Measures to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus in the event of a nuclear emergency
Avoiding exposure to radiation is the priority, As a general rule, do not ventilate when evacuating indoors in order to prevent air fromoutside entering the building.
*However, to prevent the spread of infection, please ventilate for a few minutes once every 30 minutes while being mindful of therelease of radioactive substances.

Six points of usual infection prevention measures❶Be sure to wear
a mask, wash
your hands, andventilate❷Even when outdoors,

What is a nuclear emergency ?

A nuclear emergency is a disaster that occurs the unlikely event of an accident at a nuclear power station that causes
leakage of radioactive substances that impacts the environment and local residents.
Unlike disasters such as earthquakes and typhoons, the radiation released in a nuclear emergency is invisible to the eye andcannot be felt with the ﬁve senses.
However, by implementing appropriate countermeasures, it is possible to contain and reduce radiation exposure and pollution.
It is important to know in advance about the characteristics of a nuclear emergency and the possible eﬀects, such as radiation
exposure, and to remain calm as you take appropriate action!

Characteristics of a nuclear emergency●The existence of radiation can be detected using a radiation detector (Geiger counter), but because radiation isinvisible to the eye and cannot be felt with the ﬁve senses, it is impossible to determine for yourself whether or not
you have been exposed to radiation.
●Because specialized knowledge regarding nuclear energy is required, the roles, instructions, and advice of specialist
organizations are extremely important.
●It is essential that you carry out indoor evacuations or evacuate based on information provided by prefectures and/or
cities via television, radio, and other media.

What happens when a nuclear emergency occurs?
When an accident occurs at a nuclear power station, radioactive substances are released into the surrounding
environment, and people may be exposed to radiation.

Difference between "radiation exposure" and "radiation contamination"

External radiation exposure and internal radiation exposure*There are ways to avoid radiation exposure and contamination.
●Radiation exposure: radiation enters a person s body.
●Contamination: radioactive substances stick to the person s skinand/or clothing; these radioactive substances can be washed or
wiped oﬀ (decontamination).

*Care needs to be taken with regard to not only external radiation
exposure but also internal radiation exposure.
●External radiation exposure: radiation enters a person s body from the outside.
●Internal radiation exposure: radiation enters a person s internal organs or
tissues due to radioactive substances that enter the body via breathing,food/drink, or wounds.

Flow of measures to be taken in a nuclear emergency
In the unlikely event that a nuclear emergency should occur at the nuclear power station, preventative protection
measures (indoor evacuation, evacuation, etc.) are to be implemented immediately in accordance with thepredetermined evaluation criteria based on the situation at the nuclear power station and the results of monitoring at
the time of the emergency. Decisions regarding the implementation of speciﬁc preventative protection measures areexpertly made by the Nuclear Regulation Authority, and concrete instructions are issued by prefectures andmunicipalities. Pay attention to information provided by the prefecture and/or municipalities and act calmly!

Indoorevacuation

How do I evacuate indoors?

Indoor evacuation means staying inside your home in order to reduce the eﬀects of exposure to radiation.
If residents are directed to evacuate indoors, please enter a building as quickly as possible, close the doors and windows, turnoﬀ air conditioners and ventilation fans, stay away from the windows, and otherwise avoid exposure to radiation. Wearing amask over your nose and mouth is an eﬀective method of protecting against radioactive substances.

If an order to evacuation indoors is issued....

Stay calm andfollow the
instructions①Go inside yourhome or anotherbuilding②As a rule,
avoid goingoutdoors

In order to avoid internal andexternal radiation exposure,people who are outsideshould go inside their homes
or a nearby building.

In order to avoid unnecessary
exposure to radiation, avoid goingoutside until you receive notiﬁcationfrom the prefectures/cities that it
is safe to go outside.

③Close the doors andwindows and turnoﬀ air conditioners④Weatherstripping
windows and doors
is eﬀective at keeping
out radioactive
substances

To prevent outside air fromentering the building, close
all the doors and windows,
and turn oﬀ air conditioners,
ventilation fans and anyother device that allows
external air to enter thebuilding (air conditioners
that do not draw in external
air may be used).

To prevent radioactive
substances from entering theroom through windows and small
openings, weatherstrip air vents
and window/window frame
cracks. Be sure to wear a mask.

