After 10 years advising survivors of the Fukushima disaster about radiation, Masaharu Tsubokura thinks the evacuations posed a far bigger health risk.ã2021/3/5
ãKami was calling from Tokyo, explaining that physicians were urgently needed. He asked whether Tsubokura could volunteer in Hamadoâriâa local name for Fukushima prefectureâs coastal region. Kami says he had confidence Tsubokura was a good fit. The region needed hands-on clinicians, preferably young and adaptable, who could work well with the overwhelmed local physicians struggling to provide basic care. Even while he was a medical undergraduate student, Tsubokuraâs focus on patients had impressed Kami, one of his professors. Many medical scientists â treat patients as if they are material for research,â Kami says; but for Tsubokura, patients came first and research followed.ã
ãâMy goal was to help the local people, not as a researcher but as a local physician,âã
ãAt one meeting in Sendai in 2015, Hériard-Dubreuil recalls some audience members grilling Tsubokura, asking: âAre you on the side of the NGOs [nongovernmental organizations]? Are you on the side of the government?â He says Tsubokura answered, âIâm on the side of the people.âã
ãHe has become a mentor for younger doctors and researchers who share his social concerns. Ozaki is one example. He landed at Minamisoâma General a few years out of medical school. Working with Tsubokura allowed him to explore âthe role medical care plays in the bigger framework of society,â he says. Toyoaki Sawano, another surgeon, also moved to Minamisoâma General in part to study the bullying of schoolchildren who evacuated to other prefectures and the health issues facing the legions of workers who decontaminated Fukushimaâs landscape. âI donât think I would have been on this path through life without meeting professor Tsubokura,â Sawano says.ã
