April 19, the Ministry of Education, the provisional measure of radiation dose on the playground when school “20 mSv per year” have been established. In contrast, “Japan Medical Association” is May 12, “for a child, there should be more careful for the country as a” reduction of the number, the opinion announced more restrictive standards that call for .

Begin with ministry standards, the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) issued on March 21 that “as a reference level after the convergence of an emergency like this, from 1 to 20 mSv / year in the range of You can also think “It’s based on a statement that the ministry of 1 to 20, is taking its maximum value.

In 1 mSv and 20 mSv. These two values ??together, what and how much of a difference. But a simple calculation purposes only, assuming that the outside 24 hours a day, equivalent to a year 20 mSv per hour, and microsievert 2.283. On the other hand, 0.114 mSv per year per hour is calculated as microsievert.

The amount of radiation per hour every day around the country, the ministry announced that the newspaper is published daily. Per hour to exceed 2.283 microsievert, but only the area around the primary, comes to 0.114, and the sun would also include Tsukuba (May 15-minute measurement.)
