The
followings are new studies published in the month of January 2013
which show biological effects of electromagnetic radiation at
cellphone, WiFi, powerline intensities.
ALL
these biological effects are being denied by Health Canada's and
US FCC's outdated "safety" standard because they claim that if the
radiation doesn't heat up one's body, nothing else happens! They use
a plastic head called S.A.M. (Specific Anthropomorphic Mannequin)
filled with fluid to do their "heating" test. It is only
tested for 6 minutes, not chronic exposure as in real life, and the test
has no provision for any biological change except temperature
change.
The
S.A.M. head is sized for a 220 lb and 6'2" American soldier.

“The
authors concluded that the results show some support for a positive
association between childhood
leukemia risk and
paternal occupation involving [electromagnetic] social contact.
Additionally, the study provided additional evidence for
higher occupational [electromagnetic] social class being a risk
factor for childhood
leukemia. ”
