Cell phones are safe
p2pnet.net News:- Overhead electricity cables, Wi-Fi, cell phones: they’re all said to be hazardous to your health.
But you’re OK with cell phones, says a new Danish study. They don’t trigger cancer.
“Scientists tracked 420,000 Danish cell phone users, including 52,000 who had gabbed on the gadgets for 10 years or more, and some who started using them 21 years ago,” says Associated Press.
“They matched phone records to the famed Danish Cancer Registry that records every citizen who gets the disease – and reported Tuesday that cell-phone callers are no more likely than anyone else to suffer a range of cancer types.”
Published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, is the largest study yet to find no bad news about the safety of cell phones and the radio frequency energy they emit, says the story.

“Cell phones are safe”
The story states that cell phone use does not statistically increase a person’s risk of getting cancer. No where did it say cell phones are safe.
“As the body of evidence accumulates, people can become more reassured that these devices are safe, but the final word is not there yet,”
