Fukushima Update 6/21

Fukushima Commentary
 
Japan’s Red Cross violates their moral imperative with too-low exposure limit 
The Japanese Red Cross Society (JCRS) has set a maximum radiation exposure limit of one millisievert per year for emergency response workers. The primary mission of emergency rescue workers is saving the lives of survivable victims. To the contrary, it seems the JCRS is more concerned about avoidance of negligible radiation exposures than with saving people’s lives.
 
A new Fukushima radiation scare about Strontium-90
This past Wednesday, Tokyo Electric Company said Strontium-90 was found in a groundwater sampling “well” at Fukushima Daiichi. The announcement has set off a tsunami of alarming Press articles based on questionable evidence. Japan's Press seems dedicated to keeping their readers in a state of fear.