⑤Stay away fromthe windows
while indoors⑥Change clothing,
wash your hands,
and gargle

In order to reduce externalradiation exposure causedby radiation coming fromoutside, keep away from
windows as much as
possible and stay in thecenter of the room.

After radioactive substances havebeen released, when you return
home, remove your clothes andstore them in a plastic bag separate
from your other clothing and wash
your hands, face and bodythoroughly with soap and water.

⑦Cover foodwith lids orplastic wrap

⑧Checkaccurate
information

To prevent contaminationfrom radioactive substances,
cover food with lids orplastic wrap. Also, whenstoring drinking water,pour water into PET
bottles or other airtightcontainers.

Pay attention to instructions
from administrative agencies
issued via television, radio, thenuclear emergency app, theinternet, or the emergency
municipal radio communication
system.

Indoor evacuation is an eﬀective method of preventing radiation exposure.
When a nuclear emergency occurs, it is important to avoid or reduce the eﬀects of radiation. As a priority, indoor
evacuation within the UPZ is carried out in accordance with international thinking on radiation protection.
Being outdoors will pose the risk of increased radiation exposure. In addition to evacuating indoors as a preventative
measure before radioactive substances are released, it is possible to reduce both external and internal radiation
exposure by evacuating indoors when radioactive substances (plumes) pass overhead or fall on ground surfaces orbuildings in the form of rain etc. When monitoring at the time of an emergency conﬁrms that radioactive substances(plumes) have already passed overhead, indoor evacuation orders will be lifted.

▼Eﬀects of indoor evacuation
Preventative measures against radiation exposure

External radiation exposure

Internal radiation exposure

External radiation exposure occurs when aperson is exposed to the radiation (gamma rays,etc.) emitted by radioactive substances in theatmosphere or deposited on ground surfaces.

Internal radiation exposure occurs whenradioactive substances enter the body by wayof breathing or consuming food or drink.

Avoid breathing in and consuming radiation!

Block (shield from) radiation!

Buildings have airtight construction and a shielding eﬀect.
Radioactiveplume

It is possible for building walls and roofs to reduce the impact ofradiation. Weatherstripping on the windows, doors, and otheropenings increases the building s airtightness, thereby preventing
radioactive substances in the air from entering and reducing theamount of radioactive substances inhaled.

Source: Calculating Radiation Exposure Amount and the Eﬀects of Protective Measures in a Nuclear Emergency (in Japanese)*In general, concrete buildings block radiation more eﬀectively than wooden ones. However, with regard to thyroid exposure, there is little
diﬀerence in eﬀectiveness due to building structure, and buildings with a high level of airtightness are more eﬀective in blocking radiation.
*Exposure to radiation is not reduced inside automobiles. (Radiation passes through vehicle frames and window glass, etc.)▼Points to note regarding indoor evacuation

・Indoor evacuation may continue for several days. You should endeavor to stockpile food and drink on an everyday basis.
Also, if long-term indoor evacuation is deemed necessary, protective measures may be switched from indoor evacuation toevacuation.
*In Tottori Prefecture, you are requested to stockpile enough food and drink to last for a minimum of three days.
・In the event that a situation is anticipated that will also aﬀect an area/areas outside the UPZ, the Nuclear Regulation
Authority may decide to expand the indoor evacuation area based on the status of the nuclear power station facilities.
・If it is not possible for you to implement indoor evacuation in your own home, it is possible to evacuate to a designatedconcrete indoor evacuation facility.→ Please refer to pp. 22‒27 for a list of designated facilities.

▼What to do when a storm or typhoon also occurs

・In the event of compound emergencies, such as storms and typhoons, priority is given to securing safety, and indoor
evacuation is prioritized until safety is assured. Once the weather has improved or safety has otherwise been secured,orders may switch to evacuation.
・In the event that your house has collapsed because of an earthquake, evacuate to a concrete indoor evacuation facility or
nearby designated evacuation center set up by the city to secure safety or an evacuation destination.

Evacuation
methods

How should I evacuate?

Please act in accordance with evacuation instructions issued by the prefectural government and city administrations.
In addition to evacuating using your own vehicle, you can go to the temporary assembly center and board a bus arranged by
the prefectures and cities to evacuate.
Be sure to check which zones have been ordered to evacuate, your evacuation destination, and the time at which evacuation is
to begin, and remain calm!

