Lani's post is informative as usual.
I have previously posted some stats which you might be able to find with the search engine.
There has been mention in the media of new techniques - seeding, and topical delivery by balloon.
The issue of the questions as to how effective is radiation for distant spread has been raised, what is risk of existing micro spread ........

A huge amount to consider, and at the end of the day a very individual decision in a landscape that is emerging and changing and where answers are not definative.
