ANSWER THE QUESTION SURGEON GENERAL! DOES CELL PHONE USE CAUSE BRAIN CANCER?

  • van: Frederick Bothwell
  • ontvanger: Surgeon Genetral of the United States, US Department of Health and Human Services, the World Health Organization

1. There is increasingly conclusive evidence that cell phone use causes brain cancer (GBM) - the disease that killed Ted Kennedy and Beau Biden, and has afflicted John McCain.

2.A recent study published in the International Journal of Oncology is entitled "Mobile phone radiation causes brain tumors and should be classified as a probable human carcinogen" and found that people who used cell phones for more than a year had a 70 percent greater risk of brain cancer, and people who used mobile phones for more than 25 years had a 300 percent greater risk compared to those with a year or less of use.

3. It's time for the US Surgeon General to conduct an investigation, issue a report on the latest available evidence, and update industry guidelines and user safeguards, possibly saving millions of lives.

4. An Italian court recently reached a verdict confirming a link between cell phones and cancer.

5. A study referenced by deniers was published by the World Health Organization in 2010 based on data collected nearly 15 years ago. That study reported "increased risk of glioma (GBM) at the highest exposure levels" but said that the topic requires "further investigation."

6. The discussion of cancer and cell phone use today is where the discussion about cancer and tobacco use was in 1960 before the US Surgeon General published a report confirming the cancer causing effects of tobacco.
