00:13:10we're back with our exclusive interview with governor roberto correa sir given the serious economic
00:13:16crisis we're currently facing what can we expect for the future of guayana it's true there is
00:13:21inflation throughout the country and the strike at the general hospital however there's good news to
00:13:26be here thanks to the efforts of agribusiness owners
00:13:31so
00:13:49ready for breakfast your dad is waiting
00:13:56oh gosh look at this guy such a drama queen you're just like your dad when did you turn
00:14:08into him how much do you want to bet that he's going to start complaining about how we never
00:14:12visit and then he'll complain that we didn't bring a present you will i know him but you know
00:14:21as a matter of fact he did bring him a present what present
00:14:30a present you really have no idea oh you haven't guessed

00:17:52now as for my present i know exactly what's at the top of my list
00:17:57for both of you
00:18:01there's an opening for a professor position
00:18:03here at the university of goiana
00:18:05just down the street
00:18:06the pay is good
00:18:08and the cost of living here you know i mean
00:18:10it's so much lower
00:18:13you could maybe move into the neighborhood
00:18:16son with your education
00:18:18you could be a professor at that university tomorrow
00:18:22but if you have to keep hunting for a job
00:18:24dad i already told you
00:18:25i'm gonna take as many interviews as i have to
00:18:27to get a job in my field
00:18:28okay
00:18:29i'm not just trying to find a job
00:18:31i'm a nuclear physicist
00:18:32there's nothing for me here
00:18:40nothing except your family right
00:18:46no honey just let this go all right
00:18:47we're celebrating aren't we
00:18:49we came all the way here
00:18:50yeah you know
00:18:51let's just tell him
00:18:52no
00:18:53it'll put us all in a way better mood
00:18:55come on
00:18:55no
00:18:57no
00:19:02hello
00:19:02hey marcio
00:19:04it's ricardo how are you
00:19:05dr cabeza
00:19:08so what do we owe the honor doctor
00:19:10who is
00:19:12it's cabeza
00:19:12i grew up with him
00:19:13heard you were in town
00:19:14just for a few days
00:19:15listen i'm calling you because
00:19:17we've had a bunch of patients come in with the same symptoms
00:19:20dizzy spells and migraines
00:19:22some hair loss
00:19:23vomiting
00:19:24then i remembered
00:19:25you specialize in nuclear physics right
00:19:28mm-hmm
00:19:29so i was thinking about what could be causing these symptoms
00:19:32and i'm wondering if it's some kind of poison
00:19:35from a radioactive source
00:19:37no
00:19:39no it can't be because for the patients to have those symptoms
00:19:42it'd have to be acute poisoning
00:19:44they would have needed to be exposed to an enormous dose in a way
00:19:48right
00:19:49but i also got a call from the director of the health department
00:19:52about one of the patients who was transferred here
00:19:55and she's blaming it on
00:19:57some kind of capsule
00:19:58that she left over at the health department
00:20:00look since you're in town anyway
00:20:02would you mind popping over there for me
00:20:08now cabez i'm in town because it's my dad's birthday
00:20:10i'm sorry i can't
00:20:12the director can pick you up
00:20:13please
00:20:14i promise he'll be back home in an hour
00:20:18okay i'll do it just
00:20:20make sure he stops by nuclear frost to pick up the cintillometer
00:20:22and i have to be back in an hour
00:20:24no later
00:20:24sure
00:20:25what now
00:20:25you're not leaving
00:20:27i can explain
00:20:28what'd you say
00:20:28yeah we're good it's nothing
00:20:29okay then
00:20:30right talk soon bye
00:20:31right see ya
00:20:32bye
00:20:34sorry
00:20:43the worst part is she threw up on my shoe
00:20:46right
00:20:46did you see what was in the bag
00:20:48no way i didn't want to open it
00:20:51better safe than sorry right
00:20:55what's that noise
00:20:57it's a cintillometer
00:20:58it's totally normal
00:20:59okay
00:21:04hey that's
00:21:05that's really weird
00:21:06oh that's a shitty noise
00:21:08what's wrong with your machine
00:21:10damn thing must be broken
00:21:13what
00:21:13it's not working
00:21:14we're gonna need another one
00:21:16chicao
00:21:17let's go back to nuclear brass
00:21:19that way we're right there
00:21:20come on let's go
00:21:51fire department
00:21:51fire department
00:21:52fire department
00:21:52you sure you know how to use this thing it's not a Geiger counter it's a
00:21:56scintillometer way more sensitive it reacts to the slightest radiation the
00:22:00doctor has a PhD in nuclear physics from abroad he knows how to use one of these
00:22:05and I can tell you for sure that this one isn't working properly these be
00:22:08working fine for me do you have another one you can lend us just to be sure I
00:22:16do
00:22:19what is it I don't know whatever it is I don't want it please just take it
00:22:25away I don't know dump it in the river
00:22:41what's with the traffic I don't know it's weird though yeah for sure
00:22:58setback come back wait stop hold on put that back down right now Chris Chris no one was supposed to
