Ministry of Health: People cannot take iodine tablets on their own subject

Yesterday, the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention of the Ministry of Health issued the key points for the protection of nuclear and radiation accidents. The public should avoid panic and act in accordance with the instructions of the government and stay indoors in the presence of radioactive contamination.

Covertness is the main protective measure The China CDC stated that exposure to ionizing radiation may increase the risk of cancer.

How far a cloud can float after a nuclear accident is difficult to predict, depending on wind speed and other meteorological conditions. In the early and mid-term of emergencies, concealment is one of the main protective measures. Most buildings can reduce the inhalation dose of people in a building by about half, and the concealment time is generally believed not to exceed 2 days.

Protection of the individual's body surface can be performed in a variety of everyday clothes to decontaminate persons who have been or are suspected to be subject to radioactive contamination on the body surface. The method is simple, water can be used for showers, and contaminated clothing, shoes, caps, etc. can be taken off and stored. Until there is time for further testing or processing.

Should not take iodine tablets without authorization Citizens should avoid panic, listen to the radio or watch TV in time, and follow the government's instructions. In the presence of radioactive contamination, stay indoors. The administration of iodine tablets depends on the government’s instructions. Only after the government assesses the state of the accident can it decide whether or not to take iodine tablets. You can't just take it by yourself or by fear.

Relieve the psychological panic state. "After a nuclear accident, even if it is not exposed to radiation, it will feel scared. What is the reason?" The China Center for Disease Control and Prevention explained that regardless of whether it is actually irradiated, there will be mental anxiety. This situation is attributed to people’s self-perception of health risks, and it depends partly on whether people believe that competent authorities are competent and dependable, and whether rapid and effective actions have been taken to control radiation doses. Medical workers respond to people's necessary psychological counseling and relieve psychological panic.
