Sumario:ABSTRACT: This study focuses on the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic on annual effective doses and excess lifetime cancer risk values due to ionizing radiation and radon which has been reported UNSCEAR 2000. The random data collection questionnaire method was applied to assess the indoor and outdoor occupancy factor for three age groups during the epidemic in Turkey. The results indicated age group C (Age > 65 y) has more influence from pandemic indoor and outdoor occupancy factor. As compared to before pandemic data in study area and global average exposure to natural radioactive sources. GRAPHIC ABSTRACT: [Image: see text]
