Radiation Dose Chart






XKCD have created a chart that compares the radiation a person would be exposed to in different situations.

It demonstrates how silly people can be when worrying about some things. I think they should
do another one indicating the amount of mercury found in vaccinations.


Using a cell phone (0 µSv)-a cell phone's transmitter does not
produce ionizing radiation* and does not cause cancer.

* Unless it's a bananaphone.
