Kyle Hill has some pretty good videos on this topic: https://youtu.be/bmVGwOP_zi8?feature=shared

My understanding is that while the fallout from Chernobyl wasn't very dangerous, and didn't lead to a noticeable increase in cancer rates, the area around the reactor is still very dangerous due to the debris from the reactor core that's scattered around.
