Professor
Yury Bandazheuski has been studying the effects of radiation on human health for over 30 years. Former political prisoner, doctor of medical sciences, former rector of the Homel Medical University told Radio Svaboda whether the scale of the Chernobyl problems has diminished and what is the danger of the Belarusian nuclear power plant.
Bandazheuski was one of the first in the scientific world to discover a causal relationship between the effects of small doses of radiation on the human body and the occurrence of serious diseases.
His research has been widely studied and is studied all over the world, but in Belarus, they became a reason for criminal prosecution since the authorities saw different ways of eliminating the consequences of the Chernobyl disaster.
