How long does it take for nuclear radiation to kill you from a nuke?
SITFED159
If high enough dose, you might last a week, but you'd be wishing you were already dead. Whether it's a fatal dose or not though depends both on total accumulated dose and time frame over which it was received. A fatal dose of 550 R (for 50%+), received in under a week, if spread out more evenly over four months would be survivable for most healthy adults. Nuclear bomb blasts & fallout are more survivable than most think, IF one knows what to do beforehand. Of course, those at ground zero are toast, but the overwhelming majority of the potential casualties are further out in the blast zone and further downwind in the fallout zone later and, IF they know what to do, 90% of them can save themselves.

How far could a nuclear bomb cover?
A nuke can cover up to 200 miles. Mega Ton nukes blow up even farther. But the real affect of a nuke is the radiation. One nuke can spread radiation all over Europe. If you do get radiation you die in 2 days. Though the answer above overstates the case they can be truly devastating. The effect of a nuclear weapon depends on the 'yield' of the bomb. The yield is measured in equivalent tonnage of TNT exploding but this is only an indication of the blast and not the radiation. The bomb dropped on Hiroshima had an equivalent tonnage of 15 -20,000 tons of TNT. The weapons today can be constructed in the millions of tons range easily.
