    Check out the Mar 24 issue if The Current for coverage on a new study of the health risks of cellphones. A study of rats demonstrated a link btwn EMFs and brain tumour growth. The Current’s test of cellphones used against the body demonstrated that the cellphone radiation is above acceptable limits. An Edmonton NeuroOtologist shares his clinical experience in finding more instances of the types of cancer caused by EMFs, and that these cancers are occuring in younger populations.

    I have read the book by Devra Davis on EMF exposure risks. And, I am one of “those people” who have emf sensitivity. For example, my hands burn and itch when holding a cell.

    More credence needs to be placed on existing research.
