News24 reports that 91 Eskom employees suffered radiation contamination while doing maintenance at the Koeberg nuclear power plant on Monday.
During maintenance on Koeberg Unit One, 91 workers tested positive for cobalt 58 as they left the site on September 12, said Eskom spokesperson Karen de Villiers.
The workers then had body scans to search for the radiation. It is believed that they were contaminated with airborne radiation, possibly from dust particles.
Yes, and?
Not to put too bright a light on this, but these chaps are working at a nuclear power plant, for a company that has a proven track record of somewhat disappointing levels of foresight.
Radiated workers, your boss is a real-world version of this guy:
C. Montgomery Burns!
I mean, we saw this coming, didn’t we? Non?
