Allegations of pet deaths after radiation exposure are supported by top university’s re-analysis of Three Mile Island data

From ENENews:

Originally the nuclear industry and government reports in the United States concluded that the maximum gamma dose to a member of the general population there was about 1 mSv and that the Three Mile Island meltdown would not result in detectable health effects.

But Dr. Steve Wing and colleagues re-analyzed data from the TMI Public Health Fund. The result: “Increases in cancer incidence after the 1979 TMI incident were greater in areas estimated to have been more exposed to accident plumes. … These associations were stronger, in particular for all cancers and leukemia. …Findings support the allegation that people in the area who reported erythema (skin redness), hair loss, vomiting and pet deaths at the time of the 1979 Three Mile Island nuclear melt down were not suffering from emotional stress, but rather were exposed to high level radiation.”
