The Deadly Facts from the Cell Phone Industry’s Own Study
In 1999, the results of the research findings were published. The following summary is quoted directly from that report:
1. The rate of death from brain cancer among handheld phone users was higher than the rate of brain cancer among those who used non-handheld phones that were away from their head
2. The risk of acoustic neuroma, a benign tumor of the auditory nerve, was 50% higher in people who reported using cell phones for six years or more
3. The risk of rare neuro-epithelial tumors on the outside of the brain was more than doubled in cell phone users as compared to non-users 4. There is some correlation between tumors occurring on the right side of the head and use of the phone on the right side of the head
5. Laboratory studies looking at the ability of radiation from a cell phone’s antenna to cause functional genetic damage were definitely positive
In other words, the research found genetic damage, leakage of the blood-brain barrier, cellular dysfunction and a tripling in the risk of rare neuroepithelial tumors and rare brain tumors in people using cell phones versus those who did not use cell phones. In fact, the tumors even correlated to the side of the head where the subjects reported using the phone most often. In all, over 56 studies were funded by the cell phone industry and over 200 scientists and doctors from around the world participated.
The research findings were reported to the cell phone industry executives with the suggestion that the industry inform the public and allow users to begin to take precautionary steps until more research could be done. A detailed account of the whole story can be found in a book that chronicled the events that took place. The book, titled Cell Phones: Invisible Hazards in the Wireless Age can be found at most book stores. The shocking part of this whole process is that in spite of the concrete peer-reviewed findings produced by this research the cell phone industry chose not to go public with the information.
