startling report of Bioinitiative Review
PHONE MASTS WARNING
STUDY: Risks have been played down
HEALTH risks from mobile phone masts and wireless technology are being played down, experts say.
A review published yesterday concludes the electromagnetic impulses the masts transmit can affect the immune system and neurological functions.
This includes memory and sleep patterns, causing brain tumours, cancers and Alzheimer’s.
It says the radiation can have an impact on fertility and metabolism and can cause depression and fatigue.
And there is “little doubt” that exposure causes childhood leukemia, it adds.
Environmental consultant Cindy Sage, one of the authors of the Bioinitiative Review, said: “We think the risks have been downplayed.
“The trend in increasing reports of electrosensitivity is too big to overlook.”
Although the study contains no new science, it is hoped bringing all the evidence on emissions together will force governments to act.
