people affairs geiger counters and iodine tablets as thyroid aegis / fukushima incidents.
PLEASE READ THIS DESCRIPTION! buying geiger counters will likely be just a waste of money, especially for people in europe - but it could also give you a false sense of security with contaminated food (see video for details). however, i think a "people's radiation monitoring network" in at least the west-coast of the USA and other countries surrounding japan - and, of course, even more so in japan itself - is reasonable. if you can, do video reports of the radiation levels, or even live streams of the radiation in your area, so we can get REAL readings and dont have to rely on what the government tells us! however, i think it's rather useless for most europeans to buy geiger counters now... the amount of particles that will reach us from fukushima will likely be so small, you cannot detect it just in open air without doing means of concentrating stuff before hand (or having a more sensitive device - and not a normal geiger counter - to start with). also, IF people concentrate the particles in air (filtering etc.), i think a lot of people may be mistakenly measuring natural RADON DAUGHTERS if they actively collect particles in air, eventually causing a big scare for nothing. geiger counters CANNOT tell the difference between normal radiation that is all around us and synthetic and dangerous radioisotopes such as Iodine-131 and Caesium-137! but, on another subject and even more importantly, ingesting an overdose of iodine without advise of a doctor may cause severe side ...
