Even in ideal circumstances with good healthcare and a healthy lifestile. The same with that old woman of 82 and her cow, a lot those old people either returned later or never left from the exclusion zone in the first place. Most of them where dead 10-20 years later. And that is how the west propagate lies, organisation like Greenpeace almost in a joyous voicing: See radiation is dangerous, al those people did not survive. No dipshits at the age of 80 or over your survival rate is not that stellar to begin with, especially not in the former Warsawpact and Sovjet Union where life expectancy was already lower than in the west.

When Scherbina picks up the caterpillar and says “oh it’s beautiful” you can hear the sorrow in his voice and see it in the empty look on his face right after. He realizes he’s been a party-man his entire adult life and life has just flown by him. He took himself too seriously and sucked up to people who didn’t give a shit about him for most of his life. The only reason he is able to slow down and enjoy life and be human is because he knows he is dead soon. Really deep touch added in that scene there and very tragic. Amazing series HBO. 10/10

I don't think that there was much character development. He was a good guy since the beginning. As it's said here, he believed that everything is okay as he was out incharge. Conflict with legasove was due to the contradictions between the scientist s account from the ground and legasov reading a paper and becoming hysterical. He tried to learn about nuclear reactors and acknowledged his ignorance. He rescued legasove on how does RBMK reactors explode with why did I see graphite on the roof even though he didn't believe that he saw graphite. He didn't evacuated the place because he was ignorant about the health implications and when legasov told him that we'll die in 5 years, he got serious. He was good human with little flaws which is due to the system he grew in(crook scients like formin) and his ignot of nuclear physics and medicine which is understbale.

Died in 2005 of Chernobyl-related cancer. Vasiliy Ignatenko - died May 13, 1986. In 2006 posthumously awarded the title Hero of Ukraine. Nikolay Vaschuk - was instrumental in preventing fire from reaching reactor number 3. Died with the rest of his crew on the same day. Hero of Ukraine. Nikolay Titenok - died May 16, 1986. Hero of Ukraine Leonid Shavrey - miraculous recovery in the facility in Kyiv. Had bone marrow partially replaced which help the organism and DNA to fight off radiation exposure and sickness. Ivan Shavrey - the younger brother of Leonid. Also survived by miraculous treatment in Kyiv. Again, partial replacement of bone marrow. Petro Shavrey - the oldest brother. Also survived. There should be a book about this family of heroes or maybe a separate HBO movie. Alexander Lelechenko - electrician technician of Chernobyl NPP. Was responsible for preventing an additional hydrоgen explosion. Received lethal dose of radiation and died on May 7, 1986. Hero of Ukraine.

Boris Shcherbina died in 1990 at age 70. A very close friend of his says that it was due to high levels of radiation, but in a 1988 decree, doctors were told to not list "radiation" as a cause of death or injury so what led to his death is still unknown. He was given the award "Hero of Socialist Labor" and also helped with the recovery of missing and dead people in the 1988 Armenian Earthquake. He encouraged outside influence and help during the 2 disasters he was in charge of handling: 1986 Chernobyl Disaster and the 1988 Armenian Earthquake. Boris's knowledge on concrete when he is told that graphite was burnt concrete, was due to the fact that he was Minister of Constructions for Oil & Gas Industries. So yes indeed, Boris knows concrete. During the time this series takes place Boris is Deputy Chairman of the USSR Council of Ministers. A very high position in the Party and often held meetings with other top ranking Ministers. Boris was never a skeptic of Valery Legasov. He was simply ill informed and had little to no knowledge of how nuclear energy is harnessed and created. Boris Shcherbina is well respected and honored still to this day in Russia and Armenia.

Valery : There are other scientists like me. Any one of them could have done what I did. But you, everything we asked for, everything we needed. Men, material..., lunar rovers. Who else could have done these things? They heard me, but they listened to you. Of all the ministers, and all the deputies, an entire congregation of obedient fools they mistakenly sent the one good man. For god's sake, Boris, you were the one who mattered most. This exchange killed me. The writing is so good, so, so, so good!

Funny when you think about the fact that it's from the guy who wrote the scary movie scripts^^ And now he's doing The Last of Us for HBO. God I wish everything in the world was a great as TV has been for these past 5-10 years.

The moment when Boris reveals his sickness is heartbreaking. He did matter most. Good people will always reveal themselves when things are worse. I'd to think that if I was in his shoes knowing that I'm on borrowed time, I would take pride in the fact that I did what could and that I made a difference. If the cost of my life means others can be saved, then that is a fair trade.

I really enjoy watching this friendship develop throughout the movie,Boris starts out wanting to throw him out of the helicopter and ends up hugging Legasov when he smiles for the first time at the success of the lunar lander clearing the roof Respect is earned,and his admiration for the scientist becomes obvious A Hero's legacy

I love this scene so much.. They started as a love hate relationship but eventually became best buddies. Anyone notice how Boris calls Valery as Valera, In Russia you really don't call anypne like that unless he's your real real good or old friend/relative, like a sibling. This scene is the best goddamn thing I've ever seen in my life, hands down.

Dibs to Stellan Skarsgard. Amazing actor!! He portrayed Boris Shcherbina as he wás the man in reality! The character-change of going from a convinced partyman, to a real crisis-manager who saw the severeness of the situation. How Legasov pats him on the back for doing all he could here, is an understatement to the integrity of Shcherbina. He did the right thing! Even that Gorbachov had to assign him to investigate the location with Legasov personally, he had his doubt still, but General Pikalov gave him the truthful picture with the 15.000 Roentgen. Legasov explained the meaning of it, and Shcherbina knew there and then, Legasov was right, perhaps even 'wrong' in understanding the real size of this: Legasov warned them all! But not even hé could fathom how terribly wring, things were going. Not untill the immensely brave General Pikalov rode in with a high-quality decimeter, and told them the number. The explosion of anger after the german robot nearly instantly fell out due to the massive radiation, made him realise how terrifying this disaster was. Hw he vented that, over that phone, and smashed the shit out of it, pure out of anger that there was still a political interest at play isntead of realisation of the horrible truth. Class-Acting! He deserved that Golden Globe!

"Of all the ministers and all the deputies... entire congregation of obedient fools... they mistakenly sent the one good man.... For gods sake Boris... You were the one who mattered most" And now imagine they hadn't sent Boris Shcherbina but some other apparatshik raised by the school of "we'll just sit it out".
