Here is the danger of the impact of a radioactive leak from
a nuclear reactor.
Disasters in Japan sparked fears of a nuclear reactor meltdowns as happened at Chernobyl in 1986. Impact of radiation vary, there can be felt immediately and there is emerging in the long run.
The worst nuclear reactor meltdowns in history occurred in Chernobyl, Ukraine in April 1986. Besides triggering the evacuation of thousands of residents around the scene, the health effects are still felt the victims until many years later as cancer, cardiovascular disorders and even death.
By nature, the human body has mechanisms to protect themselves from cell damage from radiation and other harmful chemicals pejanan. However, as quoted by FoxNews, Sunday (13 / March / 2011), the radiation at some level can not be tolerated by the body with such a mechanism.
FoxNews Health Health Editor, Dr. Manny Alvarez says there are three factors that influence the effects of nuclear radiation. All three include the total radiation dipejankan, how close to the radiation source and the last is how long the victim terpejan by radiation.
These three factors will determine what the impact will be felt by the victim. High radiation can directly trigger an immediate impact moment can be known, while radiation can trigger unconscious long-term effects are usually even more dangerous.
Momentary or short-term impacts due to high radiation around a nuclear reactor are as follows.
Nausea and vomiting
Diarrhea
Headache
Fever.
Meanwhile, the emerging impact of exposure to nuclear radiation for a few days of them are as follows.
Dizzy, dizzy eyes
Disorientation or confusion determine direction
Weak, tired and looked listless
Hair loss and baldness
Vomiting blood or dysentery
Low blood pressure
Hard to heal wounds.
The impact of long-term chronic alias of nuclear radiation generally precisely triggered by low levels of radiation that are not recognized and are not anticipated for years. Some of the lethal effects of exposure to nuclear radiation, the long-term are as follows.
Cancer
Premature aging
Nervous and reproductive system disorders
Genetic mutations.
