1998

On 29th May 1998, we left Minsk with Nesterenko for Polessie, a natural paradise in the south of the country, half in Ukraine and half in Belarus, at the very centre of the area in which Chernobyl exploded. We were returning there, after our first visit eight years earlier, with this extraordinary person as our guide. We wanted to gain a better understanding, from as close to the victims as possible, of the mechanisms that had reduced them to the status of guinea pigs and to document the radioprotection work undertaken by Nesterenko in the face of the Ministry of Health’s inertia. After a night in Mozyr, on the very edge of the 100 km zone traced around Chernobyl on the map, we joined the teams from his independent institute in their work, measuring the children from the most contaminated villages using a Human Radiation Spectrometer (HRS), and at the same time teaching families new hygiene techniques.
