During the last decades thousands of studies have been done that have tried to find evidence between the use of mobile phones and cancer . Therefore, the FDA has reviewed the last 11 years of studies that have tried to find a relationship, and have confirmed what we already knew: that there is no evidence that the cell phone gives cancer.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is responsible for regulating products such as food or medicine in the United States, thus determining which are safe for sale, use and consumption. Therefore, they have decided to analyze all the studies related to mobile telephony between 2008 and 2019 .
The mobile is safe: 11 years of studies support it
After analyzing them, they affirm that “there are no quantifiable adverse effects on human health caused by exposures equal to or lower than the current limits of exposure to mobiles.” These limits refer to the SAR radiation emitted by mobiles, and therefore they will not modify the limits established by the FCC because they are “acceptable to protect public health”.
And it is that many of the studies that are usually used to try to associate the mobile with cancer use radiation that is tens, hundreds or thousands of times higher than we are normally exposed. The FCC recently reported that 5G is safe due to the doubts that had begun to generate groups of people who were poorly informed about it. These groups claimed that the millimeter waves could negatively affect humans, but they remain ionizing radiation and have no adverse effect on the body as they cannot generate changes in the DNA.
Previously, the FCC had also asked the FDA for an opinion on safe radio frequency levels for 5G . In one of the studies they analyzed at the time, adverse effects had been found in mice when using 3G. The problem is that the methodology used in that study does not apply to the way we use mobiles, since as we said the radiation was up to 75 times higher than what we are exposed to daily, in addition to doing it throughout the body and for 9 hours a day.
Although current evidence shows that mobile networks do not generate cancer and that 5G is safe because it uses frequencies whose safety has been demonstrated in the studies analyzed, the FDA will continue to monitor the possible impact that 5G has on health as they are published. New studies
Almost a month ago, the Barcelona City Council published an embarrassing article that they ended up withdrawing within a few hours in which they said that “5G was not harmless”, stating that there were countries that were blocking it and that there were studies that claimed it was dangerous , although the radiation is not ionizing and shortly after they understood how the radio spectrum works they would know that there is no problem. In fact, if the mobile caused cancer, the entire population would have it because there are tens of millions of terminals in our country, in addition to being surrounded by electromagnetic waves from television, radio, WiFi , etc.
