They did. No-one has died. It is most unlikely anyone will die as a result
of the incident at Fukushima. That's an astonishing endorsement of the
design and operation of the plant.

Apart from a couple of workers who reportedly died as a result of an
accident while working on making the plant safe. The accident had
*nothing* to do with radiation, and similar accidents could have
happened in any power station under fault conditions.
