shielding, having people in buildings, metal objects, things like that, to keep people away from the radiation is important. and then, time is the third one. so, if you must be exposed, for example, those people who work in these areas, or who are trying to stem the damage, what we do is spread those times around among those people to try to minimize any one individual risk. shepard: dr. james o donnell live with us from case in cleveland. good to talk to you, doctor, thank you. in the middle of the unfolding really, destruction across northern japan we re seeing signs of hope, rescue against all odds. we ll show you some of them. that s next.
