TEPCO lied about Fukushima radiation: it’s 18 times worse

Officer, I wasn’t speeding, I pegged my speedometer at 50,
nevermind all those people I ran over!
Like TEPCO using radiation detectors that maxed out much lower than
the actual levels.
Is this an industry we want building new nukes in Georgia?

TEPCO admits deliberately using radiation detectors that give deceptively low readings; radiation leaks far worse than reported
,



We also know from news reports in 2011 that TEPCO ran around the
Fukushima facility turning off the radiation detectors to prevent
alarms from going off. Radiation? What radiation?

And now we find out the company has been deliberately using
radiation detectors that max out at just 100 mSv.

That’s right, as
BBC reported 1 September 2013
,

The Tokyo Electric Power Company (Tepco) had originally said the
radiation emitted by the leaking water was around 100 millisieverts
an hour.

However, the company said the equipment used to make that recording
could only read measurements of up to 100 millisieverts.

The new recording, using a more sensitive device, showed a level of
1,800 millisieverts an hour.

What’s the difference between 100 mSv and the real readings of 1800 mSv?

Bloomberg Japan reported yesterday
,

Ito Tetsuo Professor of Kinki University (radiation biology) said,
regarding the level of hourly 1800 mSv, “There is only a thing
called death if you stay exposed to this for four hours. One hundred
percent of persons will die within 30 days.”

So when the BBC reported

The new reading will have direct implications for radiation doses
received by workers who spent several days trying to stop the leak
last week, the BBC’s Rupert Wingfield-Hayes reports from Tokyo.

The implications are they’re all going to die.

Is this an industry we can trust?
