Here is an interesting trivia question that shocks a lot of people.

Question: How many people in the US have ever been injured or killed by a nuclear power plant accident in the US?

Answer: Zero

"It never has occurred, therefore it never will."

*clap, clap*

And worldwide: We're not really sure. Not even the Russians know the true toll from Chernobyl

Actually studies tend to show the numbers quoted for chernobyl are overestimated...

I mean... look at the total death tolls caused my the nuclear bomb attacks on Japan. You'd be surprised.

Outside of the people killed there is like... virtually no genetic mutation on offspring.

 

 

You forgot about the vastly elevated cancer rates at Chernobyl, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki.

And as far as the people directly killed at the site: I'm not sure I trust the Soviet numbers. For obvious reasons.
