戒区域や計画的避難区域に指定された浪江町、飯舘村、川俣町山木屋地区の子どもで、超音波による画像診断の結果、3739人には異常が見つからなかった。

About this site

This website updates the latest news about the Fukushima nuclear plant and also archives the past news from 2011. Because it's always updated and added live, articles, categories and the tags are not necessarily fitted in the latest format.
I am the writer of this website. About page remains in 2014. This is because my memory about 311 was clearer than now, 2023, and I think it can have a historical value. Now I'm living in Romania with 3 cats as an independent data scientist.
Actually, nothing has progressed in the plant since 2011. We still don't even know what is going on inside. They must keep cooling the crippled reactors by water, but additionally groundwater keeps flowing into the reactor buildings from the broken parts. This is why highly contaminated water is always produced more than it can circulate. Tepco is planning to officially discharge this water to the Pacific but Tritium is still remaining in it. They dilute this with seawater so that it is legally safe, but scientifically the same amount of radioactive tritium is contained. They say it is safe to discharge, but none of them have drunk it.
