Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA regulatory actions, the FDA has urged the wireless phone industry to take a number of steps, including the following:

 

Support needed research into

 

possible biological effects of

 

 

RF of the type emitted by

 

 

wireless phones;

Safety

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.

The FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the

88federal agencies that have

responsibility for different aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts at the federal level. The following agencies belong to this working group:

National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