00:23:05touch it
00:23:06I didn't touch it I called the firefighters it's going in the river no no no it's radioactive
00:23:10oh no really what it's incredibly dangerous we have to put it back right
00:23:14now I can't go back to the health department there's people contaminate
00:23:16somewhere else what about my road in the river and contaminate the rest of the
00:23:19city Janiel you ever heard of Chernobyl Chernobyl
00:23:22Jan you stop listen listen to me we've all got to a vacuum where things exceeded
00:23:27the capacity of the scintillometer everyone here you and me we've been
00:23:29exposed to it we have to get them out we can't risk not evacuating the building if
00:23:33we don't people are going to die Janiel okay you that bag has to go back into the alley right
00:23:40now you two let's go get to the other side of the street everyone leave
00:24:07you need to find out where this thing came from where it's been and who's picked it up because
00:24:11plenty more places are probably already contaminated we have to act back
00:24:14Mrs. Antonia that's the lady who brought the bag here she said her husband bought
00:24:18it off someone in the scrapyard she left the address of the place here yeah here we
00:24:24go listen Marcio you're the physicist you're the expert I don't know anything
00:24:29about this man nothing you have to come with me help me out can you help
00:24:53just here
00:25:07well this place is super contaminated too but we can't go in there can we we're already
00:25:15exposed yeah we shouldn't be around it anymore how dangerous is this for us right now be honest
00:25:24imagine this radioactivity like a like a bonfire okay how much you get burned by it depends on
00:25:31its distance how big it is and how much time you spend near it but with fire you can feel
00:25:36it
00:25:37you feel the burn yeah of course I understand but with radiation you don't feel a thing nothing
00:25:42even though it's incredibly dangerous you only feel the effects much later on but just like any bonfire
00:25:50the more that you can stay back the less exposure you have well the better I can't determine how much
00:25:57we've been exposed without knowing the source and how much it's giving off and we have no data yet
00:26:03but what I can tell you is that if there are people in there we have to get them out
00:26:08as soon as we can
00:26:12well let's get this over with come on
00:26:26hello
00:26:32hello
00:26:33hello
00:26:41hey how you doing yeah just a sec i'll be right with you
00:26:46morning morning yeah um we're looking to speak with uh mr evanildo he works down here right
00:26:51evanildo my man evanildo you're talking to him
00:26:53yeah uh mr evanildo we're from the health department your wife mrs antonia she brought something to us
00:27:00you know about this the item in question is incredibly dangerous it's emitting radiation
00:27:05and has already contaminated this place you're talking about here who are these guys evanildo
00:27:11hold on is that is that a gun who are you with you police a gun no no no it's
00:27:16not a gun not a
00:27:17weapon and we're not police we're trying to identify where exactly this object came from that's all
00:27:21the man's talking like a cop see you two think i'm done with one mr evanildo we're with the health
00:27:26department we're not with the police look if you don't have anything you want to sell the exits
00:27:29that way have a good one
00:27:33your wife's still in the hospital right other affected people are being treated there too
00:27:37this whole scrap yard is contaminated i swear we're looking at really really really high levels
00:27:42mr evanildo listen the two of us are here to help all of you need to get out of here
00:27:48right away
00:27:48a minute just wait no one is leaving here no you guys are trespassing on my property we're not
00:27:54and anyway you can't even be here without a warrant do you have a warrant no no no you have
00:27:58to help
00:27:58us we don't have time hey listen we're staying outside mr evanildo you can relax no one is going
00:28:03in and you don't have to leave now okay but we need to pinpoint where that thing came from and
00:28:07where
00:28:07it's been we need to follow its trail it hasn't been anywhere you satisfied now this is serious people
00:28:13could be killed look you pick this thing up somehow right are you calling me a thief i'm not calling
00:28:20you
00:28:20anything i'm honestly just trying to i just need this information then let's settle this
00:28:26shit man look the boys brought it in here and i bought it off them you saying that's a problem
00:28:31there's no problem okay just tell me where the boys are
00:28:38there's two guys who come around here sometimes carlos and lucio what are you doing what's the problem
00:28:43they didn't rob us what is it might be cops guys guys please do you happen to know where they
00:28:48might
00:28:49have picked it up i do that's great this used to be a radiotherapy clinic right yeah it was shut
00:28:59down
00:28:59three years ago
