I haven't seen anything about "fatal levels" (by which I assume you mean definitively lethal) in reactor 4, only that there was a rise with withdrawal of personnel today, now they are back.

Here's a pretty good update from this afternoon:

CNN reports that situation is continuing to worsen and fatal levels of radiation are coming from reactor #4, at this point it is impossible to assess so I think great care should be extended before exposing workers, perhaps you can read the minds of Japanese officials but I cannot....I'm making no accusations as fact merely expressing concern.
