10. What about children using
wireless phones?
The scientific evidence does
not show a danger to users of
wireless phones, including
children and teenagers. If you
want to take steps to lower
exposure to Radio Frequency
(RF) energy, the measures
described above would apply
to children and teenagers using
wireless phones. Reducing the
time of wireless phone use and
increasing the distance
between the user and the RF
source will reduce RF exposure.
Some groups sponsored by
other national governments
have advised that children be
discouraged from using wireless
phones at all. For example, the
government in the United
Kingdom distributed leaflets
containing such a
recommendation in December
2000. They noted that no
evidence exists that using a
wireless phone causes brain
tumors or other ill effects.
Their recommendation to limit
wireless phone use by children
was strictly precautionary; it
was not based on scientific
evidence that any health
hazard exists.
11. What about wireless
phone interference with
medical equipment?
Radio Frequency (RF) energy
from wireless phones can
interact with some electronic
devices. For this reason, the
FDA helped develop a detailed
test method to measure Electro
Magnetic Interference (EMI) of
implanted cardiac pacemakers
and defibrillators from wireless
telephones. This test method is
now part of a standard
