Nuclear Emergency Response: Atomic Priests or an International SWAT Team?

In response to

What three points, details or references from the text did you follow up on to advance your understanding of the complexities of emergency response?

I further examined more details about the Fukushima disaster not mentioned in the article as I don't remember much from when this disaster occured. I also examined more about the first responders at Fukushima and the efforts that were made to attempt to minimize the effects of the disaster on an individual scale. I then looked into other similar disasters, like the Chernobyl disaster, that have occurred that I was not very familiar with and compared them to the Fukushima disaster.
