ok, I did some research and I saw what you meant. BUT that's 600 000 liquidators from 1986 to 1992, I think the speaker in this video is referring only to the liquidators that showed up first and did the really dirty job during the first weeks or months of the accident! You can call them emergency crew. People that went later weren't exposed to that amount of radiaton, even though about a third of them ended up disabled or dead. I couldn't find anywhere what 3rd rank Chernobyl liquidator is.
The reason the Chernobyl accident is so popular is that it happened in a highly populated area and it was hard to contain the accident. Nowadays, most nuclear plants are not built next to big cities and are built under the ground so that when they explode the radiaton doesn't spread so far.
Chernobyl was only the first of many past and future nuclear accidents. Of some of them we will know, but for most them we will never hear, because the government will never tell us!
600 000 liquidators? lol, I think you have put too many zeros there, natio1871. I think she was refering to liquidators of Chernobyl only, not all liquidators in the world :)
this is heartbreaking! we in america have it so good and we complain so much! please, reach out and find it in your heart to help these children any way possible! God bless them all and God bless all of you.
