There are three primay ways to limit exposure to radiation, and they are time, distance, and shielding. By decreasing the time you are exposed, you limit exposure. By increasing the distance between you and the source, you limit exposure. And by placing shielding between you and the source you limit exposure.
Gamma rays are quite penetrating. Fairly thick shielding (of lead, or some other dense material) is necessary to block gamma rays.Gamma rays most of the time accompany alpha radiation and beta radiation so in case of an accident which causes emit of radiation the best thing someone can do is to go to a basement that is fully underground.
Several feet of concrete or a few inches of lead.

Several feet of concrete or a few inches of leadLead is a good material against gamma rays.
Lead (being a very dense metal) is generally the material used to guard against gamma rays--radiologists, who take your x-rays, stand behind a lead based shield, since they are exposed to small doses day after day (there is no danger to you). CBRNE: C
Lead, solid rock, or a great depth of sea water. Ideally a barrier of concrete and lead is used for shielding from gamma sources.
No. Gamma rays are extremly energetic rays; too difficult to control. X-Rays, which are weaker than gamma rays, have certain uses in technology, but hardly for communications.

Miles of lead and concrete would be ultimate protection against gamma rays.

concrete or thick led. gamma rays cant be stopped they go on for millions of years.
no gamma rays are the best
