dangers of pesticides

You can get dermatological,cancer, depression, neurological deficits,

You also can have miscarriages, birth defects.

these are just some of the things that can happen to u if u work around pesticides.

Dangers of asbestos

Asbestos is a vary dangers substances and can be vary deadly the effects can be lung cancer, Mesopotamia, and even death.

the effects of lead poisoning

Lead poisoning can cause someone to feel sick, have stomach and chest pains, headaches, diarrhea, and vomiting. Lead poisoning is when you have too much lead in your bloodstream. Lead is a metal compound on the periodic table of elements.

The Dangers of UV light

Ultraviolet light or radiation (UV) can be very damaging to your eyes. UV rays are the same ones that damage and age your skin and they can cause very serious long term damage to your eyes unless you have proper protection. These days, sunglasses can block 99-100% of all UVA and UVB rays.

if you don't not protect your self form UV light you well look like Michael Jackson. and i don't think you want that. <('.')>

perventing the spread of illness

Even cheap masks stop flu spreading Normal surgical masks help prevent people with the flu from spreading the virus just as well as more expensive face protection, a study shows for the first time.

Australian researchers found that in a real-life situation surgical masks effectively contain the virus when infected people cough.

Previous studies tested masks in laboratories using machines, not humans, and with non-infectious particles, says co-author Professor Lindsay Grayson, director of infectious diseases at Melbourne's Austin Hospital.

"Our study compared the value of masks for the first time in a real-life clinical situation, in people with flu," Grayson says.

Fellow researcher, infectious diseases registrar Dr Doug Johnson, will present findings at the Australasian Society for Infectious Diseases annual scientific meeting on the Sunshine Coast this week.

The study compared routine surgical masks with the more expensive and uncomfortable N95 masks, which are made from finer material.

Johnson recruited 28 people who presented to emergency with suspected flu; nine with confirmed influenza A or B continued in the study.

Most arrived about two days into the illness at their sickest and most contagious.

Participants coughed onto Petri dishes wearing no mask, a surgical mask and an N95 mask. Dishes were 10 centimetres away, about the same as lying near a coughing person or a sick child coughing into a parent's face.
Both masks work

No influenza virus was detected when participants wore the surgical or N95 mask but influenza was detected on all dishes when no mask was worn.

"Using this method, both masks appear to work equally as well because there was no detectable virus on the dishes. The material of both masks stopped droplets escaping," Grayson says.

"Although small, this study suggests that it doesn't matter whether people with flu wear a surgical or N95 mask, it's likely to prevent transmission of the virus, meaning less infection of healthcare workers and relatives.

"We can apply findings to bird flu and say it won't get through because avian flu is the same size virus. So, preliminary evidence is supportive at least for infected people wearing masks."
If you have the flu

He suggests doctors' surgeries have signs asking patients who think they have flu to advise staff and receive a mask to wear in the waiting room. He also suggests people at home with the flu wear masks when going out.

Austin patients hospitalised with flu will now wear surgical instead of N95 masks when leaving their single room for tests, Grayson says.

Findings strengthen the rationale for recommendations that patients in hospital with flu and healthcare workers treating them wear masks.

Grayson says US and Australian guidelines recommend N95 masks for bird flu based on laboratory evidence but it is hard for health workers to wear them for lengthy periods and their supply is limited

it answers the question of how to stop form getting sick and getting other people form getting sick.
