60 Minutes Australia's in-depth look at the Fukushima aftermath

"It was a sort of dread, empty feeling in my gut that there was absolutely nothing anyone could do about this and it would go on forever. And as a physician and a pediatrician I was absolutely horrified," said Dr. Helen Caldicott in the 60 Minutes feature, talking about her first reaction when she heard about the then unfolding Fukushima nuclear disaster in March 2011. Why dread? "Because I knew what sorts of diseases it would produce."

In this feature from April 2018, but still very much relevant today, we see how local people's lives have dramatically changed, the endless vigilance and testing for radiological contamination, and the tragedy of permanent displacement. And it exposes the government message that "everying is fine" and the fallacy of decontamination. "How do you clean up the cleanup?" asks the presenter.
