# No Fuel

Because the government did not ease the regulation on the stocks of fossil fuels, there is a severe lack of fuel in all of Tokyo and the Tohoku area. Because there is no fueling point in the area, neither civilian nor military logistical support can go up there. The effects are:

1. There is no fuel for heating.

2. Food and medicine are not arriving at the refugee centers…

5. Due to the lack of fuel, elderly people are dying of cold, stress, malnutrition, and lack of medicine. Twenty-four of them have died so far…

# People Around the Nuclear Facilities

Within a 30-kilometer radius around the plants, the government has instructed the refugees to stay sealed indoors. However, the government is not sending in food and fuel to these households and these refugee centers. As food and/or fuel run out, the refugees are walking away from their houses and being exposed to radiation. One government official made a hysterical statement accusing private companies of not going into the 30-kilometer area voluntarily.
