Flight attendants linked to higher rates of cancer

The video discusses the increased cancer rates among female flight attendants, highlighting a Harvard study that links higher cases of breast cancer and skin cancers to their profession. It explains that cabin crew are frequently exposed to carcinogens, including ionizing radiation from supernovae and the Sun. This radiation can cause subatomic particles to break apart atoms in the body, increasing the risk of fatal cancer and potentially affecting children if exposure occurs during pregnancy.

How does ionizing radiation affect atoms in the body?

What potential impact does radiation exposure have on the children of flight attendants?
