“Mobile phones more dangerous than smoking”:Radiation
Brain expert warns of huge rise in Tumours and calls on industry to take immediate steps to reduce radiation
Mobile phones could kill far more people than smoking. a study by an award-winning cancer expert has concluded.
He says people should avoid using them wherever possible and that governments and the mobile phone industry must take “immediate steps” to reduce exposure to their radiation.
It draws on growing evidence – exclusively reported in the IoS in October – that using handsets for 10 years or more can double the risk of brain cancer.
Earlier this year, the French government warned against the use of mobile phones, especially by children. Germany also advises its people to minimise handset use, and the European Environment Agency has called for exposures to be reduced.
the Mobile Operators Association dismissed the study saying “a selective discussion of scientific literature by one individual”.
The main problem is exposure to radiation emitted by mobile phones.
