Is Northern China suffering from an allergy or radiation sickness?

Beijing recently stirred up a national publicity campaign against Japan over the release of treated Fukushima nuclear plant water. However, the Chinese are concerned with the risk of being exposed to radiation from the inland. An unexplained sudden increase in asthma has taken northern China by storm. Beijing called it “thunderstorm asthma.” Some sources say it’s a radiation sickness caused by radioactive materials released from a coal mine in Inner Mongolia. The Chinese military is said to have been deployed. The worst nightmare is the radioactive dust has already spread to a good part of China.
