JAPAN RADIATION DANGER IN TSUNAMI AFTERMATH WAS WAY-OVERPLAYED. 


A World Health Organization report, based on Japanese Government data, shows radiation exposure from Fukushima remained below danger levels even for the closest-in area residents. 


According to worst-case estimates, they received estimated doses of between 10 and 50 millisieverts, below the cancer-risk level of 100 millisieverts. A different report on total radiation released indicates that Fukushima was somewhere between 10 and 20 percent as dangerous as Chernobyl.
