Radiations emitted by mobile phones and towers do not cause any
health hazard, experts said here Thursday. Myths without any
reasonable scientific basis have been floated by people with vested
business interests that electromagnetic field emissions (EMF) cause
health hazard, they said. Rigorous and independent scientific
studies across the globe have been carried out to dispel the fear of
health hazard from mobile tower antenna and phones. Experts
were
speaking at a panel discussion on "Mobile network and public
health" organised by the COAI, a leading mobile communications
association. They stressed that people, who believe that radiations
are really harmful, are not fully aware and should understand this
perception clearly. "Ionising radiation causes damages to the
molecules - they break the chemical bonds and can cause health
hazards. But non-ionising radiation from mobile tower and antenna
do not cause the breakage of bonds and do not cause damage to
the
molecules," said R.V.Hosur, senior professor, Chemical Science,
Tata Institute of Fundamental Research. "A number research and
studies have been conducted around the globe to ascertain if there
is any relationship between the radiation emission from the mobile
phone and cancer. However there is no enough evidence providing
mobile phones causes cancer in humans," he added. According to
the World Health Organisation (WHO), over six billion people use
mobile phones to communicate with one another. "The radiation
waves used in the mobile phones technology are probably at the
lowest end of the electromagnetic spectrum and do not cause any
health hazard," said Rakesh Jalali, Radiation Oncologist at Tata
Medical Centre.
