“The number of children and grandchildren with cancer in their bones, with leukemia in their blood, or with poison in their lungs might seem statistically small to some, in comparison with natural health hazards. But this is not a natural health hazard—and it is not a statistical issue. The loss of even one human life, or the malformation of even one baby—who may be born long after we are gone—should be of concern to us all. Our children and grandchildren are not merely statistics toward which we can be indifferent.”

John F. Kennedy, July 26th, 1963

New on the Voice of Russia: Research Findings Indicate a Higher Risk of Cancer Among Children Born After the 2011 Fukushima Nuclear Disaster

New on the Voice of Russia: Research Findings Indicate a Higher Risk of Cancer Among Children Born After the 2011 Fukushima Nuclear Disaster

Executive Director of the Radiation and Public Health Project Spoke with the Voice of Russia about the Startling Post-Fukushima Statistics


 — After the 2011 disaster at the Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan, little attention was paid to how the radiation leaks can affect the health of children living in the U.S. Joseph Mangano, epidemiologist and Executive Director of the Radiation and Public Health Project research group, spoke to the Voice of Russia about the study that showed that kids born after 2010 have some 26% percent higher risks of rare cancers and birth defects.
After the study by the Radiation and Public Health Project research was made public there was little response or reaction in the U.S. Although, Joseph Mangano expects to hear from people more as there are great concerns about the safety of food in water, even in the U.S., from Fukushima.
