The death toll after the major earthquake that struck Japan has risen to 62, and crews are rushing to find any survivors because they will be in crucial condition at this point. The 7.6 magnitude quake is the worst earthquake to hit Japan since the 9.0 quake of 2011 that caused a nuclear meltdown at Fukushima, and its effects are still going on.
