The Japanese police said they found the bodies of 10 victims of the tsunami around the troubled nuclear power plant in Fukushima, where workers were still pumping tons of contaminated water. Some 330 police officers, wearing protective uniforms and masks began a search in a radius of 10 km around the nuclear power plant for the first time since the magnitude nine earthquake and tsunami that struck the Tohoku coast in the Pacific Ocean.
Some of the bodies were inside the wave-drawn vehicles and others under the rubble, said a police spokesman. After the disaster at the nuclear plant, authorities evacuated the population living within a radius of 20 km around the site due to radioactive emissions. On April 3, police had conducted searches only in an area ranging from 10 to 20 km exclusion zone.
According to police figures, even temporary, 13 thousand 498 people were killed and 14 000 734 are missing due to earthquake and tsunami. Emperor Akihito and Empress made his first visit to the disaster area to meet with residents of the prefecture of Chiba, near Tokyo. The Prime Minister, Naoto Kan, wanted for his part that will rebuild the devastated regions in order to offer a quality of life issue.
According to the Kyodo news agency, the head of government envisions a new city in the interior where they reside between 50 thousand and 100 thousand people if their homes, located near the central hilly, were banned for years due to radioactive pollution. In the grounds of the plant, on 11 March submerged by a wave 14 feet high, which damaged the electrical system and cooling circuits, workers at Tokyo Electric Power (TEPCO) still pumping radioactive water infiltrated into the facilities and the subterranean.
"So far we have removed 700 tons of water from the reactor 2 gallery," said Takeo Iwamoto, a spokesman for TEPCO. The company plans to withdraw spent fuel rods from pools and jets off to use a small unmanned helicopter to check the status of these pools. Located on the Pacific Ocean, Fukushima is one of the oldest nuclear plants in Japan, since its first reactor in operation since the seventies.
Since 11 March, were recorded over 400 aftershocks of magnitude five or higher. Health authorities should store the blood cells of workers in the nuclear plant damaged by the tsunami in Japan for use in the event that these people needed treatment after an overdose of radiation, some experts suggested Japanese.
The nuclear plant workers are struggling to control a radiation leak in Fukushima complex severely damaged by the earthquake and subsequent tsunami. The radiation levels are dangerously high in parts of the plant, and labor experts note that there could take years, representing a risk of accidental exposure to radioactivity.
High doses of radiation can kill cells that produce blood in the bone marrow, a potentially fatal outcome that can be treated with blood stem cell transplants. These transplants are now standard therapy for blood diseases like leukemia. So, suggest that plant workers will lead to a blood bank their own blood stem cells.
This generally involves injections for several days in order to obtain stem cells from the bone for placement in the bloodstream. Experts, institutions including the Toranomon Hospital and the Japanese Foundation for Cancer Research in Tokyo, discussing the idea in a letter published yesterday in the newspaper's website Lancet.
