While some material would certainly reach here if there was a meltdown, think of how devastated Moscow was by Chernobyl.
Actually, the Cherynobyl think might not have been too bad. The sum up from the radio article is that yes, the wildlife reads as radioactive, but without a geiger counter you can't distinguish them from an uncontaminated specimen, and of all the affected women who did not voluntarily abort their pregnancies, the birth defect rate was the same as in the unaffected population.
