The power density limits for 5G (which is 20-40 GHz approx.) are very low. Your own body actually emits a higher power density of thermal radiation ( > 20W/m^2) than the proposed limits on 5G (55 W/m^2). And thermal radiation is in a higher frequency range of EM radiation, i.e. higher energy. It is very unlikely that any adverse effects will occur. The absorption depth of 5G is also sub-millimeter, i.e. it will absorb in the upper layer of skin. It can only cause heating, but since your body will radiate that energy out just as quickly, there is very little probability of any adverse effects. UV does damage because each individual photon can break bonds. GHz radiation can only cause heating, each photon has ~1/10,000th of the energy as a UV photon.
