There is no link between mobile phones and any health problems, a decade-long report has concluded.
The study also found no evidence that exposure to base station emissions during pregnancy increases the risk of childhood leukaemia.
The Mobile Telecommunications and Health Research programme was the UK’s largest research programme to look at the possible health risks associated with mobile phone technology.
‘
Thanks to the research conducted within the programme, we can now be much more confident about the safety of modern telecommunications systems.’
The £13.6 million, 11 year programme has been jointly funded by the UK government and the telecommunications industry.
Its findings support 2012 research which showed mobile and Wi-Fi technology doesn't cause cancer and causes no damage to health.
After assessing health hazards from low-level electromagnetic fields generated by radio transmitters, researchers at the Norwegian Expert Committee found there is no scientific evidence that exposure poses a health risk.
These electromagnetic fields are found around mobile phones, wireless phones and networks, mobile phone base stations, broadcasting transmitters and other communications equipment.
The latest research also supports a 2011 study from Imperial College London which found that living close to a mobile phone mast does not increase a child's chance of developing a brain tumour or a tumour of the central nervous system.
So let's not be deceived, cellphones have no health risk.
Oh dis is good, i thought phones are risky to health especially when its vibrating
