Abstract: | An assessment is submitted of morbidity rates and physical development of children aged under 14, residing in the territories being monitored after the Chernobyl Power Plant accident. A high level of disharmony in physical development of the children examined was recordable, as was an excess in morbidity of both general and separate classes of disease entities among the pediatric population having been victims of the Chernobyl accident, as compared to that in relatively "clean" areas and in Ukraine as a whole. |
