World Health Organization Declares Mobile Phones “as big a risk as lead, engine exhaust, and chloroform”
After a meeting with scientists from around the world, the World Health Organization (WHO) announced this morning that it has now categorized mobile phone radiation as a “possible carcinogenic hazard.” This is a label that the WHO has also placed on lead, engine exhaust, and chloroform. This new warning is “based on an increased risk for glioma, a malignant type of brain cancer, associated with wireless phone use.”
