Title: Hard Duty: A Woman’s Experience at Chernobyl
Author: Natalia Manzurova and Cathie Sullivan, translators: Masanori Oba, Hisako Oba, and Kentaro Gotoh
Keywords: Experience, Chernobyl
Abstract: This is almost one year anniversary since we started gathering for anti-nukes causes last year. One of the projects that we had in our minds was to inform people about nuclear issues through translation of the works that are done from accidents prior to Fukushima. We believe that both the effort and the work of translation is a social change. Two community educators from Berkeley and NNA members, Masanori Oba, Hisako Oba, and Kentaro Gotoh translated “Hard Duty”, a record of Chernobyl cleaners after the accident by Natalia Manzurova and Cathie Sullivan into Japanese. We honor the work by two authors and the translation team, and share the link with the introduction by Masanori Oba. This work is free to distribute only with credit of the authors and the translators.

Abstract: Ten years follow-up investigation of intellectual development of 250 persons from Belarus exposed in utero following the Chernobyl accident and a control group of 250 persons from non- and slightly contaminated regions has been conducted. Neuropsychiatry and psychological examinations were performed among persons of both groups at the age of 6-7, 10-12,and 15-16 years. Mean antenatal internal dose to thyroid arising from the intake of 131I among persons of exposed group is 390±550 mGy (maximal dose – 4100 mGy),in control group – 35±65 mGy. Mean antenatal external dose among persons of exposed group is 10±13 mGy,maximal dose – 91 mGy. At the age of 6-7 years the persons in the exposed group had a mean Full Scale IQ lower than the control group (89.6±10.2 vs 92.1±10.5,p=0.007). At the age of 10-12 years there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups (94.3±10.4 vs 95.8±10.9,p=0.117).
Positive dynamics of intellectual development in persons of both groups has been observed up to age of 15-16 years (98.7±10.2 è 99.5±10.5,p=0.171). No statistically significant correlation was found in exposed group between individual thyroid dose as well as individual antenatal external dose and IQ at the different ages. In both groups we notice a positive moderate correlation between IQ of persons and the educational level of their parents. We conclude that probably a significant role in the genesis of borderline intellectual functioning and emotional disorders in the exposed group of persons was played by unfavorable social-psychological and social-cultural factors.
