Meanwhile, the price of pills that can help protect people from radiation poisoning has nearly tripled following Russia's attack on Ukraine and amid fears the conflict could lead to a nuclear incident.
European consumers are rushing to buy iodine and potassium iodide pills, which can blunt the effects of exposure to nuclear radiation with pharmacies in Finland, Norway and Luxembourg selling out of their supplies. On Amazon, one bottle of 180 potassium iodide pills now costs $70, up from $30 just weeks earlier
Concerns about a nuclear attack mounted after President Vladimir Putin last week ordered Russia's nuclear forces to go on alert in response to what he called "aggressive statements" by NATO officials.
Amid growing warnings that the war between Russia and NATO in Ukraine could turn nuclear, Polish President Andrzej Duda said Wednesday that he has spoken to Washington about stationing American nuclear weapons in the country.
