Title: German Report on thyroid-examinations in Fukushima Pref.

[Narrator:] We drive to Minamisoma at the edge of the prohibited zone. [...] We meet Mr. Yoshida. He – as most people here – has lost his faith that the government deals with the aftermath of the catastrophe in a reliable way. [...]
[Yoshida:] “The radiation that’s been measured by the official stations and the one we’re exposed to in reality, differ very much. At some places, the actual radiation is about 5 times higher. We have informed the government about this.”
[Narrator:] Only when the citizens of Minamisoma find it out by themselves, the government admits that their official measurements in fact nearly all are erroneous.
[Yoshida:] “We have asked the government why they would set up these useless monitoring stations, and all they answered was: ‘But it was you who wanted to have monitoring stations!’ I believe they want to downplay the consequences of the catastrophe.”

Re: "I believe they want to downplay the consequences of the catastrophe.”
Of course in tune with the ICRP 103(2007) instead of the truth. See how ECRR 2010 shows that the true risk is infinitely more than ICRP's Rrisk Recommendations regarding the health effects of internal radionuclide contamination. And in tune with the 1959 WHO IAEA agreeemnt to the Pool of International Satanic Information Suppression(PISIS).

It is not just the under counted radiation…
It is also the 'hot' particles that may not even show up on Geiger Counters…

"Official: But it was you who wanted them!" – Yes, but I think the expectation was that the monitors would be functioning properly. I guess someone forgot to tell the officials that.

Hi eatliesndie
I agree that when it comes to "Official Readings", people expect an accurate readings and all monitors to function properly.

Don't be too eager to cross the river, Johnny. Will you – and your wife, for that matter – really take comfort in being together for what amounts to an eye-blink of time sooner? What happens when you both have to watch an eternity of other couples going through the same thing in the future? Will you not regret giving up your last few years of opportunity to prevent even one of those from happening?

To Johnny Blade -
Your sentences long don't get it wrong, as from your Heart the truth shouts strong, like that big guy with hammer striking that gong – remember him, at the start of old movies? – anyway, your passages move me.
They're Celtic Harp with the lilt of Love and that alone your stength does prove but they are Trumpet too and clarion call as you care for one you benefit all.
Like a giant mounted on steed of fire, eternally powered, and tho you may tire in one moment of Time or another, from you and TO YOU flows Love's Power.
From more than your Enenews sisters and brothers, from every human who casts Spirit forth, that others know comfort, their health safe-guarded at every hearth from south to north, that no more be devoured by those in their crumbling Towers.
In this garden the weeds are outnumbered by flowers and the perfume fills the infinite vault that is the caring human heart, so never doubt you are doing your part. By the River of Life all humans have wept, and sooner or later we all must cross, but Love is Humanity's promise kept and that cannot be taken or from us swept and with it we can halt all Life being made dross.
Peace and healing to you and your wife and all who suffer.

@dosdos;you always seem to find the right thing to say concisely & in much shorter ways than my long-winded,heavy-handed(keyboard)versions. I don't want to be considered a home-grown terrorist or be considered an anarchist,but I'd like to know what THEY'D do if we acted like "they" do?!! All I'm saying is if my wife dies & it's proven to be from that crap~I won't have much to lose! and if our case is just a "hint" of what's gonna come "their" way when people start dropping like flies & the lies can't hide the truth or who is accountable anymore~the yeah,they should fear ALL OF US!!

Johnny Blade, I can hear the pain you must be feeling seeping and spilling thru your words. I'm very sorry for you and your wife and the hardships that you've had to endure and are still going thru… (I'll send out a prayer for you and her tonight – along with some positive-spirit-healing — but you are right. If we acted the way they do they would be terrified and would be so very fearful of mob rule, but this gets me thinking it out a little further. I don't think it's governments that have any power at all anymore when it comes right down to it. Someone on some you tube video – not sure who or when – made the point of saying that nuclear plants are in fact pre-deployed weapons already in place. So, is it GE and Hitachi and Areva — who are the Real Terrorists AGAINST the HUMAN RACE??? Seems like they and TEPCO, etc. are calling all the shots just like BP was – and maybe still is – in the Gulf.

Watching radiationnetwork.com since Apr-2011, levels up, but not to 100 warning levels. Anyone explain? Are these levels also being mis-reported. I understand the volunteers have various kinds of equipment and lots of variables. Have been watching the averages and not noticing much more than a doubling since started watching. In fact the single station in Japan is regularly measuring less than 20. Any ideas if the data is reliable or not?

Hi byron
I don't think they guarantee it's accurate. They probably would suggest not only watch the other area's, but also get a counter to check your area for yourself. Just guessing on this.

Buy your own Geiger counter is the correct answer.

Here is the email reply from the President of Mineral Lab (Radiation Network) to me.
email:
At 09:07 AM 11/5/2012,
Chas, while some of your points are valid, it's time to stop criticizing from the sidelines and get in the game. Acquire your own Geiger counter and join or don't join ours or other networks so that you are not dependent on me and others for _second_ hand information. To put it in the form of a rhyme, it's called created knowledge, versus related knowledge.
Tim, President

That's good advise.
However, here's what I think.
If you have created or related knowledge or an opinion, of ALERTS or TRENDS you should pass it on.
Anyone who is a member should pass on their observations.
Do the right thing. This is not a criticism, it's just an opinion.

Average background increases can mean you are cumulatively getting a far bigger radiation dose, than from a short term peak detection. We need monitoring stations that provide day, month and year, average background level information, as well as peak detections.
Here in Australia, at my location, average background levels are increasing
compared to the 4 year recorded average. As we come into summer, more Northern Hemisphere air, breaks through the equatorial barrier into the Southern air flows.
The background level increases are significant, and can be clearly seen from
analysis of the long term data. There are lots of coloured coded charts at this monitoring site that make it clear what is happening over time at our location.
You really need long term data recording and analysis, to clearly determine what is happening in any location. Monitoring station spot peak observations and alerts are helpful, but not good enough to fully understand what is happening.
