Considering only 1 person died directly as a result of Fukushima, but over 2000 died from the unnecessary panic caused by the response, that may be an apt comparison.
If by one, you mean the one with lung cancer that has died but not the 6 with cancer or leukemia that aren't dead yet, yeah, technically one so far. And we're ignoring the 16 not dead from hydrogen explosions, and the two that got radiation burns.
As for the response, is it your opinion as an expert on nuclear science and disaster response that evacuation should not occur in the case of a level seven incident (highest possible) on the International Nuclear Event Scale? Are your multiple degrees even from accredited universities?
