scientific data do not

 

demonstrate that wireless

 

phones are harmful. But if you

 

are concerned about the RF

 

exposure from these products,

 

you can use measures like those

 

described above to reduce your

 

RF exposure from wireless phone

 

use.

 

10. What about children using

 

wireless phones?

 

The scientific evidence does not

 

show a danger to users of

S

wireless phones, including

a f e

children and teenagers. If you

ty

want to take steps to lower

 

 

exposure to Radio Frequency

 

(RF) energy, the measures

 

described above would apply to

 

children and teenagers using

 

wireless phones. Reducing the

 

time of wireless phone use and

 

increasing the distance between

the user and the RF source will reduce RF exposure.

Some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that children be discouraged from using wireless phones at all. For example, the government in the United Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such a recommendation in December 2000. They noted that no evidence exists that using a wireless phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit wireless phone use by children was strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that any health hazard exists.
