Answer: Does Radioactivity Cause Death?

in Healthy Steem8 months ago

Greetings...


First of all I would like to thank the @healthsteem community and @dexsyluz for organizing such a contest to develop our knowledge.

Today I would like to discuss in detail about radioactive elements and their harm to life.

All living things on earth are always exposed to radiation in the external environment, and this radiation has been overused nowadays.

The extent of the damage depends on how much exposure there is to it.


Does radiation cause death? justify your answer.


Yes.
nowadays we are more exposed to radiation, so long-term cell damage can lead us to death. After the United States dropped two atomic bombs on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan, the huge environmental and human damage was enormous.

Atomic bombs are radioactive and the radiation of those elements is very harmful to every living thing and they can kill anyone.
There are also certain types of radiation that are less lethal, such as X-rays and CT scan ionizing radiation.

In general, the amount of damage caused by radiation varies according to individual sensitivity and the type of radiation. Long-term exposure time and radiation level will damage body cells and increase the risk of cancer. Moreover, radiation will especially damage bone marrow and intestinal cells and this will lead to fatal diseases.

There are different levels of natural radiation in the environment we live in. Therefore, not all radiation causes death and we should be well aware.
To protect ourselves from exposure to radioactive conditions as much as possible.


If you were there 40 years ago, what would you want to change so that the Chernobyl accident would not happen?


Actually, I did not know about the Chernobyl accident before and I was informed by google and other sources to find the facts for this post.

I believe that safety first is mandatory for jobs in the field.

  • If I were there 40 years ago, the first thing I would do would be to better train the workers who are being recruited to the nuclear plant and make their jobs more clear.

  • As far as I know, a sudden power cut caused a reactor to overheat and explode.
    And then the most important thing is to make the reactors safe according to the inspection procedures and appoint personnel to inspect the reactors to ensure they are working at their best.

  • A must-do with all of this is good safety procedures and emergency plans. All employees should be trained on how to act in an emergency, with protocols well in place and in the event of a radioactive spill.

Before the Chernobyl accident,If the proper steps were in place when a problem occurred, workers could have prevented the explosion or limited its effects. Unfortunately, that was not the case. Otherwise many deaths may be prevented.


Nowadays, how are we exposed to radiation?


Nowadays we are exposed to radiation in many ways. Among them, the most common are X-ray and CT scan. When we perform tests like CT scan anywhere in the body, we have to be exposed to radiation.

These tests allow doctors to see the inside of your body to make important diagnoses, but when your body is exposed to radiation have to.
Nuclear testing can also expose you to nuclear radiation, which can result from nuclear accidents.

Exposure to radiation using technological devices such as microwaves, telephones or televisions with LCD screens. Although these radiations are not really harmful to the body, their high doses can still cause serious health problems.

Finally, I can say that radiation is definitely connected with us nowadays. All we can do is avoid prolonged exposure and we must be very careful about controlling levels.

Hi, wow that was terrible, I really didn't know about that event either, how sad. Radiation is very harmful, avoiding excesses is ideal. Although as you mentioned it is present in our lives, in small doses, as long as we can avoid being exposed it is the healthiest thing to do.

And I hope that events like those of Hiroshima, which even today generations suffer the consequences, never should have happened. Thank you for inviting me, see you soon.

Hola amigo, muy ciertas palabras. Opino que si la central de Chernobyl no hubiese ocultado la información, fuese Sido posible tomar acciones que mitigaran los daños. Suerte en tu participación

hola amigo

La destrucción de ambas ciudades de japón es un triste ejemplo de que la radiación no controlada es letal, por suerte los teléfonos de'hoy emiten muy poca cantidad de radición, tanto así que podría hacernos daño pero muy leve o poco probable

No estoy diciendo que sea imposible! de hecho es bastante probable

saludos amigo
Espero te haya gustado participar!
Dios te bendiga
