Port Hope uranium workers had lower mortality and cancer
than rest of Canadian population, says British Medical Journal study

Post blurb: Numerous studies over the years have proved that uranium
processing operations in Port Hope, Ontario had little if any
environmental and health impacts on the area and its inhabitants. A
new study published in the BMJ Open examined specifically the workers
who were directly involved in uranium processing. It found levels of
mortality and cancer that were lower than those in the general
Canadian population. Though the study corroborates all the credible
scientific assessments so far, Steve Aplin doubts it will have much
effect on the activities of professional anti-nuclear fearmongers like
Helen Caldicott. That is because Dr. Caldicott is more interested in
making money from book sales than in providing credible scientific
information.
