      No it isn't. There was an acute rise in number of thyroid cancer cases among children and teens from Chernobyl - 5000 in immediately contaminated areas in young. Smoking cancers hit in old age.

      The thyroid cancers are well documented. Thus far about 40 people have died from them

      If we're going to include non-fatal issues, smoking causes COPD in most smokers, often requiring lifelong medication. It also causes literally hundreds of other issues

      So a little different no? Vast majority of smokers will not get COPD or lung cancer. My grandparents for eg. the smokers lived longer never a related health problem both smoked until late 80s mid 90s. Immediate exposure radiation far greater immediate risk

      Again that is incorrect. 30 years of development is not immediate

      No cigarette ever killed anyone within days as a younger person. Radiation does and did at Chernobyl

      No it is NOT. YOU are wrong. You cited most smokers get COPD - that is INCORRECT. Nobody ever died within days of starting to smoke whereas they did at Chernobyl.

      Lol. I made a single mistake and admitted to it immediately. You've said more than a dozen totally wrong things - most recently, that thyroid cancer developed immediately - and doubled down or changed the topic. Farewell

          No, the thyroid cancer developed IN CHILDREN. That is, not in OLD AGE as smoking related cancers do. YOU are the one who has said the totally wrong thing. Saying most smokers get COPD is ALSO totally incorrect. And you are the doc. not me.

          So you have yet to get me on a single thing I have said that is actually wrong you've just tried to twist it and taken 'immediately' as absolutely literal.
