Două meserii foarte căutate și bine plătite asociate cu riscul de a face anumite forme de cancer • Newsweek România
A recent study found that flight attendants and pilots have a higher risk of cancer linked to radiation exposure. Analyzing nearly 13 million deaths, the research revealed that flight attendants had a 6.9% cancer death rate, while pilots had 6.7%. The study suggests that cosmic radiation at cruising altitudes may contribute to this increased risk. However, researchers caution that the findings do not establish a direct cause-and-effect relationship due to limitations in the data, such as lack of detailed flight hours and lifestyle factors. Further investigation is warranted to explore occupational radiation exposure and protective measures for airline crew members.
