TEPCO starts trying to remove radioactive cesium from Fukushima spent fuel pool$1:
In addition to radioactive materials, the fuel pool also contains a high concentration of salt, which was caused by the pouring in of seawater soon after the disaster began. It is thought that if left in the pool, the salt could corrode open a hole. According to TEPCO, however, the radioactive materials must be removed before an attempt to lower the salt concentration can begin.
That with the recent recriticality reported yesterday means this is far from over.
German radiation professor warns of possible nuclear explosion at FukushimaAnd then there is the TV reporter who ate radiated fruit in an attempt to sooth fear, he now has cancer:
The case of acute lymphocytic leukemia:$1:
No, not in a young child in a high radiation spot that is often talked about on Twitter. A 63-year-old TV newscaster has been diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukemia and is now hospitalized, getting ready for chemo. He felt a strange lump in his neck on October 28, he says. (Various news sources including: Zakzak 11/7/2011, Yomiuri Shinbun 11/6/2011)
In his morning program on Fuji TV he’s been promoting Fukushima produce by eating them in the show. He also happened to be in Fukushima in March 15. Just a coincidence. Never mind that ALL is predominant in small children, and an adult case is one in 100,000 annually in Japan.
