Japan nuclear-watchdog issues disaster guidelines that do not make sense?
http://www.yomiuri.co.jp/dy/national/T121003003856.htm
The plans will be the basis for decisions on whether to allow the reactivation of reactors at nuclear power plants across the nation.
The Yomiuri Shimbun
(Oct. 4, 2012)
The Nuclear Regulation Authority released Wednesday a draft of guideline measures to cope with nuclear disasters….
[…]
The NRA will finalize the draft guideline by the end of this month.
[…]
Compiling the new guideline was one of the first tasks of the NRA, which was established in September.
[…]
As a result, the number of municipalities to be covered under the new guidelines will increase from the current 45 to 135.
[…]
The draft guideline also proposed stable iodine pills be directly distributed in advance to all households that may be affected to prevent radiation exposure to thyroid glands.
The previous guidelines stated that iodine pills should be stored near nuclear plants by local governments and only be distributed after an accident actually occurs.
[…]
At the time of the Fukushima nuclear accident, people in charge of prevention work gathered at an off-site center in Okuma, Fukushima Prefecture, which is about five kilometers from the nuclear plant. However, the center’s functions were paralyzedpartly because of rising radiation levels.
In addition, the evacuation of patients at Futaba Hospital in the town was delayed and many died as a result.
[…]
Feasible plans to evacuate hospital patients should be compiled.

note: Fukushima city is more than 60 Km from the troubled Diachi Nuclear Plant and here is a gieger reading (video) Duration 4.29 min

This video shows radiation levels on May 29th 2011, in Fukushima city (Japan) about 60-65 km from the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear reactors.
Measurements are made by a CRIIRAD scientist (Bruno. Chareyron, engineer in nuclear physics) during a meeting between CRIIRAD and Japanese citizens : M. Wataru Iwata (co-founder of Project 47 and CRMS) and persons in charge of the network “Fukushima Network for Saving Children from Radiation”, including M. Nagate (ex-representative), Mrs Marumori (now Executive Director of CRMS) and Mrs Sato. CRIIRAD is sharing its experience of independent radiation monitoring with the Fukushima citizens.
And here is the proof that the children of Fukushima were contaminated and their health is at risk. they would NOT get the pottasium iodide protection under the guidlines, nor would the 2 million adults (+17).
