The Government of Japan’s efforts to minimize the fear of radioactive issues is amazing. They even have the newspapers helping.
“Study: No radioactive cesium in 99% of Fukushima, Ibaraki residents ” April 11, 2013
“Some experts warn that food contaminated by radioactive materials that spewed into the atmosphere after the meltdowns following the Great East Japan Earthquake on March 11, 2011, can cause extreme internal exposure. If true, radioactive cesium would accumulate in the body, elevating the radiation doses in people aged 20 or older about a year after nuclear disaster started.
But the survey has shown that this has not happened.”

The article was Based on 2 studies that actually said:
Internal radiocesium contamination of adults and children in Fukushima 7 to 20 months after the Fukushima NPP accident as measured by extensive whole-body-counter surveys

“Conscientious and well-supervised food testing/screening and whole-body counting must be carried out continuously in Fukushima in order to maintain the low-level of internal exposure.”

“Differences between children and adults may reflect differences in cesium metabolism5 or greater attention to food and water consumption or changes in outdoor activity in children.”
The newspaper article gave the impression that there is no issue of contamination with food. (Eat up, no need to measure anything.)
In the same article, it gives the impression that 99% of the residents are not contaminated. (You were worried for no reason at all.)
“Study: No radioactive cesium in 99% of Fukushima, Ibaraki residents ” April 11, 2013
“Radioactive cesium has not been detected in 99 percent of people in Fukushima Prefecture, host of the stricken Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant, and neighboring Ibaraki Prefecture since March 2012, a study showed.”

“These results are not conclusive for the prefecture as a whole, but are consistent with results obtained from other municipalities in the prefecture, and with prefectural data. This does not mean, however, that Fukushima residents are free of internal exposure risks, as evidenced by a small number of senior citizens whose body burden exceeded 100 Bq/kg.
Only 21,785 screenings were done for this study. (P.S. The study does not indicate how many of the screenings were “repeat” people).

Internal Radiation Exposure After the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant Disaster
“Because data were collected from volunteers, the results may not be representative of the entire population in contaminated areas.”
Only 11,026 screenings were done for this study. (P.S. The study does not indicate how many of the screenings were “repeat” people).

Are those figures really representative of the number of people that actually live in those areas?
Another example of Ethics and Integrity.
