There was much concern about the Fukishima Daiichi nuclear plant in Japan after the tsunami of 2011 there was radioactive fallout coming ashore on the western coast of the USA. Potassium Iodide flew off the shelves as we waited for the levels of radiation coming a shore could be measured. To determine if the radiation levels were high enough to warrant the dosage of potassium iodide which can cause more health issues if too much is taken or if a dose has been taken when not needed.

So how should you react if there is a nuclear fallout situation that should be causing you radiation concerns?  Next time radiation comes ashore or if the accidental release of nuclear radiation should be in your local area or if you should be in the path of the wind  or ocean currents. What should you do before, during and after an nuclear emergency?  Most households now along the west coast do have a dosage of potassium iodide on hand for each member of the family. But for further information on when you should do, have on hand and react see the featured link below
