Reducing harms after Nuclear, Radiological and Chemical Incidents - Sir Chris Whitty
Nuclear, radiological and chemical incidents have the potential to cause major harm.
The risk of nuclear and radiological events causing health effects can usually be significantly reduced by relatively simple measures, which are based on the properties of the chemicals released, especially at a distance from the incident.
Chemicals that can cause harm, such as organophosphate and mustard chemicals, need to be understood to mitigate the risks and establish medical countermeasures.
This lecture was recorded by Sir Chris Whitty on 28th November 2023 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.
Chris was Gresham Professor of Physic at Gresham College from 2018 to 2022, and Visiting Professor of Public Health 2015-2018 and again since 2022.
He is the Chief Medical Officer (CMO) for England and the UK Government's Chief Medical Adviser.
