Only four people were actually killed during the blast but the radiation spread so far that it caused many mutations and cancer. But four people died immediately and they were all scientists.

The vast majority of deaths resulting from the disaster were to emergency responders who arrived after the problems were identified, and people living in the area of the plant. The number of them are in dispute.
