Roentgens/hr Recommended Limits of Activity Outside the Fallout Shelter
Over 100
Outdoor activity of more than a few minutes may result in sickness or death.
Go outside only to escape fire or to get to better shelter if it is only a few minutes away.
10 - 100
Limit time outside to a few minutes and only for emergencies that can't be postponed a day.
2 - 10
Less than an hour per day outside for the most essential purposes should be OK.
Shelter occupants should rotate outdoor tasks to minimize total doses.
0.5 - 2
A few hours per day outside are tolerable. Eat and sleep in shelter.
under 0.5
No special precautions. Sleep in shelter.

Radiation exposure is cumulative. Anything over .5R/he is going to cause radiation sickness or death. If these people are living in these areas with radiation levels that high they would almost certainly already be hospitalized if not dead.

If you think there is some conspiracy about the calibration of modern meters then the fix is pretty simple really - recalibrate it with a known source.

It's pretty much impossible to tell the meter to "ignore" a certain amount of radiation.
