1. Do wireless phones pose a health

hazard?

Theavailablescientificevidencedoes

notshowthatanyhealthproblemsare

associatedwithusingwirelessphones.

Thereisnoproof,however,thatwireless

phonesareabsolutelysafe.Wirelessphones

emitlowlevelsofradiofrequencyenergy

(RF)inthemicrowaverangewhilebeing

used.TheyalsoemitverylowlevelsofRF

wheninthestandbymode.Whereashigh

levelsofRFcanproducehealtheffects

(byheatingtissue),exposuretolowlevel

RFthatdoesnotproduceheatingeffects

causesnoknownadversehealtheffects.

ManystudiesoflowlevelRFexposures

havenotfoundanybiologicaleffects.Some

studieshavesuggestedthatsomebiological

effectsmayoccur,butsuchfindingshave

notbeenconfirmedbyadditionalresearch.

Insomecases,otherresearchershavehad

difficultyinreproducingthosestudies,or

indeterminingthereasonsforinconsistent

results.

2. What is the FDA’s role concerning the

safety of wireless phones?

Underthelaw,theFDAdoesnotreview

thesafetyofradiationemittingconsumer

productssuchaswirelessphonesbefore

theycanbesold,asitdoeswithnewdrugs

ormedicaldevices.However,theagencyhas

authoritytotakeactionifwirelessphones

areshowntoemitradiofrequencyenergy

(RF)atalevelthatishazardoustotheuser.

Insuchacase,theFDAcouldrequirethe

manufacturersofwirelessphonestonotify

usersofthehealthhazardandtorepair,

replace,orrecallthephonessothatthe

hazardnolongerexists.

Althoughtheexistingscientificdatadonot

justifyFDAregulatoryactions,theFDAhas

urgedthewirelessphoneindustrytotakea

numberofsteps,includingthefollowing:

•Supportneededresearchintopossible

biologicaleffectsofRFofthetypeemitted

bywirelessphones;

•Designwirelessphonesinawaythat

minimizesanyRFexposuretotheuser

and

•Cooperateinprovidingofwirelessphones

withthebestpossibleinformationon

humanhealth.

TheFDAbelongstoaninteragencyworking

groupofthefederalagenciesthathave

responsibilityfordifferentaspectsofRF

safetytoensurecoordinatedeffortsatthe

federallevel.Thefollowingagenciesbelong

tothisworkinggroup:

•NationalInstituteforOccupationalSafety

TheNationalInstitutesofHealthparticipates

insomeinteragencyworkinggroupactivities,

aswell.

TheFDAsharesregulatoryresponsibilities

forwirelessphoneswiththeFederal

3. What kinds of phones are the subject

of this update?

Theterm‘wirelessphone’refershere

tohandheldwirelessphoneswithbuiltin

antennas,oftencalled‘cell’,‘mobile’,or

‘PCS’phones.Thesetypesofwireless

phonescanexposetheusertomeasurable

radiofrequencyenergy(RF)becauseof

theshortdistancebetweenthephoneand

theuser’shead.TheseRFexposuresare

limitedbyFCCsafetyguidelinesthatwere

developedwiththeadviceoftheFDAand

otherfederalhealthandsafetyagencies.

Whenthephoneislocatedatgreater

distancesfromtheuser,theexposuretoRF

isdrasticallylowerbecauseaperson’sRF

exposuredecreasesrapidlywithincreasing

distancefromthesource.Theso-called‘

cordlessphones,’whichhaveabaseunit

connectedtothetelephonewiringina

house,typicallyoperateatfarlowerpower

levels,andthusproduceRFexposuresfar

belowtheFCCsafetylimits.

4. What are the results of the research

done already?

Theresearchdonethusfarhasproduced

conflictingresults,andmanystudies

havesufferedfromflawsintheirresearch

methods.Animalexperimentsinvestigating

theeffectsofradiofrequencyenergy(RF)

exposurescharacteristicofwirelessphones

haveyieldedconflictingresultsthatoften

cannotberepeatedinotherlaboratories.A

fewanimalstudies,however,havesuggested

thatlowlevelsofRFcouldacceleratethe

developmentofcancerinlaboratoryanimals.

