Apparently more people died from evacuating than from the actual nuclear disaster. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fukushima_Daiichi_nuclear_disaster_casualties Death(s) 1 from radiation, 2,202 from evacuation

Thousands died from the tsunami yet the reactor gets more coverage. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_T%C5%8Dhoku_earthquake_and_tsunami Casualties 15,896 deaths, 6,157 injured, 2,537 people missing

Edit:Thank you kind stranger for the Reddit gold.

I live in korea. The entire east Asia was panicking. Fake news about radioactive mutations and all sorts of bullshits. Ugh
