Switzerland Mails Iodine Tablets to 5 Million Residents in Case of Nuclear Disaster: Take 'at Request of Authorities'
By Jack Davis October 29, 2023 at 10:07am Iodine tablets are in the mail to millions of Swiss citizens as part of the country’s preparation for a disaster at one of its nuclear power plants.
In 2014, about 4.6 million potassium iodide tablets were sent out, according to Swiss Info. With a 10-year life span, those are now expiring.
Everyone living within 50 kilometers of one of the country’s three nuclear power plants will get their iodine tablets in the mail. That totals about 4 million people, according to the website jodtabletten.
The total is down from 2014 because one nuclear power plant in Mühleberg has been shut down.

And how does anybody know what's really in ALL of those tablets??
You vill not ask zese questions.
How can potassium iodide expire? It's a salt. Does the carrier acquire the inability to dissolve in the gut?
What if the salt loses its saltiness?
I dont think this has anything to do with those tractors. Has to do more with ramping up the fear propaganda re: nuclear war
I lived in Switzerland during the Cold War and trough the Chernobyl desaster... no Iodine Tablets back then... Looks like fear porn to me.
Prepping us for the "Scare event"?
after reading the original post in german, nah... its just a precaution for the ppl living near Atomic plants. Not for all citizens
Thanks, we have all kinds of talent on GAW.
It's probably Cyanide.
So…. If there is nuclear fallout… iodine is supposed to somehow save you from a horrible ration death? I am not familiar with that treatment.
It blocks absorption into the thyroid of ONE TYPE of radiation.
So your thyroid will be fine as the rest of you dies from other tumors
Thank you… yeah, gotta have that thyroid functioning while you slowly fall apart!
Think how much worse it could have been 🤣
Is it really iodine? I don't think so.
