Where did the survivors of the atom bomb in japan go to?
I think that there was not a single survivor of atom bomb in Japan except a young Japanese girl and all the victims of atomic bomb had died. ____________ An estimated 80,000 in Hiroshima and 40,000 in Nagasaki died instantly in the attacks. Within 2 month of the dropping of the a-bombs in Nagasaki and Hiroshima 90,000-166,000 people in Hiroshima and 60,000-80,000 in Nagasaki died. Their injuries were horrific and died of everything from severe burns, infections, radiation poisoning among other causes. There were many survivors, but they faced long term health problems and discrimination as a result of the nuclear contamination. The survivors were called hibakusha or "explosion affected people". The children of the hibakusha have shown problems related to their parents' exposure. As of 2009, 235,569 survivors were still alive. Most remained in Japan. Some of the Hibakusha were Korean forced labour. After the war, they returned to their homes in Korea. Some migrated from Japan and settled in other countries like the US and Canada.

How does an atomic bomb affect the world psychologically?
According to the Hippocratic Oath, every physician pledges to serve his or her neighbor and save what life could be saved. For physicians and medical workers all over the world, the struggle for a world free of nuclear weapons is natural and logical. The World Health Organization wrote in a 1983 report that "nuclear weapons constitute the greatest immediate threat to the health and survival of mankind". A nuclear explosion can cause damage to human beings in a number of ways - immediately and in the longer term. Nuclear weapons harm both living humans and fetuses in their mothers' wombs. A nuclear explosion targeted on a city will damage hospitals and kill and injures medical staff, making it difficult to provide help for survivors. In Hiroshima, 140,000 people were killed by the atomic bomb. The total number of inhabitants of Hiroshima at the time is estimated at 350,000, which means about 40 percent of the inhabitants were killed. In Nagasaki, the atomic bomb killed more than 70,000 and injured many more.
