can't understand Norma

audio very compromised

not coming through much

seems ok here

Linda Lewison, try earbuds. Mine is OK.

If you are having difficulty hearing, turning off video can increase your available bandwidth

If you audio quality is poor, try stopping your video upload.

Audio is fine here.

yes

Typo in the slide. Name is Yoshizawa Masami.

Thank you for your correction Margherita

Please feel free to post questions if you have any!

How can Japan be so irresponsible to expose the world to these risks? Japan should’ve never been considered for the Olympics

is this a geiger counter?

yes

How much are people around these areas you are mentioning?

how do i get some volume I can see you and my pic is amidst all of yours

Move it with your mouse

click & move

move what?

You can select Active Speaker (only) video by placing your mouse by the videos.

To increase volume, you need to increase the volume on your device.

Becky posted call-in numbers, if you are in USA you can listen to the sound on your PHONE while you watch the slides on your computer. Scroll UP to find those numbers

Does anyone know what is the relation between the “counts per minute” on Dr. Kaltofen’s geiger counter and the “microsieverts per hour”?

missed 40 minutes

what is cps per kg what does that mean? please

We are also recording the presentation for later sharing.

it was counts per second - they different measures, CPS is about specific radioactivity, micro-sieverts is about the does to biological organisms

with this pandemic, how much are the nuclear power plants around the world at risk? If no workers overseeing then are operation being managed properly?

glad you are recording! for later listening!!

Nuclear sites are very vulnerable if significant part of workforce taken out especially when some of the people have highly specialised knowledge that takes years of them working there to acquire!

Patricia Reyes, that’s what’s covered on this week’s Nuclear Hotseat in interviews w/Paul Gunter of Beyond Nuclear, as well as info from the NRC conference call. NuclearHotseat.com, episode #457.

Unbelievable!

These poor people

nice one Libbe ;-)

Thank you for risking your own health to provide these important findings

Wow!

Why is this not in the news? Journalist should be reporting this on the news and making people aware.

How much exposure (duration) of this radioactive material is considered fatal for the average human? I’m just wondering how much caution should have been given to the athletes and audience members but it seems like the locals’ concerns were suppressed or was this is all downplayed for the Olympics? Sorry if this was answered earlier. Similar concerns as some people above ^^

Does anyone has any idea to stop dumping contaminated water into the ocean?

Thanks!!!

You and Arnie are heroes!!

Amazing work- thanks so much!

What’s the link to Marco’s article?

Powerful Individuals refuse to relinquish their positions of power

Amazing~~

Awwww

So cute!

Surprised it doesn’t have 5 legs’

JK

Here's Dr. Kaltofen's article: https://www.sciencedirect.com/…/artic…/pii/S0048969717317953

calculate by hazardous life for cesium of 300-600 years for cesium with half life of about 30 years how long the radioactivity theoretically should persist

Thank you!

Thanks, Eun Young Choi!

Bravo, great talks!!!

Thank you!!

Link doesn’t work :S

seeing those girls, I am moved to share the Gender and Radiation Impact Project website: https://www.genderandradiation.org/

THANK YOU MARCO and NORMA!

Yes, exactly MaryO. Thank you!

Thanks!

my computer crashed! :(

I am sorry Nikki! We are recording and will share later

Japanese people must defend their rights, there’s more of “the people” and can over-power the un-just people in power that put profits over people

thanks Becky! :)

From the simplyinfo.org Annual Report 2020 esp re thyroid cancer:

HealthThe Fukushima Health Survey continues. There are 236 pediatric thyroid cancers to date in children from Fukushima. 18 cases were added during the most recent reporting period. http://fukushimavoice-eng2.blogspot.com/Some independent non-profit groups have been providing thyroid screenings. These do not show up in the official health survey as they are for the benefit of the exposed children and their families. As this data isn’t published, it is unclear how many thyroid cancers are known but not officially counted. Iwaki Mother’s Lab is one such citizen group providing thyroid screening. https://tarachineiwaki.org/thyroidIndependent research of the health outcomes of those exposed is lacking. Government agencies have tied up most funding and research opportunities. The available studies are tied to the government health study causing a significant lack of transparency. One of the government tied academic studies was plagued with scientific misconduct and data manipulation. The data manipulation made

Norma, I feel you are not clear--you are repeating other people's suppression of information? I have a hard time "getting that..."

Sorry have to leave the webinar now for another meeting..this has been super interesting. So glad you made this available through Zoom! Learnt a lot

Thanks again!

Bye Maya!

Bye Maya

Thank you for joining us Maya!

Inspiring, bold & daring! A hero!

As in Holocaust Never Forget!

Are they still using the State Secrets Act to suppress dissent. Esp mentioning nuclear power and Fukushima in negative manner? has anyone been imprisoned?

OMG!

:(

I like these quotes. Esp Koide's

Nuclear power is one of the ultimate evils on this Earth, attracting money and power like a heinous giant magnet

Amen

how many nuclear reactors remain closed in Japan today? How many are open?

Beautiful, @Libbe Halevy

Incredibly moving

Thank you so much

Marco will we able to view what you presented recorded straight off your link?

:)

500 rems exposure considered fatal dose - you die in 2 weeks or so

doctors have reportedly been suppressed from making radiation related diagnoses like a rash seondary to radiation as one example

so that could suppress declaring causes of death from radiation

among the survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, girls / women got more cancer (total incidence) in every age-of-exposure cohort than did boys / men. BUT Boys and men got cancer!

I did not know until last summer that there is an island among Aleutian Archipelago, that was designated nuclear test site, where the US military conducted more than 200 nuclear weapon tests. when you think of the flow of ocean, the West Coast of the US has been long contaminated even before Fukushima accident. is there any data with this regard?

TY

Do any of the particpants have anything to say about why, despite dissent, the 2020 olympics taking place in Tokyo (or even Japan!)?

like what happened recently in Cartersville Ga USA where 8 people died in a nursing home in a few day period and no testing and no declaration as Corona Virus as cause of death. This happened within past two weeks. Same kind of story with radiation could occur.

Arnie & Maggie!! So good to see you. God bless you for all you do!! Heros x2!!

18 plants max open of the 54 reactors then

are taking place even! sorry about my typos!

how about solar and wind energy generation - how is that doing in Japan?

Appalling especially how much geothermal energy Japan could obtain!

The cleanest source of energy we have right now.

only clean up 10 meters into the woods

today, through my conversation with a friend in Fukushima who has visited Cuba. what she found was that Cuba had offered JAPAN to send many medical experts who experienced Chernobyl. The government of Japan refused their offer!

sorry bad grammar! hope you understood

bribery episode reported Feb 18 2018? or 2019? in Associated Press

Did the torch relay without torch or runners still start today?

Completely unsurprising, @Rachel Clark.

THE longest run

Thanks for that Norma!

It’s unjust the few in power acting unjustly get to decide the fate of the rest

softball players being very naive about playing in Fukushima

totally agree with you @Patricia

You guys my heroes!!!

How do these people sleep at night?

ditto!

academic compromise

I hope the link to the recording will be posted! I will share.

What has happened to all the kazillion bags of debris?

Something needs to be posted that goes viral

tsunami smell!

thanks Robin

TAHNK YOU FOR AFFIRMING LIFE!

thank you so much for organising this!

Thanks for a great symposium!

Enormously inspiring and eye-opening to me. Thank you, Norma and Marco!

Amazing work, everyone!!

Thank you so much!

You’re all beautiful people! God bless. Spreading the word to all those in our lives is where it starts and hopefully spreads

how do we get it?

Thank you so much!!

thanks!
