Method Ionizing Radiation CTB Camping Plan

[Sigh_Sigh_Sigh]

There's a place not too far from me in the UK few people know about which was once the site of a former chemical plant. Part of the site was redeveloped after a few years however the main area of land where a explosion event occurred is still wasteland so I took a Geiger Counter and I was astonished at the reading ranging between a lethal 45,000 to 50,000 μSv/hr at the epicentre within a 3x3 meter² area but around 500 meters away the reading was just 100 μSv/hr! I stayed a couple hours at the epicentre and became nauseous and wanted to leave however I do wonder if it would be a good place to camp with some form of anti-sickness medication and allow the radiation to take hold and consequently CTB?

Likely to be a slow and tortuous death. I can't imagine there being a drug strong enough to counteract the agony of something like this.

That's fuckin gnarly.

Google the survivors of Hiroshima or Nagasaki. Some died fast, many died slow. A bad choice.

If I assume you stayed for about 3 hours, at a rate of 45 mSv/hr, you absorbed 0.135 Sv of radiation. Depending on the type (alpha particles, xray/gamma ray, etc...), you might already be at a higher risk of cancer in the future, although you should be okay for the meantime. In some hasty research, about 4-5 Sv will kill in 60 days, while 10 Sv can kill you in hours. For that to happen, if we assume you are receiving the low end of the dosing per hour (45 mSv/hr), you'd need to stay for a little over 9 days. I can't think of a way to do that without going insane from the agony that will be your reality. I don't know of any means of staying unconscious for that long either, even if just for the last 1-2 days it'd be hard to go unconscious for that long (afaik). I'd say it's a bad idea, I wouldn't attempt.

I didn't even have to click to know which case that was. Utterly horrifying.
