Japan Nuclear Radiation 4 Times Chernobyl Levels OUTSIDE Evacuation Zone

Japan Nuclear Radiation 4 Times Chernobyl Levels OUTSIDE Evacuation Zone: "Independent scientists find radiation levels beyond Japan evacuation zone are 4 times higher than Chernobyl levels beyond the 30km evacuation zone and higher than official government reported numbers.

The Japanese New Service Asashi reports that radiation levels measured by a collaboration of independent scientists from Kyoto University and Hiroshima university refute the official radiation levels released by the Government of Japan.

Radiation levels 400 times normal are expected to remain in communities beyond the 30km evacuation zone.

The scientists pointed out the official Government radiation levels included only two types of radioactive isotopes. Scientists from the university say they have detected 6 radioactive isotopes and have provided new estimates with showing higher levels of radiation being released based on the inclusion of the additional isotopes detected.

In response, the Japan government agreed to consider the new numbers noting they would consider the new numbers based on a 1 year exposure where current evacuation standards are based on 3 months of exposure."
