Zero, zilch nada, goose egg. In fact I can't think of a single prediction about the harm caused by a large scale radiation release that was made in the last 70 years that didn't turn out to be ridiculously pessimistic. And besides, Chernobyl happened 29 years ago so we don't need half assed predictions about what the long term results will be, we know.
