On August 11 and 12, 2012, there was an international symposium at Fukushima Medical University called “Radiation Contamination and Mental Health.”

One of the speakers was Robert Yanagisawa, M.D., an endocrinologist and an Associate Professor in Medicine, Endocrinology, Diabetes and Bone Disease at Mount Sinai School of Medicine.  He spoke through the Internet on “Radiophobia and Reality of Thyroid Cancer.”

“..He established the Mt. Sinai-Tokyo Women’s Medical University (TWMU) exchange program, and has been appointed Visiting Professor by TWMU….”

“..Incidentally, Tokyo Women’s Medical University is one of the hospitals which have put up signs refusing to examine patients for radiation-related illnesses..”

Here is Dr Yanagsiawa giving the oncology philosophy

Radiation Fears and the Reality of Thyroid Cancers

“During the 25 years since the Chernobyl accident, some 4000 cases of thyroid carcinoma and 15 deaths due to thyroid cancer are known from patients aged <19 at exposure. For Fukushima, thyroid cancer risk is expected to be significantly less. First, the amount of RAI released is ~10% of the Chernobyl accident. Second, the typical Japanese diet contains high iodine from seafood. In Chernobyl, patients were iodine deficient and thus predisposed to higher RAI uptake during exposure; similar to patients on 2 weeks of low iodide diet prior to RAI therapy to maximize uptake. Over 35,000 patients followed for 30 years after RAI therapy has not shown any significant increase in thyroid cancer….”

[note he does not mention Hyperthyroidism]

“…These thyroid disorders lead to overstimulation of the thyroid gland and increased production of thyroid hormone. Increased production of thyroid hormone in these thyroid disorder results in a stimulation or quickening of the body’s metabolism and symptoms, such as nervousness, anxiety and hypertension…”

[Sounds like psychological symptoms?]

Shunichi Yamashita, M.D., a vice president of Fukushima Medical University and the Radiation Health Risk Management Adviser for Fukushima Prefecture, has maintained from the early days after the accident that Fukushima children had lower exposure to radioactive iodine than Chernobyl children.

Also, Fukushima Medical University appears to be trying very hard to keep their physicians from thinking and talking about radiation.

Exert from the Japan Thyroid Association website..

“..The JTA Council has made up its mind to promote further progress in our association this year. We are making many efforts to establish attractive programs in each meeting such as continuing medical education, supporting young investigators, and creating new clinical evidence on thyroid diseases in Japan.

Please come and join us at our Anneal Meeting: I am sure that you will not only enjoy our programs, but also broaden your knowledge through the Japan Thyroid Association.

With best wishes,

Shunichi Yamashita, M.D., PhD….”

Finally, this last thought. Just weeks after the worst nuclear disaster a meeting was convened and the main points on discussion were limited to not investigating but mitigating

There are no submissions to the peer review process this year from the Japanese Thyroid Association concerning the children or adults of Fukushima.. their mind was made up in the April 2011 Symposium.. using marketing strategies to deal with public perception.

they seem more interested in oncology and xrays at airports this year 2012?

heres a snippet from their website

google translated

“..”Creating a guidance of therapy for internal use of I-131..”

Treatment instead of evacuation is against the residents human rights

The Alternative WHO have quite alot to say about that…

Fukushima Medical Care Provider: Hospital president says people will be healthier after radiation exposure from triple meltdowns — “There is no argument allowed”

“..The president of the hospital where I am employed says people live longerwhen irradiated and Fukushima people now will be healthier because of radiation hormesis. There is no argument allowed. Since this statement comes from a physician, many people believe this in Fukushima…”

“..Currently there is “that” Yamashita stationed at Fukushima University Medical School. After being dismissed as the radiation advisor for Fukushima prefecture, he became a vice president for Fukushima University Medical School….”

“…The reason not a single Fukushima physician even mentions medical care for radiation exposure is because of the power of Fukushima University Medical School…”

Unbelievable Comment by Mr. Yamashita

“..He later corrected his word about “100 micro sievert per hour”. He told that he meant “10 micro sievert per hour”, however what he said after 100 micro sievert is ” It’s obvious that whether if you can stay outside or not under 5, 10 or 20 sievert per hour.” His correction does not make any sense at all.

Now, the children in Fukushima have a geiger counter whenever they go. City it self looks just like huge human experimentation facility.