However,manyofthestudiesthatshowed

increasedtumordevelopmentusedanimals

thathadbeengeneticallyengineeredor

astobepredisposedtodevelopcancer

intheabsenceofRFexposure.Other

studiesexposedtheanimalstoRFforup

to22hoursperday.Theseconditionsare

notsimilartotheconditionsunderwhich

peopleusewirelessphones,sowedon’t

knowwithcertaintywhattheresultsofsuch

epidemiologystudieshavebeenpublished

sinceDecember2000.Betweenthem,the

studiesinvestigatedanypossibleassociation

betweentheuseofwirelessphonesand

primarybraincancer,glioma,meningioma,

oracousticneuroma,tumorsofthebrainor

salivarygland,leukemia,orothercancers.

Noneofthestudiesdemonstratedthe

existenceofanyharmfulhealtheffectsfrom

wirelessphoneRFexposures.

However,noneofthestudiescananswer

questionsaboutlongtermexposures,since

theaverageperiodofphoneuseinthese

studieswasaroundthreeyears.

5. What research is needed to decide

whether RF exposure from wireless

phones poses a health risk?

Acombinationoflaboratorystudiesand

epidemiologicalstudiesofpeopleactually

usingwirelessphoneswouldprovidesome

ofthedatathatareneeded.Lifetimeanimal

exposurestudiescouldbecompletedina

datathatisdirectlyapplicabletohuman

populations,but10ormoreyearsfollow-up

maybeneededtoprovideanswersabout

somehealtheffects,suchascancer.

Thisisbecausetheintervalbetweenthe

timeofexposuretoacancer-causingagent

andthetimetumorsdevelop-iftheydo

maybemany,manyyears.Theinterpretation

ofepidemiologicalstudiesishamperedby

difficultiesinmeasuringactualRFexposure

duringday-to-dayuseofwirelessphones.

Manyfactorsaffectthismeasurement,such

astheangleatwhichthephoneisheld,or

whichmodelofphoneisused.

6. What is the FDA doing to find out more

about the possible health effects of

wireless phone RF?

TheFDAisworkingwiththeU.S.National

7. How can I find out how much

radiofrequency energy exposure I can

get by using my wireless phone?

AllphonessoldintheUnitedStatesmust

8. What has the FDA done to measure

the radiofrequency energy coming

from wireless phones?

TheInstituteofElectricalandElectronic

inwatts/kg(ormilliwatts/g)ofmatter.This

measurementisusedtodeterminewhether

awirelessphonecomplieswithsafety

guidelines.

9. What steps can I take to reduce my

exposure to radiofrequency energy

from my wireless phone?

Ifthereisariskfromtheseproducts-and

atthispointwedonotknowthatthere

is-itisprobablyverysmall.Butifyouare

concernedaboutavoidingevenpotential

risks,youcantakeafewsimplestepsto

minimizeyourexposuretoradiofrequency

energy(RF).Sincetimeisakeyfactorin

howmuchexposureapersonreceives,

reducingtheamountoftimespentusinga

wirelessphonewillreduceRFexposure.If

youmustconductextendedconversations

bywirelessphoneeveryday,youcould

placemoredistancebetweenyourbodyand

thesourceoftheRF,sincetheexposure

leveldropsoffdramaticallywithdistance.

Forexample,youcoulduseaheadsetand

carrythewirelessphoneawayfromyour

bodyoruseawirelessphoneconnectedto

aremoteantenna.Again,thescientificdata

donotdemonstratethatwirelessphonesare

RFexposurefromtheseproducts,youcan

usemeasureslikethosedescribedabove

toreduceyourRFexposurefromwireless

phoneuse.

10. What about children using wireless

phones?

Thescientificevidencedoesnotshow

adangertousersofwirelessphones,

includingchildrenandteenagers.Ifyou

wanttotakestepstolowerexposureto

radiofrequencyenergy(RF),themeasures

describedabovewouldapplytochildren

andteenagersusingwirelessphones.

Reducingthetimeofwirelessphoneuse

andincreasingthedistancebetweenthe

userandtheRFsourcewillreduceRF

exposure.Somegroupssponsoredbyother

nationalgovernmentshaveadvisedthat

childrenbediscouragedfromusingwireless

December2000.Theynotedthatno

evidenceexiststhatusingawirelessphone

recommendationtolimitwirelessphoneuse

bychildrenwasstrictlyprecautionary;itwas

notbasedonscientificevidencethatany
