@wellerstein@Joshua_Pollack Well, Hanford & Oak Ridge were vry large industrial operations. How many employed at each site for time period?
@SchwartzCNS @Joshua_Pollack Around 400-500k total. So it is around 1/10000 chance of fatality, 1/100 chance of disabling injury.

@wellerstein@Joshua_Pollack Right, but do you have total numbers for employment at each of those sites during MED? -
@SchwartzCNS
@Joshua_Pollack Through entire MED (e.g. '43-'46), the total is 400k Oak Ridge, 140k Hanford: http://blog.nuclearsecrecy.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/MDH-Book-I-General-Volume-8-Personnel-144.jpg …
