1. Do wireless phones pose a
health hazard?
The available scientific evidence
does not show that any health
problems are associated with
using wireless phones. There is
no proof, however, that wireless
phones are absolutely safe.
Wireless phones emit low levels
of Radio Frequency (RF) energy
in the microwave range while
being used. They also emit very
low levels of RF when in standby
mode. Whereas high levels of
RF can produce health effects
(by heating tissue), exposure
to low level RF that does not
produce heating effects causes
no known adverse health effects.
Many studies of low level RF
exposures have not found any
