show an association between exposure
to radiofrequency (RF) from cell phones
and adverse health outcomes. Still the
scientific community does recommend
conducting additional research to
address gaps in knowledge. That
research is being conducted around the
world and FDA continues to monitor
developments in this field. You can
access the joint FDA/FCC website at
http://www.fda.gov (under "c"in the
subject index, select Cell Phones >

FDA toll-free at (888) 463-6332 or (888)
INFO-FDA. In June 2000, the FDA
entered into a cooperative research and
development agreement through which
additional scientific research is being
conducted. The FCC issued its own
website publication stating that "there
is no scientific evidence that proves that
wireless phone usage can lead to cancer
or a variety of other problems, including
headaches, dizziness or memory
loss."This publication is available at
