While the Japanese authorities made much of the contamination by radioactive iodine and cesium and while these radioisotopes are measured regularly in samples of soil, water and foodstuffs, the radioactive strontium contamination of humans and the environment is hushed up. Contamination maps do not exist ; at best, strontium measurements are carried out sporadically by individual research groups. Furthermore, strontium is not at all looked for in the foodstuffs-database, which is used to calculate the radiation exposure of the population through taking in contaminated food. But it is known that relevant amounts of radioactive strontium were found in the teeth and bones of livestock in Fukushima.>> read more ※Source: IPPNW Germany Website |
