How Japanese Doctors Discovered Radiation Sickness — By Dying From It Themselves

On August 6, 1945, when the atomic bomb detonated over Hiroshima, Japanese doctors faced a medical crisis with no name, no treatment, and no precedent. This is the untold story of 67 physicians who documented acute radiation syndrome while dying from it themselves. Dr. Michihiko Hachiya, Dr. Fumio Shigeto, and Dr. Terufumi Sasaki treated thousands of patients while their own white blood cell counts plummeted. They created the first clinical definitions of radiation sickness, established dose-response curves, and documented symptom progression—all while experiencing the same deadly symptoms. In this documentary, you'll discover: How doctors identified radiation sickness without any prior medical literature The three phases of acute radiation syndrome discovered through autopsy of colleagues Why medical staff died at 58% casualty rates How 120,000 survivors were tracked for 75 years, creating modern radiation safety standards The shocking truth about long-term cancer rates in atomic bomb survivors Why their sacrifice built every radiation protection protocol used today This is not just a World War 2 story. This is the origin of radiation medicine, nuclear safety standards, and cancer treatment protocols—written in the blood of doctors who refused to evacuate. Based on declassified archives, medical diaries, and the Atomic Bomb Casualty Commission files. 🔔 Subscribe for more untold WW2 stories backed by primary sources 💬 Comment: Where are you watching from?
