Exposure to radiation is one of the potential dangers from an accident at a nuclear power plant. This can lead to various health problems, including radiation sickness, cancer, and genetic mutations. The extent of the danger depends on the severity of the accident, the release of radioactive materials into the environment, and the proximity of human populations to the plant.