00:29:25the capsule is missing
00:29:30there's no radiation here no which obviously means they didn't open the capsule here
00:29:39i don't get it how the hell could they have left such dangerous equipment behind
00:29:47i've already got the press all over me because of what you did now you want to evacuate a whole
00:29:51neighborhood scrapyard in question is highly contaminated mr secretary sir we need to evacuate the
00:29:56entire area so we can analyze and decontaminate it i don't have the power to do that well then just
00:30:02call the governor sir what if it's nothing well you take responsibility if it turns out there's no
00:30:09danger listen sir i can promise you what we're dealing with is not nothing mr secretary please
00:30:13the readings outside the yard are already far above normal
00:30:24a nuclear bomb no no we don't have any in brazil but what if the u.s decides to attack
00:30:30us
00:30:31yeah or the soviets no look those at the forefront of nuclear energy research did not do it for war
00:30:39yeah but chernobyl blew up right the chernobyl disaster was an accident it was not a bomb
00:30:45could the anger power plant explode in a similar way no no no no
00:30:51things are under control there i assure you all right wow i thought working with nuclear physics would
00:30:56be more exciting but it is yes it's quite a thrill and there's never a dull moment you know seriously
00:31:04national nuclear energy commission right let's see what you've learned what an accident in goyania
00:31:11slow down please i'm having trouble following
00:31:16just one moment please mine too uh rita would you pass me the um of course yeah here we are
00:31:24here
00:31:24go ahead thank you okay now can you repeat the name of the clinic for me one more time please
00:31:33the goya's radiotherapy institute uh-huh
00:31:36wow looks like it was closed three years ago there was indeed a cobalt machine there but i
00:31:42record say it was removed from the site you sure doctor because i was just there and i saw an
00:31:47abandoned shell what what that would mean what what yes there was another machine at the clinic
00:31:56and i don't see anything confirming it was removed the records i can't say for certain it never left
00:32:01the site did it also use cobalt no it was cesium-137
00:32:09one of the chernobyl isotopes yes that's right it's all that are powdered looks like it was one
00:32:14of those obsolete ones powders
00:32:19uh there's no record of its status how's that possible
00:32:25find cesar for me immediately i need to talk to him right now cesar is at the vienna congress
00:32:30i'll try to get in touch hello marcio the cesium in question is housed inside a steel and lead capsule
00:32:38the canister is heavy extremely heavy nobody would be able to move it from the site without proper
00:32:43equipment it's impossible it's possible sir i can assure you
00:32:55all right everyone i'd like you all to meet our new intern
00:33:01just kidding esther's actually worked here for many years because if you don't know she revolutionized
00:33:07the whole institute trust me when i say this woman is the foremost authority on dissymmetry in brazil
00:33:14so much so that sao paulo nabbed her a few years ago but i fought to bring her back here
00:33:21esther welcome back thank you the floor is yours if you'd like to make a speech i guess oh my
00:33:27goodness
00:33:29for those of you who don't know me despite any outward appearances
00:33:34i'm truly hoping that you come to see me as a partner and perhaps even a friend
00:33:38because i believe that science is a collaborative activity
00:33:42and hopefully during this time together we'll all learn as a team thank you
00:33:48let's get back to work yeah thank you well done
00:33:52excuse me dr orenstein's called to ask for a list of specialized equipment
00:33:57really what for apparently there's been an incident in goyania
00:34:05governor believe me when i say there's enough radiation out there to be serious
00:34:08the scintillometer was overloaded and while it's sensitive it's less precise we might be dealing
00:34:13with an enormous dose we can't be certain can't be certain what do you mean imagine a meat scale
00:34:19you'd find in a butcher shop it can measure up to 20 pounds right but if you step on the
00:34:22thing it can't
00:34:23handle it it'll break we couldn't tell if you weigh 20 or 200 pounds the scintillometer works
00:34:29based on the exact same principle sir what i do know is that these people are being exposed to
00:34:34radiation non-stop what i don't know is the quantity so we have to do it this way evacuate
00:34:39and then immediately isolate anyone who's contaminated contaminated can i borrow your pen
00:34:48sure so governor imagine this is the source and the ink inside is the radioactive material as you
00:34:56approach the source you become irradiated but if you move away from the source you cease being irradiated
00:35:04and it won't spread to anybody else you you could have lunch with the secretary no problem but if the
