It's the worst nuclear accident since Chernobyl but they are not of the same magnitude in anyway whatsoever. I think Nyororin pointed out that if the scale was extended then Chernobyl would have been a 12. The event at Fukushima just barely scrapes in as a 7. Very serious but magnitudes apart from the event at Chernobyl....It's silly to keep trying to make them seem the same.
Still over a month on now from the accident and how many people have died from radiation? Not one. How many people hospitalised with acute radiation sickness? Not one.

I did not say "the very same situation"
And I read opinions of other members of forum. The current Fukushima-1 disaster is comparable to Chernobyl one, not "the same". And the amount of dead personnel at nuclear station isn't an ultimate criteria for increasing a level of danger.
