There are at least four good reasons not to avoid UV radiation. One of these is when it is used to kill germs. Another use is for "curing". This is what the dentist does when he puts a UV light into your mouth, to cure the bonding material. A third use is to detect counterfeit paper money. You may see a cashier put a bill under a UV lamp to check its authenticity. And the last of the four that I will supply is when they aim a UV light at your hand or arm to check to see if you are allowed to reenter a venue!