00:35:10source is opened i understand if the ink the material inside gets out and falls on me i'll start spreading
00:35:16it further exactly sir but this isn't like ink it's powder it's powdered cesium which is even more
00:35:23fine than a single grain of sugar but still very highly radioactive if it somehow ends up on someone's
00:35:29skin or their clothing if they ingest or breathe it in they're contaminated and they become a source
00:35:33themselves sir we have to take the scrapyard crew to a hospital right away yeah and there's the team at
00:35:42the health department who we're exposed to yeah all of them no no no wait hang on we can't take
00:35:46them to
00:35:47the hospital if they're around more people that's more potential contamination vectors we could face
00:35:51maybe we should isolate them all somewhere safe we have to is there somewhere set up for this kind
00:35:58of emergency uh there's a stadium potentially
00:36:05janiel you i need you to take the necessary steps to prepare the stadium for these people of course
00:36:10governor and you susa i want you to arrange for their transport there right i'll do that sir but
00:36:17he's the specialist here marcio i'll need you to assist me in coordinating all of this
00:36:23uh no you want dr orenstein he's cnen he's coming from ria he can help you're not cnen me
00:36:31oh no no no i'm just here for my father's birthday
00:36:37marcio you know we never visit him and you disappear on his birthday to do a favor for some
00:36:42guys some old neighbor you haven't spoken to in ages seriously honey it's bigger than that the
00:36:47governor's asked me to help i can't just refuse you know the governor yeah orders straight from the
00:36:52governor yeah is he okay everything's okay mr z yes he'll be a little late all right our transport's
00:36:58here let's just be a second your father's home just came in with fresh bread the cake's on the table
00:37:04baby i'm really sorry i have to go i'm sorry love you
00:37:32i have a new door look at my hand
00:37:37the burns in the same place where i touched that powder you had here everyone who's touched
00:37:42that thing is feeling sick now antonia the boys they're in the hospital
00:37:45and you want to sit here and pretend it's something else making us sick
00:37:50joe too he was throwing up yesterday and celeste's been sick ever since that thing came into our house
00:37:58all they can keep down are potatoes joe claudine and celeste all three i get it okay i've got some
00:38:03kind
00:38:03of allergic reaction too but that thing is gone now it's all over no need to worry end of story
00:38:08it can't hurt us anymore to nina is going to be showing up soon all right her and the kids
00:38:13will get
00:38:14better and we'll all go back to normal now what i'm actually worried about is those two guys i didn't
00:38:19like the way they were talking to us trying to scare us away from the scrapyard can you believe that
00:38:24bullshit but if that thing is giving off radiation like those guys said we could end up like chernobyl
00:38:29wow ramundo look around all right you see a nuclear power plant i'm just saying joe
00:38:38keep quiet everyone you're not gonna see who it is go on answer
00:38:46darling i told you to stay quiet
00:38:57you still think they came because they want to help us good evening
00:39:01i remember since susa the state secretary of health since when does the military police deal
00:39:06with health stuff we need to evacuate this house right away all of you have been contaminated with
00:39:13cesium-137 i thought you told me that you weren't with the police man i'm not a cop no i
00:39:20swear i was
00:39:20telling the truth but look my name is marcio and i'm a nuclear physicist and he really is the secretary
00:39:26of health your house is highly contaminated you have to believe us first it was my scrapyard and now
00:39:33you're saying my house so what's next huh what listen to me every minute you remain in this house the
00:39:39risk to your health increases and the danger gets worse that capsule you picked up had powder in it
00:39:44right that powder is radioactive it sticks to your clothes and your skin and your hair and if you don't
00:39:50get
00:39:50treatment soon it can kill you this device is called a scintillometer what it does is measure radiation
00:39:59levels do you hear this sound that confirms that your house is contaminated we're telling the truth
00:40:05i need you to trust me where do you plan to take us if we go with you somewhere safe
00:40:13away from the
00:40:13contamination to the hospital where antonio is no no first to a screening center then anyone who needs
00:40:18medical care will go to the hospital a screening center with the cops outside my door what's all
00:40:23this huh you're saying we're criminals i'm not leaving my house look i'm sorry to put it this way but
00:40:28you don't have a choice all of you have to come with us or you will contaminate others no you
00:40:32can't force
00:40:33me to leave my own house
00:40:53come to mommy's
00:41:04claudina you too

00:43:32I'm not allowed to go.
