Plume Countermeasures: Evacuation, Sheltering and Thyroid Blocking
HKSARGDBCP – Chapter 6 CHAPTER 6 PLUME COUNTERMEASURES: EVACUATION, SHELTERING AND THYROID BLOCKING Introduction 6.1 The principal countermeasures against plume exposure pathways are evacuation, sheltering and thyroid blocking - (a) Evacuation Evacuation is one of the most commonly considered urgent protective actions for people located in close proximity in the event of nuclear or radiological emergency. Timely evacuation can prevent exposures via all possible exposure pathways against all types of radioactive substances by removing individuals from the proximity of the emergency. However, evacuation may be dangerous for special groups in the population, such as non- ambulatory patients, elderly and disabled. Logistic challenges may be faced under adverse weather or traffic conditions. (b) Sheltering Sheltering can also provide effective protection against exposure via major exposure pathways in suitable circumstances. For example, evacuation and thyroid blocking measures may not be practicable during inclement weather such as rainstorm, especially for vulnerable groups of the population. Rapid approach and passage of the plume may also be countered by immediate sheltering. Sheltering is relatively easier to implement but the protection is not total and cannot be sustained over long periods of time. General guidelines for sheltering can be found at Annex 6.1. (c) Thyroid Blocking Radioactive iodine is among the most common fission products released in a nuclear accident. People in close vicinity to the accident site and emergency responders may be exposed to significant levels of radioactive iodine. Infants and young children are the more susceptible groups. Thyroid blocking agent, taken before the arrival of the plume or within a few hours of the arrival of the plume, can effectively block the thyroid gland’s uptake of radioactive iodine and so reduce the risk of thyroid cancer. -
