Health and Safety Information 3

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has
published information for consumers relating to Radio
Frequency (RF) exposure from wireless phones. The
FDA publication includes the following information:

Do cell phones pose a health hazard?

Many people are concerned that cell phone radiation
will cause cancer or other serious health hazards. The
weight of scientific evidence has not linked cell phones
with any health problems.

Cell phones emit low levels of Radio Frequency (RF)
energy. Over the past 15 years, scientists have
conducted hundreds of studies looking at the biological
effects of the radio frequency energy emitted by cell
phones. While some researchers have reported
biological changes associated with RF energy, these
studies have failed to be replicated. The majority of
studies published have failed to show an association
between exposure to radio frequency from a cell phone
and health problems.

The low levels of RF cell phones emit while in use are
in the microwave frequency range. They also emit RF at
substantially reduced time intervals when in the
stand-by mode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce
