This image captures a vertical exhibition display from a museum, likely concerning the Chernobyl disaster's medical response, set against a dark background. The prominent title reads "МЕДИЧНА ДОПОМОГА Medical Aid" in large white lettering. The display provides detailed information in both Ukrainian and English regarding the immediate medical efforts following the accident. Text panels describe how, in the first days, 450 mobile medical units were formed and deployed, staffed by 5,960 medical and technical specialists, including 1,240 doctors, 920 nurses, 360 paramedics, and 2,720 technical personnel. These teams conducted radiological screenings for 135,000 adults and 100,000 children. Over 100,000 radiometric thyroid screenings and blood analyses were performed, and nearly a thousand human radiation spectrum measurements were taken. A central glass display case features medical equipment, including what appears to be a syringe, a device with metal fins (possibly a dosimeter or radiation detection component), and connecting cables. A small framed photograph of Viktor Klymenko is also visible within the case. Below the display case, two black and white photographs illustrate the medical aid provided. One image shows healthcare professionals in white uniforms tending to a patient on a bed, with other medical staff in the background. The second photo depicts a medical professional examining a prone patient, potentially using specialized equipment. Key numbers are highlighted: "235 000" refers to the total people examined by mobile teams, including "100 000" children. "5 960" indicates medical and technical specialists who joined mobile emergency teams. "ПОНАД 100 000 / OVER 100 000" denotes radiometric thyroid screenings conducted in the first days. The overall scene conveys the scale and immediate impact of the medical intervention during the Chernobyl catastrophe.
