When I worked in high altitude astronomy, I was never screened annually by a doctor that was expert in low level radiation sickness (LLRS) and high altitude disease (HAD).

Steven Magee’s body behaves as if it is permanently above 10,000 feet and causes chronic daily altitude sickness, even though he lives in Tucson, Arizona, USA.

Mal-acclimatization occurs when the human has no long term adaptation to any altitude due to frequent changes in altitude over 4,900 feet. Mal-acclimatization may lead to long term sickness, gender issues, genetic changes, disease and premature death in the human.

Whether I like it or not, I am in a life long relationship with low level radiation sickness (LLRS) and high altitude observatory diseases (HAOD).

Many years of altitude sickness in the sea level adapted human should be expected to progress into illness, disease and premature death.

A sea level adapted armed police officer that has developed altitude sickness should excuse themselves from duty and leave to sea level to treat it.

A sea level adapted armed police officer should leave to sea level at the first signs of altitude sickness.

A sea level adapted armed police officer would be wise not to venture above Hale Pohaku at 9,300-foot (2,800 m) on Mauna Kea due to altitude sickness and the associated health and safety problems that it may cause.

Driving judgment is compromised in the sea level adapted human when at high altitudes.