*For evacuation facilities and temporary assembly centers for each district, please refer to pp. 22‒27.

If evacuation becomes necessary ...
①Obtaincorrect
information

stay calm andfollow the
instructions!

②Wear a plastic
raincoatand hatTo prevent radioactive
substances fromadhering to your body,cover your exposed skinby wearing a plastic
raincoat with a hood,
long-sleeved jacket, hat,and other protective
clothing.

Prefectures and cities will
convey evacuation directives
and necessary measures
via television, radio, thenuclear emergency app,the internet, the emergency
municipal radio communication
system, sound trucks, andother methods. Be sure toobtain correct information
about how you should
evacuate.

③Prevent
internal
radiation
exposure by
wearing amask

Do not forget your valuables!

④Evacuate inyour own
car or bybus

If an evacuation is ordered,either evacuate in your own
car or go to a temporary
assembly center and board
a bus provided by theprefecture or cities toevacuate. When evacuating,be sure to lock your home,
turn oﬀ the electricity breakers,
and alert your neighbors to
the evacuation.

To avoid breathing inradioactive substances,
wear a mask or cover
your mouth and nosewith a handkerchief or
towel that has been
dampened and thoroughly
wrung out.

Temporary assembly centers⑤Evacuate
indoors at thetemporaryassembly
center

⑥Set yourvehicle s air
conditioner
to internal
circulation

In order to prevent internalradiation exposure andexternal radiation
exposure, remainindoors as much as
possible at the temporary
assembly center.

When evacuating, close
vehicle windows to prevent
radioactive substancesfrom entering the vehicle.
Also, either avoid using the
air conditioner or switch
the setting to internal
circulation.

Implementation of phased evacuations(when evacuation becomes necessary for all areas within a 30 km radius of the nuclear power station)
After radioactive substances have been released from the nuclear power station, evacuation orders and other protective actions for certain
areas are decided based on the results of radiation measurements.
Tottori Prefecture formulates evacuation plans envisioning worst-case scenarios whereby evacuation orders are issued for the entire UPZ.
Plans are formulated so that phased evacuation is carried out starting from those districts closest to the Shimane Nuclear Power Station inorder to avoid traﬃc congestion on evacuation roads.
Evacuation areas are to be divided into four zones (see the map below) and phased evacuations are to be carried out at ﬁve-hour intervals(Tottori (1) ➡ Tottori (2) ➡ Tottori (3) ➡ Tottori (4)) , thereby preventing traﬃc congestion and shortening travel time (time spent invehicles), which reduces the risk of radiation exposure.
Conducting simultaneous evacuations rather than phased evacuations lengthens the evacuation travel time (time spent in vehicles),increasing the risk of radiation exposure.

Evacuation procedures for preschool and school students
If an accident occurs at the nuclear power station and develops into a Site Emergency (SE), kindergartens andschools will immediately be closed and the safety of preschool and school students will be ensured through indoor
evacuation and other measures. If the situation deteriorates further and evacuation orders are issued before it ispossible for the children to be collected by their parents/guardians, teachers are to take the children immediately
to the evacuation center designated by the school from where the children are to be collected by theirparents/guardians. Be sure to discuss and conﬁrm what to do among family members if a nuclear emergency
occurs.

*With regard to residents of social care facilities located outside a 30 km radius of the nuclear power station, indoor evacuation is
implemented, but evacuation may be necessary in some cases depending on how the emergency situation progresses.
*The working organizations (Police, Fire Department, Coast Guard, and Self-Defense Force) will establish a response system to support
evacuation in unforeseen circumstances.

Evacuation of tourists and other temporary residents
Information about the nuclear power station accident will be communicated via emergency municipal radio
communication systems and roadside information billboards, and visitors will be urged to return home as soon as
possible. If it is not possible for visitors to return home before evacuations begin, they should go to the nearest
temporary assembly center and evacuate together with local residents.

Evacuation of foreign nationals
As with local residents, foreign nationals should go to the temporary assembly center and then evacuate to an
evacuation center. With regard to nuclear emergency information, multilingual information services will be provided, andinformation will also be posted on the Tottori Prefecture oﬃcial website in easy-to-understand simpliﬁed Japanese.

