    Test for fetal genetic mutation.and generational testing…how concerned they are.
    And how is this to help the people that are being contaminated.
    Another..study?
    Then what?
    The people are to remain in place quietly and become human test cases?
    What is it they need to know..the people that have being continually exposed to radiation.. will die slow and painful deaths.
    They want to see the effects..they want to see the mutations..chart them ..mull over them.
    Whether the fetus lives or dies ..means nothing.
    Until..it's there daughters and granddaghters..are having children with deformities to horrific to describe.
    They want to study..the effects multi-generations.
    A fine study will now have been conducted ..paid for by the very lives of the people.

    All the while.. the people suffer.
    We want mercy for the people.

      Mengele-san is doing this to lower the number of sick people in the future.

      Geneticists known about cumulative effects of mutations from generation to generation since the 70's when the offspring of the earliest radiation victims (thanks, U.S.!) started having children of their own.

      It saves the state a fortune if pregnant women are warned of genetic damage to their fetus ahead of time. If there is no birth, then there is no deformity, no developmentally disabled, and no future cancer victim. If the child is born and survives, the state can warn them from an early age not to have any children of their own because even worse genetic damage is possible.

      Mengele-san also avoids liability for all those lawsuits if there are no future plaintiffs harmed by radiation ever born. Cancer in current victims is much cheaper lawsuit-wise, and if you hide radiation levels, they really don't have much proof.

      "…Exposure to radiation more often results in genetic and reproductive damage than cancer…"

      http://ratical.org/radiation/Chernobyl/Chernobyl@10p2.html

      The World Health Organization and the U.S. National Institute of Health rarely admit any clear cancer connection to radiation. They base this on either on intentionally flawed studies, or just outright ignore any contradictory studies (= censorship).

      Japans WWII vivisection experiments on living people is well documented. So what is different with this study..and I assume the fetus is aborted in order to obtain the samples? Or an amniocentisis -with the associated dangers and discomfort to the mothers? Thats a large needle stuck thru the stomach of the mother into the baby. A sample of the fetal tissue or fluid is used for study. Not nice for fetus or mother. Should NOT be done on normal fetus. I have personally experienced this test, its not something to do to test DNA. Wait until the baby is born…THEN test. Or is the plan to abort the babies first? Those poor women….

      And Downs Syndrome is now detected via a blood test, not an aminocentisis.

        jec: I got the impression of fetal blood cord sampling from Google's mangled translation of the minpo link. A seach shows NO english-language reports describing anything specific on methods or doing fetal testing. [Can someone who understands Japanese confirm that with a search on Japanese sites please?] Sorry for the confusion.

        A HKN report is pretty much like the others I saw – it only says initial samples will be collected from Fukushima children.

        I believe the Downs Syndrome test you're referring to is a blood test done on the mother, first. *If* they find the abnormal chromosome, then they will test the fetus to see if they *also* have that abnormal chromosome.

        Fetal chromosome can be obtained from amniotic fluid, placental tissue or cord blood that I know of (and they all involve a long needle). All of those methods are risky to the mother and fetus, so I was surprised they would do that for a genetic study.

        In any case, they *don't* abort a fetus in order to do genetic testing. I was suggesting that the motive of such risky testing was for the purpose of scaring the mother into an abortion *if* any abnormalities were detected.

        In retrospect, I don't think they are – it's probably just blood samples from children and adults. This is an odd study after ignoring basic internal radiation testing for so long. It will be useful for the people IF FMU actually gives them the detailed results. If not, then I'll revert back to my Mengele-san view.

    It's about time they began taking data. This should have been started 10 days after the explosions. The people of Fukushima prefecture are test subjects in the largest nuclear experiment ever conducted. Within the next year we will see cardiac problems and gamma ray cell destruction. This happens to all species living in a fallout zone. The time frame of contamination depends on the level of daily exposure. In this case we have Alpha particles in the mix so the kinda of contamination will be varied and the diseases that arise are going to be different in every human tested.

    Gattaca becomes reality as scientists start to screen, abort human babies based on 3,500 'genetic faults'

    The U.K.'s Telegraph reports that a team of researchers from the University of Washington (UW) in Seattle has contrived a method of examining the genetic code of unborn babies via blood samples taken from their mothers, and saliva samples taken from their fathers. The tiny amounts of free-floating DNA present in both samples allow researchers to essentially map the entire genetic code of unborn babies and determine which genetic traits they will have upon birth.

      That article may be a bit over the top, Jebus. What they would be able to do is predict which, if any, of the 3500 genetic DEFECTS could possibly result AT ALL from the combination of defects in parent's genes. And of those that are possible, the probability of passing them down.

      There's no way they can map out the exact DNA of the fetus using ONLY samples from the parents. Fetal DNA can be checked for specific, known genetic defects. Scientists still don't know what millions of DNA abnormalities actually mean, and they certainly can't interpret what combination of 'normal' sequences produce Gattica adults.

      There *were* more genetic defects as a result of Chernobyl, but there were way more developmental issues caused by fetal exposure to radiation. A genetically perfect fetus can have irreparable damage (chromosomal or otherwise) to certain, critical cells during development. Genetic testing will not tell you that – it will only show what the DNA looked like to begin with, not how any was damaged by radiation after it developed to specific tissues.

