Edit: This is grossly exaggerated, something like a worst-case scenario.

would the radiation travel only in that specific direction? my sister is in korea, and she is pregnant

i missed the part where it says (to the US)

has this been confirmed? the way radiation behaves, i'm guessing even us in phil. are victims.

[carpediem]

This is not yet confirmed.

All we know is that there was an explosion. What I've heard is that, according to news, the level of radioactivity is around 1000 higher than normal near the plant in Fukushima.

On how radioactive particles travel, it depends on the wind.

They say the explosion was due to water vapor used for cooling. The thing blown apart was the wall that housed the reactor, not the reactor itself. The reactor is still protected by a metal casing, which serve as containment and a last line of defense.

They claim that the explosion actually helped because it released the pressure, which had fallen since the explosion. Radiation level was also falling.

They are currently filling up the reactor with seawater.
