The latest study of tanning beds suggests they are extremely dangerous
A new analysis of about 20 studies concludes the risk of skin cancer jumps by 75 percent when people start using tanning beds before age 30. Experts also found that all types of ultraviolet radiation caused worrying mutations in mice, proof the radiation is carcinogenic. Previously, only one type of ultraviolet radiation was thought to be lethal.
Ok, that sounds bad in a technical sense but how can we put this into terms more easily understood?
The new classification means tanning beds and other sources of ultraviolet radiation are definite causes of cancer, alongside tobacco, the hepatitis B virus and chimney sweeping.
Tanning…like sweeping chimneys or being infected with hep B. I wish I could use things like this when describing security. Running IDS without ever checking the console or enabling alerts…like being infected with viruses. Might have to work on it a little.
