To be fair, estimations of future cancer deaths are near zero. Some estimations are literally zero, particularly from the WHO and Tokyo University. This is very fortunate of course. The truth is, the trauma from the evacuations is a much bigger concern, or at least it should be, in my opinion.

The evacuations were largely unnecessary in retrospect. That’s not to say they shouldn’t have happened though, given what we knew at the time. But there was almost certainly more evacuations than were strictly necessary.
