When in the zone most people tend to have a dosimeter with them at all times and the background radiation is a little higher than usual but nothing serious as long as exposure is not for long periods hence the good folk of Chernobyl are only allowed to stay for 15 days then have to be elsewhere for 15 days thus limiting exposure. There are hot spots and some very very hot spots but as long as you take notice of the dosimeters you should be ok. A few days in the zone will give less exposure than the flight over as long as you are sensible.</blockquote>
