"Since bears kill less people than smoking and alcohol I'll just poke this one until it wakes up oops I lost an arm how unfortunate."
-Yanagisawa, before being mauled to death.
Nice try to avoid my question, but you failed.

First of all, it's not even possible to quantify exactly the effects of Chernobyl. Cancers, such as thyroid, have indeed increased since the incident, and there has been a very profound effect on human health and beyond.
Do you know how to decrease cancer rate BTW? It is an easy task.

I'm not avoiding any question, there's just no relation whatsoever between smoking, alcohol and nuclear power so you using three very different things to prove a point just makes you look dumb, and I'm therefore making fun of you. Quite shamelessly.
You were obviously too busy inhaling the deliciously polluted Chinese air to keep up with the news of the Fukushima disaster but you have an example right there.
Nuclear waste poisons anything it touches.

The graph above is modified by the author who belongs to Greenpeace. And even with this modified one, this guy has to admit The wind power fatalities per unit of energy was reported to be twice as that of nuclear in Germany in 2000 (IEA 2002).
The below is the original one:

Your environmental exposure to radioactive caesium and iodine and the like does not care whether or not you visit the doctor often or not. What makes you think that would have anything to do with it?
And again, the table is misleading. Fatalities with nuclear aren't calculated with cancers to come in mind.

Reason: Orphaned - Response to an edited post
So you are inferior to those mammals, birds and fish. They enjoy their lives there.
Our DNA is equally fragile to disturbances. The only reason why a cockroach would last longer on a radioactive environment than you is due to a cockroach's cells dividing more slowly. (So I guess that by your own logic, you're inferior to a cockroach.)
But here's the thing: Radiation doesn't kill you immediatly unless you're exposed to really high levels of it.
You will not know if those mammals, birds and fish "Enjoying their lives there" have latent cancer due to exposure until they start dying out. Same reason why you can't really know for sure how many deaths happened due to the Chernobyl accident.
If an accident happens on a nuclear power plant and nuclear waste touches and pollutes water, you can bathe in it. Just know that radioactivity is messing with your DNA.

We were talking about cancer rate, right?
If you died in traffic collision when you are young, you would have little chance to get cancer.

Many people are afraid of ghost/zombie etc because you can't really know for sure how many deaths happened due to them
Yanagisawa, I just heard the news that you'll be starring as the protagonist for the next Dumb & dumber movie. Congratulations, you will nail the character.
