No, Chernobyl was never rebuilt. It is in a concrete saphogarus. It will in any near human history not be used for anything as the halflife of the nuklear materials are like 30+ years and it will take a minimum of about 20 times before the radiation levels are acceptable for humans.... The nuclear core will be a shining blob of crap for at least the next 5000 years though....

The only rebuilding that is done is the maintenance on the concrete saphogarus....

Quote from the article:

The Chernobyl accident killed more than 30 people immediately, and as a result of the high radiation levels in the surrounding 20-mile radius, 135,00 people had to be evacuated.

This is funny, as the millions that were affected by it, died of increased cancers and other radiation related illnesses were never counted. 30 immidiately is the plant crew, the thousands in the town that died within days I suppose aren't counted as "immidiate".
