MUMBAI: RF Safe makes the case for taking action to protect children from cell phone radiation and warning labels on cell phones. RF Safe reminds parents cell phone radiation is potentially carcinogenic and children are at greater risk.
According to RF Safe, “every major well-designed study ever conducted has found that those who use cellphones regularly for half an hour a day or more for a decade have a doubled risk of brain cancer, and those who began using cellphones as teenagers have four to five times more disease in less than 10 years.”
John Coates, RF Safe’s founder points to highly cited peer reviewed studies when making his case. Such as this study published in US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health September: 2007 which took into account 16 other studies. Long-term use of cellular phones and brain tumours: increased risk associated with use for more or equal to ten years.
Originally named the Children’s Wireless Protection Act, this bill will require all cell phones sold retail (for-profit) in Maine, by law will force cell phone manufacturer’s information about radio-frequency exposure (Cell Phone Radiation) to be plainly visible on the outside of the cell phone’s packaging. Maine’s House of Representatives has passed “The Wireless Information Act” with a House vote of 83 in favor and 56 opposed.
