It depends on the wavelength, and the intensity. Most microwaves pass through us with no issues. Microwaves used for heating water will heat our tissues, causing damage / death. Microwaves used in older radar guns caused bone cancer when the patrolmen using those guns layed them on their legs between reading vehicle speeds.
