You are missing the point. I know people who are wasting their money buying potassium iodide pills when they are 5000+ miles too far away to need them.
My friend in China sent me pics of store shelves there. All the soy sauce (high in salt) is sold out because that's what Chinese people will use to battle a radiation cloud.
That's pseudo science and is more dangerous than doing nothing.
