Radiating corruption? The frightening science and politics of cell phone safety – from the US

masts80 This item is taken from an article by Gary Null in the online Ecologist on 8th February 2016

A growing body of scientific evidence show that cell phone users suffer a range of negative health impacts from infertility and brain tumors to hyperactivity and memory loss, writes Gary Null. Yet the Center for Disease Control has taken a weak and ambiguous stance on the issue, reflecting industry interests at the expense of citizens. We deserve - and must demand - better.

The article tell us -

A growing body of independent science shows that cell phones may have massive consequences on the health of our nation, especially our children. It is time that Americans stand up to the corporate profiteers and rein in this invisible danger in our midst.

- and reports inks between cell phone radiation and cancer, health issues in children, infertility, brain and neurological issues.
