Biological Citizenship: The Science and Politics of Chernobyl-Exposed Populations

In response to

How (if at all) is emergency response addressed in the article or report?

The article addresses emergency response in two ways by addressing emergency medicine in a long and short-term fashion. It talks about first responder contamination, and whether or not the containment was well handled. The review of the past emphasizes a greater need to prepare for the future. Another part of the article discusses the severe number of individuals that were affected, and thus the problems arising from such a large number of individuals.

The Waiting Room

In response to

How is the argument or narrative made and sustained? How much scientific information is provided, for example? Does the film have emotional appeal?

The Waiting Room, being a documentary, uses a plethora of personal annecdotes in order to support the argument emotionally. The arguement is supported from more than one direction which, in my opinion, makes this such an empowering film. The film combats the problem from both the patient and clinical side showing frustrations on both sides.
