FDA Confirms There's No Evidence That Cell Phones Cause Cancer
Right now, Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL), Samsung (OTC: SSNLF), and others are working to develop 5G smartphones that will work on the next-generation mobile networks being built by Verizon Communications (NYSE: VZ), AT&T (NYSE: T), T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS), and Sprint (NYSE: S).
All of those companies and their investments in new mobile tech just got an indirect boost from the Food and Drug Administration. This week, the agency published the results of its review of more than a decade's worth of studies on how exposure to radiofrequency radiation (RFR) affects humans. The report concludes that "there is insufficient evidence to support a causal association between RFR exposure and tumorigenesis."
In other words, the FDA found nothing to support the idea that the type of radiation that cellphones emit causes cancer.
