9. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to
radio frequency energy from my wireless phone?
If there is a risk from these products – and at this point we do
not know that there is – it is probably very small. But if you are
concerned about avoiding even potential risks, you can take a
few simple steps to minimize your exposure to radio frequency
energy (RF). Since time is a key factor in how much exposure a
person receives, reducing the amount of time spent using a
wireless phone will reduce RF exposure. If you must conduct
extended conversations by wireless phone every day, you could
place more distance between your body and the source of the
RF, since the exposure level drops off dramatically with
distance. For example, you could use a headset and carry the
wireless phone away from your body or use a wireless phone
connected to a remote antenna. Again, the scientific data do not
demonstrate that wireless phones are harmful. But if you are
concerned about the RF exposure from these products, you can
use measures like those described above to reduce your RF
exposure from wireless phone use.
10. What about children using wireless phones?
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of
wireless phones, including children and teenagers. If you want
to take steps to lower exposure to radio frequency energy (RF),
the measures described above would apply to children and
teenagers using wireless phones. Reducing the time of wireless
phone use and increasing the distance between the user and
the RF source will reduce RF exposure.
Some groups sponsored by other national governments have
advised that children be discouraged from using wireless
phones at all. For example, the government in the United
