Few radiation effects found among Hiroshima Nagasaki survivors
The ABCC and other scientists report after three years of study that radiation effects are rare among bomb survivors. Eye cataracts and leukemia are the main confirmed outcomes, with only about 29 leukemia cases among 195,000 bombed people versus 20 in 332,000 unbombed. Birth malformations show a very slight rise, with debates on social factors. ABCC continues large scale exams of 50,000 to 60,000 people and monitors 16,000 babies born yearly in Hiroshima and Nagasaki for hereditary and health trends.
