Snapshots: the world in 24 hours, March 22
A woman, who evacuated from Minamisoma in Fukushima, undergoes a screening test for signs of nuclear radiation by a doctor at a health center in Yonezawa, northern Japan, 98 km (61 miles) from the Fukushima nuclear plant, March 22, 2011. Her house is almost 25km from the plant and she didn't show harmful levels of radiation. The world's worst nuclear crisis in 25 years was triggered by a huge earthquake and tsunami on March 11 that left at least 21,000 people dead or missing. [Photo/Agencies]
