Is LA going to be affected by the Tragedy in Japan?

Question:


It is so sad to hear about all the things in Japan. I donated a little bit of money to red Cross.
Is LA going to be affected by Japan? How so? How to are they going to protect themselves?

Answer:


The radiation poses no threat to the US as winds will disperse it across the Pacific. The greatest threat area is within 100 km radius of the plant. Outside the area the radiation you will receive is the same as what you would get from a month's exposure to the radiation coming from rocks, the ground, etc. The US is safe.
