Guest guest Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 I haven't heard how much radiation California has received from the nuclear disasters in Japan? Arizona has just gotten a small amount of radiation--just detected yesterday or the day before. Poor Japan. I just saw this in the news:WASHINGTON - The Food and Drug Administration issues ALERT that will halt imports of produce and dairy products at entry to the U. S. from certain areas of Japan where a leaking radiation has comtaminated food and water.The Alert provides "Detention Without Physical Examination of Products from Japan Due to Radionuclide Contamination"The U. S. Customs and Border Patrol will also be involved in the effort. The FDA Alert product list includes:- Vegetable/Vegetable Products- Milk/Butter/Dried Milk Products- Filled Milk/Imitation Milk Products- Milk Base Formula Product (Similac, Enfamilm Etc.)(Baby) "FDA and the Japanese government will continue to collaborate to ensure products from the affected prefectures do not pose a health risk to U.S. consumers. FDA will continue monitoring the public health risks due to radionuclide contamination, and when appropriate will remove the Import Alert and resume routine coverage of entries.
