Following up this article..2,000 Fukushima workers had thyroid exposure over 100 mSv / Tepco reported WHO only “178 workers” [URL]

 

Former Fukushima worker Happy11311 commented on Twitter that a lot of Fukushima workers didn’t take Iodine tablets in 311. They were warned about the side effect.

Just after 311, Iodine tables were given to the workers who wanted it, but they warned about the side effect. They said “It has the individual variation, but Iodine tables may cause diarrhea.”.

We couldn’t go to the toilet even if we had stomachache. A lot of the workers couldn’t take the tablets even though they were under 40 years old.

L’ancien travailleur de Fukushima : “Beaucoup de travailleurs n’ont pas avalé les tablettes d’iode à cause des effets de bord qu’on leur avait dit”

 

Article lié : 2 000 travailleurs de Fukushima ont été exposés au-dessus de 100 mSv à la thyroïde / à l’OMS Tepco n’ en a déclaré que 178

Happy11311, l’ancien travailleur de Fukushima, a déclaré sur Twitter que beaucoup de travailleurs de Fukushima n’ont pas pris leurs tablettes d’iode pendant le 11-3. Ils avaient été avertis contre les effets de bord.

<Traduction>
Juste après le 11-3, des tablettes d’iode avaient été remises aux travailleurs qui en voulaient et en avertissant des effets de bord. Ils disaient “Ça dépend des individus mais les tablettes d’iode peuvent provoquer la diarrhée.”.
On ne pouvait pas aller aux toilettes même quand on avait mal au ventre. Beaucoup de  travailleurs ne pouvaient pas avaler les tablettes même s’ils avaient moins de 40 ans.

1F事故当初、ヨウ素剤は希望する作業員に対し配布してたんだけど副作用として「個人差はあるが下痢の症状が出る可能性がある」って言われて40才以下の人でも服用してない人が、かなりいたんだ。当時、現場で作業中にお腹痛くなっても直ぐに行けるトイレなんて無かったから飲めなかったんだよね。

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.
