Peer Reviewed Study Shows 14,000 U.S. Deaths from Fukushima

Dr. Janette Sherman, M.D., Internist and Toxicologist. There's more trouble at Fukushima. Nuclear safety experts are accusing the Japanese government of lying after 230 tons of radioactive waste was found in a tunnel underneath the crippled nuclear plant - just a few days after Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihiko said the crisis is over. There's also news that Unit 4 at the plant is on the verge of collapsing - something that nuclear power expert Paul Gunter talked about on my radio show yesterday. This new information suggests that the Japanese government is still misleading the world on just how severe the Fukushima crisis still is. But even more troubling is the impact this nuclear crisis on the other side of the world has had right here in the United States. There's shocking new evidence out that the Fukushima disaster may have led to the deaths of as many as 14,000 people...in America! For more on this - I'm joined by Dr. Janette Sherman - Internist and Toxicologist - and co-author of a new report on the link between an increase in deaths here in America and the ongoing Fukushima nuclear crisis.

Why didn't you link the peer reviewed study? How many 'peers' reviewed it? And who were they?

Sorry, but correlation does not equal causation. You have not shown the cause of death in these kids and elderly to be radiation related, let alone radiation from fukushima.

[TheHealthPhysicist]

This is complete bunk. The longtime, anti-nuclear authors simply found areas with increased death rates after Fukushima and then blamed Fukushima. They then extrapolated to other areas where there was no increase in death rates to claim more deaths would follow. No attempt to correlate dose with deaths, no attempt to find other potential sources of deaths, no reason for picking 14 weeks versus any other time.

Of course the Japanese Government keeps lying. It is actually a CIA regime working for US and Israel. So covert but so simple.

[djsreview]

why is it people who find in favour against nuclear power get battered and scrutinised but nuclear people are not even though they lie and are only interested in $s

RT is the Fox News of Russia

How many 6.0+ earthquakes have they had in the fukushima area since March? At least five. Nothing is reported about them. Nothing. All lies. Murderous lies. There must be accountability lest we allow this tragic murder again and again and again. The murderers are in charge. 2012 will be the year this changes.

If only the world had seen what Nikola Tesla would like for us as humanity could have had. Look his work up, yes even here in Youtube you'll be able to find his great work,he was the Great pioneer for free energy, energy that is generated from our earths rotation. It was so free that JP Morgan who sponsored most of Tesla's work at that time deemed it UnProfitable to continue. People need to wake up there has since been many form of free energy being rediscovered but all were shut down.Look it up

@YouAreOneOfUs, indeed, no fallout is acceptable! But that does not mean Mangano & Sherman are correct. A few questions for you:

1) What's the average you cite that speaks for itself?

2) Do you understand that 'infant death' data are not 'infant mortality' data?

3) Given 2, do you understand that infant mortality cannot be inferred from infant deaths w/o live-birth data?

A quote from Mangano & Sherman (p. 51): "Only raw numbers of deaths, and not mortality rates, are given."

[YouAreOneOfUs]

As expected the Nuclear shills come out to dismiss this.

How off do you have to be , iCanHazInterwebz ,to say 14,000 deaths is just "up a little bit".

ANYTHING ,when it comes to kids is TOO MUCH.

iamgoddard said "they chose to small a range to compare". Go look at the numbers yourself , the average speaks for itself. They use dismissive words in a broad use to imply the study is wrong. This is professional propaganda at it's worst.

[rainkame2]

I have an impression that here in Japan news about the deaths of celebrities is far more frequent than previous years ( cancer lukemia, heartshock, etc.).The Japanese governmet will never intend to conduct epidiemologial research. So we remain far removed from what is going on in Japan. The surest thing, however, is that the results of radioactivity do not necessarily take a couple of years to turn up. They can be instantaneous, depending on the conditions of respective individuals.

[iCanHazInterwebz]

This is nothing more than sensationalized specious reasoning. So death rates go up a little bit, it happens, but to jump on Fukoshima is just irresponsible. Since the tsunami happened many world events have happened including Occupy Wall Street, the repeal of Don't Ask Don't Tell and I think a new season of Modern Family started too - perhaps we should blame it on all of those things too.

Anyone on this show has zero credibility.
