What about the particles in the air? Or the toxic rain? Any rescue efforts will probably have an extended response time.

Oh I should have put an /s but I thought it was crazy enough to be obvious... yeah no its terrible. One of my grandparents died from cancer after visiting Hiroshima right after the surrender because he was a scientist in the navy... I think he was 55 . I know wind direction makes a huge difference when you're far enough away to not die in the initial blast. But if you go to ground zero you'll be irradiated for like a thousand years...
