RSH
was organized by independent
individuals knowledgeable in radiation health effects science, and
related radiation protection, and medical applications, public policies.
They know the scientific literature, misrepresented data, and
wasted public funds, that do not protect public health.
Government agencies suppress data, including radiation hormesis, and foster radiation fear. They support extreme, costly, radiation protection policies; and preclude using low-dose radiation for health and medical benefits that apply hormesis, in favor of using (more profitable) drug therapies. Wasted public costs/funds exceed US $ 1 trillion, for NO public health benefits.
The extensive data are not adequately considered by the primary radiation protection bodies and radiation researchers funded by the government agencies. Contrary to extensive data in whole organisms, they presume that low-level radiation causes adverse health effects linearly down to zero dose - the "linear no-threshold" (LNT) presumption. This presumption is also discredited by current knowledge of biology and carcinogenesis. This partial data summary is continuously updated. Thousands of experiments that contradict the LNT are documented. Extensive efforts by Dr. T.D. Luckey, Dr. Sohei Kondo, and many others, have "compiled the data" and refute claims that data support the LNT. These are voluminous data sources. They contrast with the very few, poor, and even technically biased, "studies" that are misrepresented to justify the LNT in order to foster public fear, and to support costly radiation protection and medical therapy policies.
