The United Nations Scientific Committee, which analyzes the effects of radiation on the human body, compiled a report on the effects of the accident at TEPCO's Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station 10 years ago. Is unlikely to be seen in the future. "

On the 9th, UNSCEAR, the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Radiation, analyzed the exposure situation and effects of the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant and released a report.



According to the report, regarding the effects of radiation exposure on the health of residents, he points out that "it is unlikely that there will be any health effects such as carcinogenesis that are directly caused by radiation exposure in the future."



He pointed out that the cause of the increase in thyroid cancer among exposed children is the result of high-sensitivity screening tests, and that the increase in thyroid cancer caused by radiation exposure is the result of all age groups. I am analyzing that it is unlikely to be seen.



He also concludes that workers at Fukushima Daiichi are unlikely to have an increased incidence of leukemia and cancer.



The Scientific Committee compiled a report on the effects of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident in 2013 and concluded that "the increase in cancer due to radiation exposure is not expected", but this time, we have added data after that. As a result of the analysis, the conclusions of the 2013 report were generally confirmed.
