The damageto railroad tracks, and roads was comparatively small, however. Theelectric power transmission and distribution systems were badlywrecked. The telephone system was approximately 80% damaged, and noservice was restored until 15 August. Despite the customary Japanese lack of attention to sanitationmeasures, no major epidemic broke out in the bombed cities. Althoughthe conditions following the bombings makes this fact seem surprising, the experience of other bombed cities in both Germany... and Japan showHiroshima and Nagasaki not to be isolated cases. The atomic explosion over Nagasaki affected an over-all area ofapproximately 42. 9 square miles of which about 8. 5 square miles werewater and only about 9. 8 square miles were built up, the remainderbeing partially settled. Approximately 36% of the built up areas wereseriously damaged. The area most severely damaged had an averageradius of about 1 mile, and covered about 2. 9 square miles of which 2. 4were built up. In Nagasaki, buildings with structural steel frames, principally theMitsubishi Plant as far as 6, 000 feet from X were severely damaged;these buildings were typical of wartime mill construction in Americaand Great Britain, except that some of the frames were somewhat lesssubstantial.
