ECRR RADIATION RISK REPORT: UTTER NONSENSE BASED ON PSEUDO SCIENCE, SEZ UNSCEAR'S GENTNER

Tony Wesolowsky (freelance writer based in Prague), "Low Exposure, High Risk; E.U. study finds radiation riskier than previously thought", In These Times, June 9, 2003

In an e-mail response to questions, Norman Gentner of the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR) called the ECRR findings "utter nonsense" based on "pseudo-scientific methodology."

But the ECCR says its calculations are in agreement with the observed incidence of cancer and ill health following disasters like Chernobyl.
