Cell Phones Dangerous Due To
Brain Cancer Risk?

New evidence on mobile phone hazard as cell phone usage is
linked to brain cancer.
According to The Independent, a recent study led by a
renowned neurosurgeon, Dr. Vini Khurana, strongly
demonstrates that prolonged exposure to mobile phone
radiation will result in brain cancer and neighboring tissue
damage:
It draws on growing evidence - exclusively reported in the
IoS in October - that using handsets for 10 years or more
can double the risk of brain cancer. Cancers take at least a
decade to develop, invalidating official safety assurances
based on earlier studies which included few, if any, people
who had used the phones for that long.
"It is anticipated that this danger has far broader public
health ramifications than asbestos and smoking," says
Professor Khurana, who told the IoS his assessment is partly
based on the fact that three billion people now use the
phones worldwide, three times as many as smoke.
After a quick search on the web, I managed to find the study
on the Brain Surgery Research site .
The key facts are:
• Mobile phones are convenient and frequently invaluable,
yet exposure to their electromagnetic radiation is
invisible. Therefore, any danger this exposure poses may be
easily dismissed.
• Exposure is long-term and its effects on the body,
particularly its electrical organ, the brain, are compounded
by numerous other simultaneous long-term exposures including
continuous waves from radio and TV transmitter towers,
cordless phone base stations, power lines, and wireless/WiFi
computing devices.
• A malignant brain tumour represents a life-ending
diagnosis in the vast majority of those diagnosed. There is
a significant and increasing body of evidence, to date at
least 8 comprehensive clinical studies internationally and
one long-term meta-analysis, for a link between mobile phone
usage and certain brain tumours.
• The "incubation time" or "latency" (i.e., the time from
commencement of regular mobile phone usage to the diagnosis
of a malignant solid brain tumour in a susceptible
individual) may be in the order of 10-20 years. In the years
2008-2012, we will have reached the appropriate length of
follow-up time to begin to definitively observe the impact
of this global technology on brain tumour incidence rates.
• It is anticipated that this danger has far broader public
health ramifications than asbestos and smoking, and directly
concerns all of us, particularly the younger generation,
including very young children.The Independent story goes on
informing that "mobile phones could kill far more people
than smoking or asbestos, a study by an award-winning cancer
expert has concluded. He says people should avoid using them
wherever possible and that governments and the mobile phone
industry must take 'immediate steps' to reduce exposure to
their radiation."
