Its boring reading, no explosions and moving animations, just text and tables; but it tells the story best. Basically she is overestimating the adverse effects by a large margin.

@bongeye420

Its not about nuclear physics; its about the way she claims amount of radioactive particles is released is exagerated by a factor of about a 1000x. The problem is, she claims the WHO and the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) have doctored their research and overview of the effects of Chernobyl. In fact, unless you eat mushrooms in or from the northern ukraine or Byelorussia, you will not be affected by radionuclides from Chernobyl in Europe today(in any meaningful sense).

@52111centrumcz do you have a link to the claims you believe are erroneous? i have little knowlege of the finer points of nuclear physics, so it is in my interest to determine if she has an agenda not

@bongeye420

mostly about her nonsensical statements about the effects of Chernobyl; I studied nuclear science and medical engineering as a degree, and we had the chief radiologist of the ministry of health from where I am from as a tutor; he was asked by the USSR as an expert to help treat people in 1986 +1987 after the accident; most of the dead are from the first rapid reaction force and consript soldiers, and the radiocontamination of the European continent is nowhere near what she claims.

anybody know the title of the small black book Helen refers to around 6.20?

@52111centrumcz what is your statement reguarding her integrity based upon? if you have reason to beleive she is indeed a shill then please do share these reasons with me......

@Fixhist

Depleted Uranium? Used without a doubt (armor penetrator warhead). Nuclear weapons? Are you friggin nuts? If you think nukes were used go to any seismographic station and ask them to find a blip somewhere from afghanistan; they will find none. Same goes for Iraq.

@Schlagsibonn

geniuses are of a different caliber. She is a shill activist; I wouldn't be surprised if she would be payed (wittingly or not) to appear by insiders from the coal and oil lobby; because nuclear is so far the only real threat to the domination of these industries in the human demand for electric power.

Dr. Helen Caldicott, M.D. "tells it all" except for the useage of energy frequency healing. This out of the box healing that is not promoted or accepted by the mainstream can do wonders when it comes to healing radiation in all living things. It can serve to heal the aftermath of a nuclear disaster. Yes, the gloom, doom and disaster do exist, but there is HOPE !

@tuttt99 2 years later what are your thoughts on Fukushima? Totally safe, let's go swimming shall we? You first.
