Car accidents also suck, but no one is proposing to ban all the cars. The idea is to make them safer. High speed accidents are more dangerous than low speed accidents, but people still complain that they like to drive faster.
Talking with the cell phone while driving increase the accident rate, it' banned in some place, but I think it's not banned in USA. IIRC texting while driving is not banned in USA, even when it's clearly more dangerous because you have to put your eyes on the phone instead of the road.
The word is full of tradeoff.
A mammography increase slightly your cancer risk, but it can detect small cancers so it increase the life length. But if the mammographies are too frequent, the chance to detect a new cancer decrease (because it has no time to appear) and the chance to create a new cancer increase (because you get more radiation). A few years ago, they reduced the recommendation from one mammography each year to one mammography every two years, because once a year was too much.
(Check the current recommendation with your medical doctor, it depends on the age and other factors.)
