The atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki caused long-term radiation deaths.

the verdict
INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
6 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki caused long-term radiation deaths?

Unclear. Peer-reviewed reviews of the survivor cohorts report persistent excess radiation-related cancers and other late radiation effects among Hiroshima and Nagasaki survivors, and one study finds a dose-response for myelodysplastic syndromes decades after exposure. None of the items gives figures for long-term radiation deaths, so they support the claim only in part.
