Guest guest Posted March 16, 2011 Report Share Posted March 16, 2011 The fine print (the body of the article) goes on to say the following: " The NRC downplayed the threat to Americans, however. Mr McIntyre told the AFP: 'We don't think that it would be particularly harmful... even in a worst case scenario.' 'We see a very low likelihood, a very low probability that there is any possibility of harmful radiation levels in the United States or in Hawaii or in any other U.S. territories,' added an NRC statement. And University of Washington Professor of Atmospheric Science Dan Jaffe told Q13 Fox earlier: 'Based on what we're seeing in terms of the radiation that's being released now, there is no risk at all. 'Even in the worst case scenario there is a low likelihood of much risk over the Pacific Northwest.' " > > Greetings iodophiles:looks like it's time to start your > iodide/Lugol's/Iodoral.