00:43:34Would you all come this way?
00:43:39Just that way across the field.
00:43:40Most of the firefighters will take you to the show.
00:43:45I'm not allowed to go.
00:44:00I'm not allowed to go.

00:44:15I'm not allowed to go.
00:44:15Mr. Z, is it time for the birthday cake?
00:44:18What about Marcio?
00:44:20Oh, Marcio can't make it back just yet.
00:44:22But you must be so tired.
00:44:23We'll save him a piece of the cake for later.
00:44:25No, no, no. I want to wait for him.
00:44:28Wait, wait, wait. What's that?
00:44:29Whoa, whoa. Turn it up, Antonio.
00:44:35There's been a radioactive contamination incident in Goyangu.
00:44:38Radioactive?
00:44:40Members of a family have been evacuated from their home by military...
00:44:44It's Marcio. It's Marcio.
00:44:47We'll bring you the latest information as it becomes available.
00:45:03Good evening, sir.
00:45:18Good evening, sir.
00:45:20Good evening, sir.
00:45:33would you explain to me how this whole thing could have happened that's something that won't
00:45:37take time to find out right now we need to act quickly and decisively to prevent a tragedy
00:45:43are you marcio no doctor i'm emerson souza the secretary of health it's good to meet you
00:45:48marcio is this young man here good evening i'm marcio doctor we spoke on the phone
00:45:53i've read all your articles i'm truly honored to meet you i wasn't expecting you to make me feel
00:45:58so old marcio what criteria have you used to determine which house to isolate well there
00:46:04was no established protocol i used the maximum allowable radiation as a guide so 0.1 millirems
00:46:09inside the houses and 0.5 outside i only had a centilometer so i couldn't accurately measure
00:46:14the degree of radiation look the kid said he knew what he was doing no no he does
00:46:20he does i would have done the very same thing in his position now we have two tasks that will
00:46:27be
00:46:27very important to carry out we need to prevent the spread of more cesium and isolate the victims
00:46:32the priority was getting them out of the contaminated site now that's done we have to screen all of them
00:46:37thoroughly we must identify the contaminated and determine who needs medical care then we bring
00:46:42those patients to an isolated hospital ward as soon as possible many are already at the hospital
00:46:47for tropical diseases have they been isolated completely isolated secretary it's imperative
00:46:53they be completely isolated marcio i need to see the cesium source to better understand the extent of
00:47:01the problem it's at the health department wait wait hasn't the boy already taken the measurements
00:47:04didn't you say he was right about it all this guy got counter governor mine is far more precise
00:47:09it can measure high doses with much greater accuracy it's like his is a pharmacy scale and mine is a
00:47:14butcher's all right all right i think i get the picture shall we head up yes yes let's go hey
00:47:20come
00:47:20come here go ahead i'll catch up with you
00:47:51BIRDS CHIRP
00:48:24The guy your counter maxed out over there. This is very bad.
00:48:29We've got to move it now.
00:48:31That's impossible. Handling the source directly is out of the question. We can't even get close. And where would you
00:48:38take it? You can't dump it.
00:48:39Yes, I'm well aware of that, but we can't just leave a bomb in the middle of the city. We
00:48:43have to remove it tonight.
00:48:46It's usually secured inside a lid capsule to contain the radiation.
00:48:50Isn't it? Well, we can't melt lead out here, can we?
00:48:57I'm going to need a tube, a big one made of concrete. Like the ones that are used for sewage.
00:49:01With a very big opening to fit over the chair. And a concrete mixing truck.
00:49:07It's so that the radiation can be contained with concrete. So if we cover the back with the concrete tube
00:49:13and then pour more concrete over top of it, it'll keep both the powder and the radiation more contained. And
00:49:18it'll be so heavy, it'll be impossible for anyone to move it.