12Which roads should I take when evacuating?

Taking stableiodineWhat kind of medicine is "stable iodine"?

Taking stable iodine has the eﬀect of reducing the risk of thyroid cancer by preventing the accumulation of radioactive iodinethat has entered the body in the thyroid gland.
Stable iodine is administered on the instructions of the national government or prefectures and cities based on the decision of
the Nuclear Regulation Authority. Stable iodine is also stockpiled at temporary assembly centers, schools, and residential
welfare facilities to enable immediate distribution when necessary.
If receiving your stable iodine dose would be diﬃcult at the time of an emergency, it is possible to receive your dose in advance.

❶Purpose and eﬀects
During a nuclear emergency, radioactive substances, such as radioactive iodine and radioactive cesium, are released.
Of these, radioactive iodine that enters the body via breathing and foods/drinks accumulates inthe thyroid gland in the throat, can potentially cause thyroid cancer in the future.
Taking stable iodine prevents radioactive iodine that has entered the body from accumulating in
the thyroid gland and prevents and ameliorates the eﬀects of internal radiation exposure for a▲Stable iodine (pill and jelly)
24-hour period. The eﬀect of this is to reduce the risk of developing thyroid cancer.
However, stable iodine has no eﬀect against external radiation exposure or internal radiation exposure from causes other than radioactive
iodine. For this reason, major protective measures, such as early indoor evacuation and evacuation are of the utmost importance.

❷Priority recipients
Priority recipients for taking stable iodine are expectant and nursing mothers and minors (including infants). Persons
aged 40 years or older (excluding expectant and nursing mothers) are said to have a low need to take stable iodine.

❸Distribution points and timing of administration●Timing of stable iodine administration is to be decided by the national Nuclear Regulation Authority, and instructions will be issued
by the Nuclear Emergency Response Headquarters (Prime Minister), prefecture, or municipality. As a general rule, stable iodine
doses are to be taken once and will be distributed at temporary assembly centers when instructions to administer the stableiodine have been issued.
●Temporary assembly centers in Yonago City and Sakaiminato City have stockpiles of stable iodine. There are also stockpiles
located at schools (for students as well as local residents) and residential welfare facilities (for facility users).
●If you do not receive a stable iodine dose at a temporary assembly center and take it before evacuating, the medicine is also
distributed at evacuation screening points, so it is possible for you to take the stable iodine at one of these points.

▼Distribution points

For residents of the UPZ for whom it is diﬃcult (burdensome) to receive their stable iodine dose at a temporary assembly center because there areyoung children in the household, those who desire to may receive their dose in advance at advance distribution brieﬁngs held in Yonago City andSakaiminato City (around autumn of each year) or from the Yonago Health Center (every second Monday and every fourth Tuesday)(advanceapplication system) so that they can evacuate promptly.
Stable iodine [website address] https://www.pref.tottori.lg.jp/278822.htm❹Dosage and Cautions
Dosage is determined based on age. (Example: in the case of pills, one pill for elementary school students and two pills for juniorhigh school students or older.) As a general rule, infants take the prescribed dosage in liquid or jelly form. It is extremely rare forserious side eﬀects to result from taking stable iodine, but caution is required.
Those who cannot take stable iodine: Those who have a history of hypersensitivity to the ingredients of stable iodine or to iodine.
Those who need to be especially careful when taking stable iodine (if you think any of the following may apply to you, please consult your family doctor):
history of hypersensitivity to iodinated contrast agents, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, renal dysfunction, hyperkalemia, congenital myotonia, history of
hypocomplementemic urticarial vasculitis, pulmonary tuberculosis, history of Duhring's dermatitis herpetiformis*As a general rule, you may take stable iodine if you are aged under 40 years. (Expectant and nursing mothers may take stable iodine even if they are aged 40 years or older.)14

Screening at time ofevacuation fromaﬀected zone

What kind of testing is evacuation screening?

