"Once again 'paid the (nuclear) price', is 1 death. One."
Especially compared to the 19.700 deaths the tsunami took all in all.
But it is still not so simple. There are long term effects of radiation, many people likely will get cancer sooner and the whole mess is still not cleaned up.
And here where I live in germany, it is still advised against regulary eating mushrooms from the wood, because of one incident that took place 36 years ago.
But yes, the coal plants around here contributed worse, so I also believe it is wiser to not replace fission with coal.
