Health Risks of Airport Security Full-body X-ray Screening Systems

Airport Security Full-Body X-ray & Millimeter Wave Screening Systems

Health Risks and Doctors Letters on Radiation Risks

The two types of scanners used in airports are full body millimeter radiation scanners  and backscatter X ray scanners.When full-body X-ray Screening Systems were introduced for airport security, many doctors raised health concerns about the radiation exposure. After years of debate, these x-ray screening systems are now being replaced with millimeter wave systems. Please see below the letters and health concerns raised in regards to the  screening systems.

Health Recommendations: Opt out of full body scanner screenings and get the “pat down” and go though the metal detector instead. Yes, this means you need to get to the airport early.

Note: Due to these health issues, many  newer millimeter wave systems use non-ionizing radiation. However safety is NOT assured with these systems. Millimeter waves are the same frequencies to be used in 5G technology.  Millimeter waves are used in military weapons. Learn more here. ‘
