    You’re right coal deaths are just confined to mines, respiratory illnesses and excess cancers from chronic low dose exposure.

        No, I’m saying that saying the radiation concerns specifically of coal output isn’t a concern with regards to health.

        So chronic low level exposure to radiation is fine?

          I’m not saying it’s fine, I’m saying it feels like an order of magnitude less of a concern compared to all of the other bad things that can happen from coal smoke.
