Japanese government underestimates internal exposure to the radiation:

Most of doctors
in Japan have been remaining silent about the danger of the internal exposure
to the radiation. They would just say to their patient who has heavy nose
bleeding, diarrhea, etc. [Nothing to do with the radiation. Worrying is
the most damaging thing in relation to the radiation.] Also there is no
warning from the Japanese government either. We often heard this phrase –
“There is no immediate effect on the body or the health”.
Doctor Junro
Fuse is an internist, a head of Kusugi medical clinic near Tokyo. Here is
the typescript of some of his talk. I added some of my own translation in
paces. The sound of the video is not clear sometimes, which often happens
in the video that has an important message to the public regarding to the
danger of the radiation.)
There are
restrictions being placed on the information about internal exposure to
radiation that hass lead to the general population losing their sense of crisis
about the danger.
Ever since the
Fukushima accident occurred the Japanese government has been insisting
consistently that things are safe. And there has not been any detail
information emerging from TV and the newspaper and etc..
Numbers that
have been released by the government related to the amount of contamination of
the land in Japan are very different from the numbers that have been published
by the third party, for example organizations outside of Japan, it’s hard to
interpreted in any other way, but to say that are under-reported and
underestimating the numbers.
Most doctors
in Japan are not concern about internal exposure to radiation and remain
silent. That is the exactly the case with the academic community of
doctors who specializes in thyroid. They aren’t trained about internal
exposure, they are going along with the message from the government and mass
media that says everything is safe.
Internal
exposure is the accumulation of what is absorbed through the mouth through food
and respiration. ECRR (European Community of Radiation Risk) has stated
that they believed the risk from internal exposure is between 200-600 times
greater than the risk from external exposure. The damage that can result
from internal exposure is not limited to cancers but also to break down the
immune system and blood circulatory system disorders and so force. But
the Japanese government has a little attention and a very low evaluation of the
risks and disease resulting from the internal exposure. There are hot spots
even within Tokyo metropolitan area that lead to these physiological disorders.
Some of the disorders have been observed and shown there are things like
diarrhea, headache, Nose bleeding, eczema and so force. We are
expected to see not only thyroid disorders and leukemia in children and caners
in adult but also circulatory disorders, diabetics, digestive disorders and
others disorders as well.
