A six year research porgramme set up by the UK government reported on Tuesday that the evidence so far does not link mobile phones to harmful effects on human health or biology.
However, the report said that the vast majority of available evidence relates to short term use, and further research is needed before one can be certain of longer term effects.
The report come out with the following conclusions:
1- There is no association between short term mobile phone use and brain cancer.
2- Studies on volunteers found no evidence that brain function was affected by signals from mobile phones and emergency service signals (TETRA).
3- The Programme included the largest and most robust research studies on electrical hypersensitivity and mobile phone use in the world.
4- They found no evidence that unpleasant symptoms reported by people with electrical hypersensitivity are caused by exposure to signals from mobile phones or base stations.
5- In terms of cell biology, there is no evidence that mobile phones alter cells and tissue apart from heating them.
