A long-term investigation of environmental radioactivity and public health around a nuclear power plant

The aim of this work is to reveal impacts of a nuclear power plant on environmental radioactivity and public health since commission in the South China Sea. After long-term monitoring, it turns out that radioactivity in ambient air environment, water, soil, sweet potato, rice, chicken, lamb, butterfish and prawn meet demands of national environment protection standards and food safety standards in China. After 6 years' statistic check of local residents, the top tree diseases before and after the plant's commission remained pulmonary tuberculosis, hand-foot-and-mouth disease, and hepatitis B.
