Depending on radiation level this may be actually healthy:

The cancer mortality ratios (CMRs) in Poland in high and low level radiation areas were analyzed based on information from national cancer registry. Presented ecological study concerned six regions, extending from the largest administration areas (a group of voivodeships), to the smallest regions (single counties). The data show that the relative risk of cancer deaths is lower in the higher radiation level areas. The decrease by 1.17%/mSv/year (p = 0.02) of all cancer deaths and by 0.82%/mSv/year (p = 0.2) of lung cancers only are observed.

I know, there's a smiliar experiment in states. But you're providing wrong data, from wrong years and for insiginificant amounts of radiation, nothing compare to fallout from atomic accident.

The original statistical data for each set from 1 to 6 (GUS 2011; RAP 2005; AGP 1995; MRP 1995);

the accident was in 1986. and you wont find any data on it because russians who in reality ruled poland then didnt care.

Is there a claim in my post you're trying to refute? I didn't see any.

Your original post was inaccurate at least in this point:

> We all had to take iodine pills for long time.

Now lets make a claim - living in high background radiation city in Poland is much worse than Chernobyl exposure even if we look at 1 year period.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16575762/

In Poland the mean effective equivalent dose resulting from Chernobyl accident was 932 microSv and is close to the limited dose permitted in Poland, equalling 1 mSv/year.

So according to original article I cited (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3526327/) living in Jelenia Góra (4.75mSv/year) with high background radiation is ~3 Chernobyl doses per year every year vs living in Świnoujście (1.06mSv/year).
