Yeah. It's these low probability events that scare people away from fission. Fossil fuel pollution kills millions of people per year. Like more than 5 million. How many has nuclear power killed in 60 years? Probably less than 100,000 as a conservative estimate. Events like Chernobyl and Fukushima are sensational and radiation is a sexy topic. People dieing of lung cancer from air carcinogens produced by coal burning is not.
