Scientists conclude the review does not assure wireless safety, and should not be used to set public health policy

‘A Letter to the Editor published in the journal Environment International by the International Commission on the Biological Effects of Electromagnetic Fields (ICBE-EMF) concludes that a recently published World Health Organization (WHO) systematic review and meta-analysis on cell phone radiofrequency radiation (RFR) and cancer risk by Karipidis et al. (2024) isscientifically flawed and does not provide a reliable assessment of the evidence on brain cancer risk associated with the use of cell phones and other wireless technologies. The ICBE-EMF are experts in researching the health effects of RFR from wireless devices and infrastructure including cell phones, Wi-Fi and cell towers.

ICBE-EMF’s scientific leadership points to numerous significant flaws in the WHO review that combine to understate the cancer risk from wireless exposure and undermine the validity of the study’s conclusions, raising serious concerns about its impact on public health policy.’
