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 radiofrequency 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
