Biological Impact of Radiation Exposure

Description:

Although the impact of exposure to radiation can be greatly diminished by swift intervention of radiation removal techniques, the biological impact of extended exposure to radiation can be severe. For individuals who may believe they could benefit from a NukAlert or a monitoring device it's important that steps are also taken to figure out the easiest way to find help. One of the most common side effects of radiation poisoning is cancer and in the case of a nuclear disaster like Chernobyl the surrounding citizens actually experienced high thyroid cancer rates in their youngest citizens and a high incidence of hypothyroidism.
