communication devices, including
children.” The FDA/FCC website
further states that “some groups
sponsored by other national
governments have advised that
children be discouraged from
using wireless phones at all”. For
example, the Stewart Report
from the United Kingdom [“UK”]
made such a recommendation in
December 2000. In this report
a group of independent experts
noted that no evidence exists that
using a cell phone causes brain
tumors or other ill effects. [The
UK’s] recommendation to limit
cell phone use by children was
strictly precautionary; it was not
based on scientific evidence that
any health hazard exists. A copy
of the UK’s leaflet is available
at http://www.dh.gov.uk (search
“mobile”), or you can write to:
NRPB, Chilton, Didcot, Oxon OX11
ORQ, United Kingdom. Copies of
the UK’s annual reports on mobile
phones and RF are available
online at www.iegmp.org.uk and
http://www.hpa.org.uk/radiation/
(search “mobile”). Parents who
wish to reduce their children’s RF
exposure may choose to restrict
their children’s wireless phone use.
Where can I get further
information about RF
emissions?
