Nature Energy And Society
The nuclear fission chain reaction inside a working reactor is completely different. This is spread within the nuclear fuel only by neutrons – but these cannot escape the reactor and are instantly absorbed by absolutely anything else except the fuel. So nuclear power is failsafe, which fire and fossilfuels are certainly not.

Fire is dangerous. That is primarily because it catches and spreads. It is contagious and multiplies like an infection. But radioactivity and the radiation it emits does not multiply like that at all! That is one reason why it is almost harmless. However it is more than their job is worth for those in charge of #radiationprotection to say that.
