In new 60 Ghz 5G wavelengths skin reflects 20-30% of the power and the rest is almost completely absorbed by the epidermis. Overall the power densities are so slow that there is no reason to except anything.&lt;p&gt;Exposing skin to the sun is known radiation hazard.

Nothing is certain yet, but the most likely health effects will be indirect. Two areas of concern are effects on insect populations, which are already in collapse, and effects on bacterial development, including potentially causing resistance to antibiotics. These studies would be a good place to start if you&amp;#x27;re interested in more information:&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;doi.org&amp;#x2F;10.1038&amp;#x2F;s41598-018-22271-3&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;doi.org&amp;#x2F;10.1038&amp;#x2F;s41598-018-22271-3&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;doi.org&amp;#x2F;10.3109&amp;#x2F;1040841X.2012.691461&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;doi.org&amp;#x2F;10.3109&amp;#x2F;1040841X.2012.691461&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain><item><author>l0000p</author><text>Unfortunately, a statement like that, has just as much value as the conspiracy theory.
