=================== http://www.vpr.net/npr/134622500/ Iodized Salt Is No Antidote For Radiation
Thursday, 03/17/11 12:58pm Scott Hensley
The Salt Institute, trade group for all things salty, has a simple message for you:
Iodized table salt should not be used as protection against radioactive fallout.
As the nuclear situation in Japan deteriorates, some people on the West Coast are in a frenzy hunting for scarce potassium iodide tablets and liquid preparations of stuff, which can protect the vulnerable thyroid gland from radioactive iodine. The website for Anbex, a big supplier of the tablets, says it’s completely out of them and doesn’t expect any more for a month.
So with those pills and iodine liquid pretty much impossible to find, some folks, the Salt Institute says, have been wondering if table salt might fill in. No dice.
Even when advising the public to skip the stuff for protection against thyroid cancer, the institute can’t resist a health plug for iodized table salt, saying it “provides a myriad of critical health benefits for children and adults.” Small amounts of iodine — about 75 micrograms per gram of salt — are added to the iodized variety of salt in the U.S. to prevent thyroid trouble.
But you’d have to consume 3 1/2 pounds of iodized salt to obtain the 130 milligrams of iodine that’s contained in a single tablet of potassium iodide for use in a radiation emergency, according to the Salt Institute.
You don’t have to be a health expert to know that consuming that much salt in a sitting isn’t healthy. I’m not sure it’s even possible!
Now, the bigger question is why anyone in this country, even on the West Coast, would want to hoard iodine tablets anyway.
Earlier this week, Dr. Richard Zane, a disaster preparedness expert, told our friends at WBUR’s CommonHealth that the likelihood anyone in this country would need to take the pills because of what’s happening in Japan is “remarkably low.”
How low? Nuclear Regulatory Commission Chairman Greg Jazcko, who’s been pretty glum about the situation at the Fukushima Daiichi complex, said, “You just aren’t going to have any radiological material that, by the time it traveled those large distances, could present any risk to the American public.”
Still thinking about scoring iodine tablets? Don’t bother said Dr. Zane, sounding a little like Dr. Yogi Berra:
China tried to quell panic buying of iodized salt Thursday after grocery stores across the country were emptied of the seasoning by hordes of people hoping to ward off radiation poisoning from Japan.
The clamor for salt reportedly started after rumors spread, possibly by cellphone text-messaging, that China would be hit by a radioactive cloud from Japan’s Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, which had been badly damaged during last week’s earthquake and tsunami.
People were under the false impression that consuming enough iodized salt would protect against radiation and that China’s sea salt supplies would be contaminated as a result of the unfolding Japanese crisis.
That sparked long lines and mob scenes in some of China’s largest cities, such as Shanghai, Beijing and Hangzhou.
In a scene repeated across the country, online video from the eastern Chinese city of Wenzhou showed panicked shoppers filling their baskets with tubs of salt and street vendors complaining about being cleaned out of the seasoning. “I hear there was also a huge earthquake in Taiwan and it will hurt salt supply,” a woman is heard saying. There was no earthquake in Taiwan.
Chinese authorities have tried to quash the rumors, explaining that the country has massive reserves and that 80% of its salt sources were on land.
Thousands of television screens affixed on Beijing’s subway cars displayed a public service announcement Thursday that said: “The local salt bureau has stated that there’s enough supply of salt. Salt is a special product that is controlled by the government. Supply is greater than demand.”
Meanwhile, China’s National Development and Reform Commission told price-control authorities to crack down on hoarding.
The Chinese National Marine Environmental Forecasting Center also tried to allay fears that radioactive particles were heading for China, explaining that currents in the Pacific Ocean next to Fukushima were flowing east.
“It is impossible for radioactive substances to reach China’s sea areas via the ocean current,” the forecasting center said, according to the Xinhua news agency.
Salt producers benefited from the pandemonium. Shares of Yunnan Salt & Chemical Industry Co. rose by the daily limit of 10%.
In another sign panic over Japan’s nuclear crisis is spreading across borders, authorities in the Philippines had to hold a news conference Thursday to silence rumors spread on mobile phones that the country would be hit by radioactive fallout.

ဘယ်လိုကာကွယ်တာလဲတော့မသိဘူး
ဈေးထဲမှာလဲဝယ်လို ့မရတော့ဘူးအရင်က၁ထုပ်၂ယွမ်တန်ကအခု၁၅ယွမ်ဖြစ်သွားတယ်လေ
ညနေပိုင်းတော့ရဲကလိုက်ဖမ်းပြီးပုံမှန်ဈေးအတိုင်းပြန်ရောင်းခိုင်းတယ်တဲ့
မှတ်ပုံတင်ပြပြီးဝယ်ရင်တစ်ယောက်ကို၂ထုပ်ဝယ်လို ့ရတယ်လို ့ပြောသံကြားတယ်
ကြည့်ရတာပင်လယ်ထဲကိုအနုမြူဓါတ်ငွေ ့တွေရောသွားတော့ဆားထုတ်တဲ့အခါပါမှာစိုးလို ့နေမှာပေါ့
ကွမ်တုံဘက်တွေဆို၁ထုပ်ကို၄ဝယွမ်ထိတောင်ဖြစ်သွားတယ်
