Mobile phones are not dangerous
Sunday, 21 October, 2001
Another study, this time in the Journal of the American Medical Association, has found no statistical link between mobile phone use and brain cancer.
The study looked at 469 people diagnosed with primary brain cancer and 422 people who did not have any brain cancers between 1994 and 1998. After taking into account age, sex, race, education and employment they found no significant difference in usage between those who had contracted a brain cancer and those who had not.
On average, cancer sufferers used their mobile phone for 2.5 hours per month over a period of 2.8 years while those who did not have any brain cancer had used their mobile phone for an average of 2.2 hours per month over a similar period of time.
