COMARE 10th report

Details

The aim of this, COMARE’s 10th report, is to review the earlier evidence and to present new data relating to childhood cancers around nuclear installations in Great Britain.

By doing this we have attempted to see if the claims of an excess of childhood cancer around some specific nuclear installations are a regular feature of the majority of the largest nuclear sites in Great Britain.
