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.
E840-2.fm Page 46 Monday, May 14, 2007 9:04 AM Health and safety information • • • “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 that is not necessary for device function; and “Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with the best possible information on possible effects of wireless phone use on human health.
E840-2.fm Page 47 Monday, May 14, 2007 9:04 AM than do the wireless phones themselves, the RF exposures that people get from these base stations are typically thousands of times lower than those they can get from wireless phones. Base stations are thus not the primary subject of the safety questions discussed in this document. 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.
