July 30, 2012 tweet by Fukushima Daiichi worker @toudengeorge translated by Fukushima Diary:
The comment added to answer “Lunch box is too small” was made by Tepco employee, not sub-contract worker because they have to bring their own lunch box and they are even fired once they have heatstroke. I feel angry for the fabricated results of the questionnaire.
@gloomynews 「弁当のボリュームが少ない」という回答は東電社員の回答です。なぜなら下請け作業員は「熱中症で倒れたらクビ、弁当は自分持ち」だからです。下請け作業員にも弁当を支給しているかのようなウソを振りまく「アンケート調査結果」に怒りを覚えます。— 東電ジョージ (@toudengeorge) July 30, 2012

sending...
heatstroke is a bad thing from the managers perspective. 2-4 people need to carry you back, to an aid station, the time you are down on the ground radically increases your radiation exposure
and it looks bad to see people not moving.
so they fire them.
At some point they will have to fire everyone.

Fire them before they die. No insurance claims, no responsibility.

Dear Admin,
I would like to post with your permission:
Dear Folks,
My inconceivable meter needs recalibrating again. I suspected heat-related maladies already! I'm so sorry for the tremendous adverse working conditions these incredibly brave heros have/are enduring. These workers completely surpass any and all olympic competitors, yet where is their support crew? I've attended Ironman competitions where medical crews are standing by.
If this is true, all of us must now do our best to comprehend the magnitude of intentful deception, complete and utter disregard for humanity, and our wonderful planet.
This dispicable malevolence can only stir the deepest rancor in the hearts and minds of those who seek truth. I am agast and have no more words.
I continue to be sincerely thankful to ENENews and encourage all to read and post here.
For the Japanese workers, my sincsrest thanks for your bravery, courage and sharing your circumstance. Please know that you are the greatest heros of all time!
Don't stop posting and reading ENENews. We're trying to help you
Aloha.
親愛なる人々、私の考えられない計再試行もう必要があります。 私は暑さに関連する疾病は、既に疑いのある ! 私はこれらの非常に勇敢な英雄 / 耐えている途方もない有害な労働条件の M 申し訳ありません。 これらの労働者は、完全にすべてのオリンピック他社を凌駕する彼らのサポートは、まだ乗組員ですか ? 私は医療クルー通過立っている場所での大会に参加したした鉄人Babylon 9

The nuclear industry has created this situation, solely.

I think it is more like humankind's hubris and ego-centric/geo-centric refusal/inability to understand reverence for life and the mandates of evolution.
Just sayin' again and again and again..~~~

People in the Chernobyl area have sustained neuropsychological consequences, regardless of Whether they have been displaced or not.

"..On April 26, 1986, a nuclear disaster occurred at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, contaminating areas of what are now modern-day Ukraine, the Republic of Belarus, the Republic of Moldova, and Russia. Beyond radiation exposure and cancer risks, the disaster led to the imposition of various acute and chronic stressors on the people living around the site. Principal among these health effects are psychological consequences, including ongoing psychological stress, post-traumatic stress disorder, and diminished well-being. The Possibility of health effects other than cancer has not been Sufficiently addressed to this day.
Initiated and supported by Green Cross Switzerland, a study which conducted to assess the health effects of the Chernobyl disaster, Particularly with regards to quality of life, functioning, and neuropsychological status among the victims of the disaster…"

Dear Folks,
"Showing appreciation to the workers is an urgent need. It's totally lacking," Shigemura said, adding that he believes stigmatization is a key factor in influencing the workers' psychological distress.
Shigemura likens the workers' experience to that of U.S. Vietnam veterans returning home to hostility in the 1960s and early '70s.
"They both worked for (the good of) their countries, but they got a backlash," he said.

Dear Medical Professionals,
How can we help?
Here's the Am J Psychology article:
http://ajp.psychiatryonline.org/article.aspx?articleid=1268254
' As of now, however, the site is yet to find a full-time psychiatrist. The clean-up process is likely to take decades for completion, and further care is required for high-risk groups, including (but not limited to) those with the burden of grief, high radiation exposure, and life-threatening experiences. However, presently we are in urgent need of dedicated professionals, funding, and organizational systems to support these hard-working heroes.' -Jun Shigemura MD, PhD
