Can I minimize my RF exposure?
If you are concerned about RF, there are several simple steps you can take
to minimize your RF exposure. You can, of course, reduce your talk time.
You can place more distance between your body and the source of the RF,
as the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. The FDA/FCC
website states that "hands-free kits can be used with wireless devices for
convenience and comfort. These systems reduce the absorption of RF
energy in the head because the device, which is the source of the RF
emissions, will not be placed against the head. On the other hand, if the
device is mounted against the waist or other part of the body during use,
then that part of the body will absorb more RF energy. Wireless devices
marketed in the U.S. are required to meet safety requirements regardless
of whether they are used against the head or against the body. Either
configuration should result in compliance with the safety limit." Also, if you
use your wireless device while in a car, you can use a device with an
antenna on the outside of the vehicle. You should also read and follow your
wireless device manufacturer's instructions for the safe operation of your
device.
Do wireless devices pose any special risks to children?
The FDA/FCC website states that "the scientific evidence does not show a
danger to users of wireless communication devices, including children."
The FDA/FCC website further states that "some groups sponsored by
other national governments have advised that children be discouraged from
using wireless devices at all". For example, the Stewart Report from the
United Kingdom ["UK"] made such a recommendation in December 2000.
In this report a group of independent experts noted that no evidence exists
that using a device causes brain tumors or other ill effects. [The UK's]
recommendation to limit device use by children was strictly precautionary;
it was not based on scientific evidence that any health hazard exists. A