This screening process is carried out to determine whether or not there are any radioactive substances on thesurface of a person s body. Screening is carried out in the order of testing the vehicle, testing an evacuee grouprepresentative, and testing all evacuees. Testing of representatives and individual evacuees concentrates on areas of
the body where there is a high possibility that radioactive substances will stick (head, face, hands, soles of shoes).
Screening points will be set up along evacuation routes, so be sure to undergo screening and obtain a screening
certiﬁcate!
It is a big relief for evacuees to receive conﬁrmation that no radioactive substances have attached to their bodies during
evacuation.

FAQ
Q：Why are vehicles tested?
A：In general, more radioactive substances attach tovehicles, which are left outdoors, than to the bodies ofresidents who have been evacuating indoors. For thisreason, vehicles are tested instead of residents.

Q：Is it OK to test only the representative of a group of residents?
A：In the case of a group of family members who have been evacuating indoors
together, evacuating together in the family vehicle, or any group of residents
who have been undertaking the same actions together, a grouprepresentative is ﬁrst tested. (If there are found to be radioactive substances
attached to the representative, all members of the group are tested.)

What is decontamination?
Decontamination is the process of removing radioactive substances
attached to the surface of a person s body (skin, clothing, etc.). It is
possible to remove radioactive substances using a wet wipe. If thelevel of contamination is high and it is diﬃcult for decontamination
to be carried out eﬀectively at the screening point, the person willbe transported to a medical institution for decontamination.

What happens with thehealthcare system when anuclear emergency occurs?

Measures are in place to ensure that healthcare continues to be available even in the event of a nuclear
emergency.
Sixteen medical institutions in Tottori Prefecture are designated as medical institutions for nuclear
emergencies. In addition, a system is in place to provide appropriate treatment for patients who have or may
have been exposed to radiation through collaboration with the Center for Advanced Radiation Emergency
Medicine and the Nuclear Emergency Medical Support Center.

measured?

Environmental radiation is measured regularly under normal conditions, but in the event of a nuclear emergency, thescope and frequency are greatly intensiﬁed in order to provide data for determining whether or not to order an
evacuation, restrict food and drink consumption, or implement other appropriate protective measures.
Measurement data is made available to the general public via Tottori Prefecture s oﬃcial website and thenuclear emergency app.

Knowledge
about radiation in
everyday life

Basic knowledge about radiation

The way to protect yourself from radiation is to stay away from radioactive substances (distance),
block radiation (shielding), and shorten the length of time you are exposed to radiation (time).

Radioactivity, radiation, and radioactive substances
Comparing radioactive substances to a light bulb, the strength of radioactivity (becquerel) can be likened to thestrength of the light from a light bulb (watt).When the radiation emitted by radioactive substances enters aperson s body, the impact on the body (sievert) is equivalent to the brightness of the light bulb (lux).

〔Becquerel (Bq)〕〔Sievert (Sv)〕*This unit is also used to indicate substances that areradioactive (radioactive substances).

Units for radioactivity and radiation▼Becquerel (Bq): Unit expressing the strength of radioactivity

Some atoms have an unstable nature whereby the nucleus is not wellbalanced and breaks down easily. Such atoms are called radioactive
substances". One becquerel shows the activity of an amount ofradioactive material in which one nucleus breaks down per second(thereby releasing radiation).

▼Sievert (Sv): unit expressing the impact of radiation on thehuman bodyThis unit shows the degree of impact on the human body when exposed
to radiation. When identical values are obtained after calculations using
this unit, the degree of impact on the human body is the same regardlessof whether the source of radiation is national radiation, artiﬁcial radiation
or from external radiation exposure or internal radiation exposure.

Types and penetrating power of radiation
There are three diﬀerent types of radiation (radioactive rays): alpha (α), beta (β), and gamma (γ).
Radiation has the ability to penetrate and pass though substances, but the degree to which the radiation is able
to do this diﬀers according to the type of radiation.
Radiation has the ability to penetrate and pass through various substances.

Radiation in everyday life
In our everyday lives, we are constantly exposed toradiation from the world of nature. We are exposed
to radiation from the land and from space; radiation
can also be found in the air and in our food. Thesetypes of radiation are called natural radiation".
We are also exposed to radiation when undergoing
medical examinations or treatments (x-rays, etc.),
and this radiation is called artiﬁcial radiation".
Natural radiation and artiﬁcial radiation are thesame type of radiation and have the same
properties.
