-4eTable 3 compares the total bone marrow dose (the critical organ for somstie radiation effects) for people living at Bikini, Rongelap, Utirik, Long Isiand, New York and Denver, Colorado. Since the people Living at Denver have a considerably higher natural radiation and medical, dencal . concriburion, the exposure to the people living there is probably higher chan people living on Bikini. The estimated dose to people on Lang Island is somewnat less chan Bikini doses, also it might be noted that many thousands of people living in areas of South America and India are exposed to higher levels chan indicated for Bikini due to high thorium content of sy the soil. There have been no reports of increased cancer or other illness in Denver or these other high level populations that might be related to cheir increased radiation exposure.” More recent data from radiological surveys last June at Bikini showing nigner than expected radiation levels in the interior of Bikini and higher levels in pandanus aad breadfruit have resulted in some further restrictions on the future living patterns of the Bikini people.
