T was not exposedto radiation so why do I have to be examined?
The doctors ex-cnine people who were not exposed because they need to know

when the exposed people become sick, if their sickness is caused by radiation or

somethingelse. If vou were not exposed and got sick and your brother was exposed
and got the samesickness, then the doctors knowthat the sickness was not caused
byradiation. You do not have to be examinedif you do not want to be. Remember,
though, that you are helping your family and friends when youare examined. Also,
you are receiving a free medical examination bythe best doctors in the worid.
