Masks would not have helped, the entire area of the plant was highly contaminated with strong gamma, beta, and neutron emitters. These are hard to shield against. Most of the firefighters had already received lethal doses by the time they finished setting up to fight the fire, so they just kept working because it had to be done until they were almost ready to collapse. At that point they were taken to a hospital to see their families and die as comfortably as they could in the condition they were in. Most of these firefighters received near record doses, several thousand REMs.

What were the effects of the chernobyl nuclear disaster?
To put it simply radioactive fallout. You can't inhabit the area any more. There is no drinkable water left. It killed many people and many more were disfigured and have contracted cancer and other related diseases, even now Clarification, there was no nuclear explosion at Chernobyl. The explosion that blew the roof off the reactor building was a steam explosion. Also all the fallout distributed was carried by the smoke of a graphite fire, started when the steam explosion exposed the reactor's hot graphite moderator to air (sudden release of Wigner Energy in the graphite probably also helped ignite it).
