The Hanford Data – A Reply to Recent Criticisms BY ALICE STEWART, GEORGE KNEALE AND THOMAS MANCUSO According to the National Radiation Protection Board of Britain (NRPB) scientists from many disciplines view the conclusions reached by Mancuso and his associates in their studies of radiation workers as invalid. It is clear from the official report that two of the three cancers, which were found by Mancuso et al to be a special risk for workers in the nuclear industry, also feature as radiation-related diseases in their analyses of essentially the same records (Hanford data). But even so, the general consensus of opinion is that there are no grounds for believing that current safety recommendations are based on false premises. In this article the authors respond to criticisms given in the NRPB report and give their reasons for not agreeing with the official opinion.
