The immediate death toll from the Chernobyl disaster in 1986 was 31 people, primarily due to acute radiation sickness. However, long-term estimates of deaths attributed to radiation exposure vary widely, with the World Health Organization estimating up to 4,000 additional deaths among the higher-exposed groups, while other assessments suggest figures could be much higher. Overall, the full impact on mortality remains difficult to determine due to various factors, including the long latency period of radiation-related illnesses.
