There's a note to say (in the Twilight Encounters box I think) they deliberately downplayed the lasting effects of radiation to allow for a slightly "safer" world - one where everyone wasn't already dead or dying from the fallout. If they'd made it more realistic, almost everyone not locked away in a bunker would be a glowing corpse by the end of 1998.
