Des preuves évidentes du risque de cancer des radiofréquences des téléphones portables

Dans un nouveau document (en anglais) intitulé "Des preuves évidentes du risque de cancer des radiofréquences des téléphones portables" publié dans la revue IEEE Microwave Magazine, le Dr James C. Lin déclare que les résultats de l’étude du "National Toxicology Program" sur le rayonnement des téléphones mobiles suggèrent que les directives actuelles relatives à l'exposition aux radiofréquences (RF) ne permettent pas de protéger la santé humaine. En outre, le document recommande que le Centre international de recherche sur le cancer (CIRC) réévalue la recherche et envisage d’améliorer la classification des rayonnements RF de «possiblement cancérogène pour l’homme» (groupe 2B) à probablement cancérogène (groupe 2A). Merci au Dr Joel Moskowitz pour son analyse et son action d'information et de protection de la santé des utilisateurs de téléphonie mobile.

National Toxicology Program Finds Cell Phone Radiation Causes Cancer

“Clear evidence of cell-phone RF radiation cancer risk”


In a new paper, “Clear evidence of cell-phone RF radiation cancer risk” published in the journal IEEE Microwave Magazine, Dr. James C. Lin states that the results of the National Toxicology Program (NTP) cell phone radiation study suggest that current radio frequency (RF) exposure guidelines are inadequate to protect human health (1). Furthermore, the paper recommends that the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) re-assess the research and consider upgrading the classification of RF radiation from "possibly carcinogenic to humans" (Group 2B) to probably carcinogenic (i.e., Group 2A).

Although Dr. Lin raises some criticisms of the NTP study in this and an earlier paper (1, 2), he recognizes the importance of this research to the field and the implications of the study findings for public health (2).

He praised the FDA and the NTP for the initiation and conduct of the study and emphasized the need for the “U.S. government to step in and conduct such research programs and not leave the matter entirely to the cell-phone industry” due to his concern that “The wireless industry has had nearly free reign to develop and distribute cellular mobile phones and related RF devices as they see fit.”

Dr. Lin was one of fourteen experts convened by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences to review the National Toxicology Program’s cell phone radiation study in March of this year. He is a professor of electrical engineering, bioengineering, physiology, and biophysics at the University of Illinois, Chicago. His publications include ten books, hundreds of papers and book chapters, and he has made hundreds of presentations at professional conferences. He has served on the editorial board of fifteen professional journals and has received numerous awards and honors throughout his distinguished career.

Following are key passages from Dr. Lin’s paper (1):