00:49:21The concrete alone is not enough to contain all the radiation. This building, the health department, is going to have
00:49:26to remain closed. But where we are, the perimeter around it would be safe for now. It's the only way
00:49:32this gets resolved before morning, Governor.
00:49:35This can't be in place forever. You'll have to move it eventually.
00:49:39Governor, I promise you, I won't leave Guayana. Until I've handed the city back to you, safe and settled.
00:49:53Marcio, come here. I'm sorry, but you've been exposed enough today that I'll have to check you.
00:49:59I know, of course. Please just let me tell you something. I talked to one of the victims. The cesium
00:50:06was handled by more people than the ones in isolation.
00:50:09It's been spread out and shared with friends and neighbors. It's worse than we feared.
00:50:17We're going to need a lot more boots on the ground for this fight. We'll have to undergo an exhaustive
00:50:23contact tracing effort. It's the only way.
00:50:26Hold on your arms, please. If you're not contaminated, that's a relief.
00:50:36Your shoes. Take them off now, quickly.
00:50:41Put them in here. Be careful.
00:50:47Right, careful now.
00:50:50Here's what you do. You take that bag and throw it over the health department's wall. It's shut down anyway.
00:50:56Go.
00:51:07All right, Marcio. That's plenty for today.
00:51:11Head back home, take a shower, eat something.
00:51:14But don't go anywhere.
00:51:16I'm going to need you tomorrow.
00:51:17I'm going to need you tomorrow.
00:51:21And thank you for today.
00:51:24I'll be here.
00:51:25I'll be here.
00:51:39I'm going to need you tomorrow.
00:51:39I'm going to need you tomorrow.
00:51:44I'll be here.
00:52:00Oh, sure, but it's my house.
00:52:01I can wash a few dishes.
00:52:02No, it's okay, Mr. Z.
00:52:03Why don't you lie down?
00:52:04I need you to do all the dishes.
00:52:05I'll be fine, Mr.
00:52:06Is that Marcio?
00:52:11Son, what are you...
00:52:12Dad, listen.
00:52:13I don't understand.
00:52:13What happened?
00:52:14But I'm fine.
00:52:15I'm sorry, Mr. Party.
00:52:16Hey, why are you thinking?
00:52:17What happened?
00:52:18Look, I'm fine.
00:52:19I'm completely fine, but I need you both to listen.
00:52:21Just hang on, okay?
00:52:22I'll tell you.
00:52:22You need to tell us the truth.
00:52:23Why are you in your underwear in the living room?
00:52:25Where were you?
00:52:26We need to know, Marcio.
00:52:28It's not going to be just the two of us anymore.
00:52:30You'll be a dad soon.
00:52:31You need to think...
00:52:33Sorry, Dad.
00:52:34It's just...
00:52:35I promised we were going to tell you, but things...
00:52:37How long have you known?
00:52:37You were going to be parents.
00:52:38I had no idea.
00:52:39You're going to be a father.
00:52:41Congratulations.
00:52:42I'm okay.
00:52:43Stop, Dad.
00:52:43Dad, I'm fine.
00:52:44I need you both to trust me that everything's fine, okay?
00:52:46I'm great.
00:52:46I just really needed a shower, and I'm going to go do that right now.
00:52:50A grandchild?
00:52:52I'm so sorry, Mr. Z.
00:52:54I didn't want it to be like this.
00:52:55I don't want it to be like this.
00:53:15I don't want it to be like this.
00:53:21I don't want it to be like this.
00:53:21With stones, with stones, with stones in the front
00:53:28For my life, for my love to pass
00:53:35In this village, in this village
00:53:41What's called, what's called?
00:54:05hello hi benny it's cesar how are things down there has the source been isolated no but they're
00:54:11doing it right now listen cesar if we don't get a team down here we're done technicians doctors
00:54:18physicists equipment too i'll send a list yeah that's fine and we have to notify everyone
00:54:23all of them argentina oak ribs the iaea everyone you'll have access to all of cnn's resources
00:54:32but listen we need to fix this have you mapped out the hot spots we've gone ahead and isolated
00:54:38what we've mapped out so far but this source was open for more than two weeks
00:54:54cesar we know it's already spread
00:54:58but if the cesium spreads even further through the city
00:55:04through the streets or via water
00:55:08all right i'll have my flight to brazil rescheduled as soon as i can
00:55:11if we don't act as quickly as possible we're going to be facing a disaster brazil's never seen before
00:55:21so
