Interesting study--contradicts the reassurances of those who claim that the radioiodine threat vanishes quickly after nuke accidents.

Who said the risk vanishes? The population, specially kids, absorb Iodine-131 during the first weeks and the results (increased thyroid cancer et al) become evident during the following years and decades.

You even have a chart on the wikipedia article about Chernobyl:

Numerous shills, not on this forum, who tried to debunk the Chernobyl book by Yablokov. We have more of them in Europe than you have in the US but they are extremely active in those countries that have announced new nuke build.
