Those, who accomplished a work in reactor zone got huge dozes of radiation. The source of radiation in K-19 reactor was a radioactive water from a broken cooling system. The main source of radiation in Fukushima plant seem to be mostly a radioactive vapor.
They need to get enormous amount of bromic acid to stop and uncontrolled reaction inside and melting.
