It is possible that cellular phones are
causing brain tumors, but the likelihood is small.
The phones emit very low EMF levels and
exposure to them is intermittent. It is possible
that a person with a brain tumor who uses a
cellular phone is running a significant risk that
the tumor will grow faster than it otherwise
would. As yet, however, there is no evidence to
support the view that there is a reasonable
probability of either.
