Radiation protection provides people with appropriate protective measures against the harmful effects of radiation. This applies to emergencies, but also in some professions.
The most effective way of radiation protection would be to renounce nuclear power. Private measures and correct behavior for radiation protection cannot prevent large-scale radiation in case of an emergency. But they can significantly reduce the harmful consequences.
When the radiation protection signal "Warning" (three minutes long continuous tone) sounds, one should turn on the radio or TV set. The relevant federal or. National warning centers immediately pass on information about the nature and extent of the disaster to the television stations, which immediately publish it.
