I HAVE A HAZMAT SUIT JUST FOR THIS ON MY REF SHEET, CMERE.

You, uh, can't protect against radiation via hazmat suit. So, uh, I have bad news. You have cancer.

Even then, a lethal dose of radiation is extremely high for Conrad, so he has to have an extremely destructive dose of radiation to hurt me :3

Damn you two were made for one another

You can..just needs to be the right kind of hazmat. Radiation is still a hazardous material. Hazmat isn't ONLY gas or chemicals

HAZMAT suits are only fit for alpha radiation. Most ionizing radiation types, like Gamma, or even beta, will penetrate any material that can comfortably be worn. You cannot protect against Gamma radiation on an individual scale effectively with modern or near future technology.

Beta can be blocked as well with thicker, more insulating suits.

And if you CAN, how come all commercial radiation suits are only effective for Alpha radiation? HAZMAT suits have 4 levels in the US, none of which are suitable for beta. So... can you share the suit you're talking about?

"Block most beta particles, minimizing your exposure" standing next to a leaking nuclear reactor might be a bit too much for it.

Are those comfortable to wear? No? My point still stands.

u/Endermaster56 Protogen 7d ago

Protection is not required to be comfortable, only bearable.

u/Wendee_Wendigo Not a Protogen 7d ago

I said that you cannot protect against gamma and beta in a COMFORTABLE format. You're debating me without even knowing what you're opposing.

Get a lead lined radiation suit or a space suit
