False.NO

If you don't protect yourself from UV radiation, you may get a sunburn. Excessive exposure may result in skin cancer.
3 reasons people get exposed to radiation poisoning is: Accidental, intentional and without a person's knowledge - mysterious unknown source. The methods of exposure: medical, criminal actions, intentional murder by exposing a person to oral intake of it, inhalation or total body exposure to the radioactive source. Too much exposure to radiation can result in death therefore all businesses, military forces and other places rigorously guard against exposure or the poisoning by radiation.
The radiation can modify the molecules and atoms in DNA strands. Changing DNA changes the way the cell(s) reproduce and can result in a mutation that is inherited, a mutation that is cancerous, or the par of the DNA is inactive and will not result in a noticeable change.
The first that come to mind are sunburn, skin cancer, increased risk of herpes/cold sore outbreaks
A person's chances of getting skin cancer can increase as a result of exposure to the sun due to the ultraviolet rays of the sun damaging the genetic material in the person's skin cells.
Mutations arise as a result of exposure to radiation, chemicals, and viruses. Many different things might act as a mutagen. Science itself probably does not cause mutations.
The skin cells themselves, as they go through abnomal division as a result of exposure to things such as carbon black, gamma rays, or UV radiation.
The excess exposure and ultraviolet light dosage can and will result in damage to human tissues. Two forms of damage include burns and inducing cancer causing mutations.
