Rocketflip. www.emfnews.org www.emfnews.org A new study by Hardell, published in June 2010, found that using a mobile phone for more than 10 years more than doubled the risk of developing a brain tumour, and the more hours the phone was used, the higher the risk. For those who had used their phone for more than 2000 hours in total since they first started using the phone, the risk was more than tripled. More than 2000 hours on a cordless phone was also associated with nearly a doubling of brain tumour risk. This has serious consequences for our young people, who will exceed the 2000 hours since they first began to use a phone pretty quickly. A previous article by Hardell & Carlberg, published in 2009, showed that the people at greatest risk were those who had first used a mobile phone under the age of 20. Say half an hour a day on average (low for many young people). That's 3½ hours a week (at least). 175 hours a year will add up to 2000 hours in 10 or 11 years after first using the phone, increasing the risk of developing a malignant brain tumour by more than 3 times.
