@PawelK My health is okay. Covid-19 mainly effects my digestive system so I have to gain weight back. I have considered Eastern Europe before but it was usually Russia or Ukraine. I have a dream of Pripyat being made livable again.

@PawelK It is quite similar in theory to how we treat asbestos in the US. If epoxy resin was used to impregnate and coat it, it doesn't have to be removed as long as the epoxy is in good condition. The same could be done with Pripyat and a special epoxy blend. Carbon and Lead would effectively block the radiation from the surfaces. There is a large communication area with a working Nuclear Power Plant a few Km away.

@PawelK Pripyat is an old model that could be a new model for the world. Applied Science could repopulate the city. The area around the city would be the real problem.

@PawelK That's part of the solution. Cooper Sulfate is a biocide. Trees and other small plants can be used to remove radiation from the soil over time. The Elephant's foot and the old hospital are worrisome. The sub basement had a corridor directly to Chernobyl. This is where the workers were decontaminated. Very hot zone.

@PawelK My father worked at a Nuclear Power Facility and rewired the control center. He had a picture of him holding a component that was the fail safe. He was there when the radiation made its way into the US. It caused some alarm at first because everything was reading above average.
