Radiation fears rise in LA over Japan-imported fish, ABC 7 Los Angeles, April 5, 2011:
[Emphasis Added]
… Torpedo-shaped tuna leave the waters off Japan every spring, swimming at speeds of 50 mph to the waters off Oregon and Washington, arriving late summer.
Before it gets there, it may well have spent time in some of the most radioactive water on earth.
Some in the fishing industry are now urging the government to test the fish when they arrive.
Scientists who’ve studied the effects of radiation on fish say cesium accumulates in muscle tissue, and migration patterns should be studied because different size fish are affected differently.
“There is a potential for genetic damage to these tunas for instance, as well as impacts on their reproductive abilities,” said Timothy Mousseau, a professor of biological sciences at the University of South Carolina. …

Right, and radiation is concentrated in milk and it has settled in all our lakes and rivers,and in our gardens in US/No. Hemisphere and will settle every day until they stop the emissions… some days worse than others. That spells cumulative dose. So our food, all of nature, our water is all toxic now and getting worse. There is no safe dose of radiation. Low level is meaningless for as soon as you ingest or inhale the exposure to your cells is high level. How can you prevent inhaling or ingesting when you cant see it?

Other report already state that the waters here have high contamination levels, doesn’t matter about fish coming from elsewhere !