    Chernobyl, 10 Years After: Health Consequences

    Western Europe saw an increase in voluntary abortions.
    In Switzerland, in June 1986, there were 60
    percent more voluntary abortions than expected, based
    on the trend between 1984 and 1988 (137), and similar
    reports came from northern Italy (138) and Greece
    (139). This undue choice of voluntary abortions may
    be considered a consequence of the stress to women
    who were pregnant at the moment of the catastrophe.
    It also reflects the inadequacy of the medical profession's
    knowledge of the risks linked to ionizing radiation.
    Irgens et al. (47) did not observe such an increase
    in six counties in Norway where the declaration
    of elective abortion is a legal obligation. On the other
    hand, Burkart (136) indicates, without mentioning the source of the data, that Belarussian doctors were recommending
    abortions during 1987 and pointed out
    that this advice may have been justified to the extent
    that these doctors suspected, without being able to
    verify, that their patients had received high doses of
    radiation.

      Exactly Heart, This is Japan that dealt with two atomic bombs and must have reams of information available as well as Chernobyl and Fallujah. Without concern for the families and their future children, they will simply become lab rats to keep scientists at work and research to be paid by whom? The government has no funds and the Japanese economy will be non-supportive to even offer medical care for the people. Are we living in the other nations susceptible to be research lab rats? The meters in Ontario after the rain yesterday is dangerously showing high radiation. Why not study the residents to see how their futures change.

      I have often wondered at the personalities of some scientists. there were studies done on Black men during the 1950's to study the effects of syphilis, there was already enough information. Scientists were given permission to dig up the dead Inuits buried in the permafrost in Alaska and take samples of the Spanish flu that took so many lives in the early 1900's. Why? Lyme disease is reputed to have been the result of experimentation done on fleas that moved onto the mainland of the US from labs on Plum Island. In all of these cases and more the research to discover the effects on people has been the reason, not to offer comfort.

    I want to know if doctors in this one are planning amniocentesis for these genetic assays. Because that procedure results in miscarriage a certain amount of the time, and if there's real damage they could just come back with "we need another sample…" and stage an oops. Or 'counsel' the women to abort because the fetus is genetically damaged. At least China is up front on their forced abortion policies…

    Good grief! There are a whole lot of Japanese citizens who should be seeking expatriation to St. Elsewhere, and they should be getting help from every modern nation on this planet. Instead, they're just another captive population that nuke promoters can 'study' to ascertain the true dangers of radiation exposure, which they'll continue to lie about forever more.

What utter crap! There is no free market acting here!!!

    Nuclear Power is the illegitimate, bastard offspring of a political whorehouse called the United States Congress. There it is. Now try and get over that!!!!

    Loud shout out to all you suckers, from the United States of Cancer Empire!!!! Hitler is smiling down on our purple mountain majesty.

    We should have let King George hang Washington and Adams and been done with it!

    But no. England had its own bastards who knew that cost comparisons between nuclear and coal had been cooked, and they just couldn't get over the loss of this source of power!!! Just two pounds of uranium has the thermal equivalent of 2,600 tons of coal!!! Bastards! They should have left it in the ground.

    At least the guy who runs my skidder and has a bad prescription oxycontin habit is only killing himself (so far.)

    These nuclear bastards want us all dead, just to prove how glorious is the power of the atom unleashed.

    After proving such an unlikely hero at Hiroshima, the atom showed its real face, saying FUK-U…

    "FUK-U shima … sorry for the crass posting … I'm off my feed.

    Maybe I can find me some better medication. GE, oh GE! Still nothing to say in your defense?

    /rant off.

    peace, newsers, one and all. Try and keep it going … because if we don't, they win. They plan to just wait it out and lie it all away, like after Three Mile Island.

    The power of GE et al is immense, but the truth wants to come out (and make us all sick!!!)

    Good night all! Even to the evil, ugly pro-nuke shills, who bring such lovely, lovely things to life, like …….

    We all know they will devise tests they can doctor up the results of. They will invent great big words that you can't pronounce for test they can cook up results for. LOL. It's not funny. To see hot particles put mom in the CT scan.

  • Trying to prevent another Fukushima or worse at one more nuke park being set up at Kudankulam India, just before loading fuel: 20000 people mostly women and children in Satyagraha at Kudankulam nuke park on September 9 2012:

    Nuclear power programmes are the biggest scam in history. It will
    end in the night of Brahma. Stop the extinction now.
    Nuclear power programmes are the final word in destruction of modern civilization built on false foundations.

    Strange

    To examin foetuses – this is a way to take away genetically disturbed foetuses.
    This means the genetic impact from the fallout is so large that they will kill all unborn children, if they show disturbed genom.

    This is terrible – it gives the feeling back from the thirties when they (nazis and others) made genetically exclusions.

    It is also not any simple thing to punctuate a uterus and take a blood-sample. That test by itself causes 2 percent miscarriages.

    This is just one more really strong reason to have NO NUKES!

    @FRCSR Can you please reconsider your title on this? The only mention of FETAL testing I can find are a growing number of links to this ENENews link which points to a single article in Japanese. Neither version of a NHK story mentions fetal testing.

    http://www.fukushima311watchdogs.org/share.php?partager=2110

    According to this article on the newer maternal test just for the Down's Syndrome chromosome, the Japanese medical community *is* concerned with the ethical implications and the need for genetic counseling. Unfortunately, it also suggests Japan has a relatively small capability for genetic counseling now – that will be an issue for public health in Fukushima.

    "The average person in Tokyo is thought to have inhaled 10 “hot particles” per day throughout the month of April 2011."
    http://blog.imva.info/medicine/nuclear-doom

    Our magnificant human bodies might be able to fight off one hot particle lodged in our lungs, though some would develop lung cancer. What has happened in Tokyo is that people have been adding, perhaps, one new hot particle lodged in their lungs every day since 311. Such a load of, well, crap soon overwhelms the ability of the immune system to deal with these little nuke invaders. The cancer rate and the death rate in Tokyo may soon approach 100%.

    There will soon be no one there to test fetuses.
