Safety
exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. For example, you could
use a headset and carry the wireless device away from your body or use a
wireless device connected to a remote antenna. Again, the scientific data
does not demonstrate that wireless devices 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 device use.
10. What about children using wireless devices?
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless
devices, including children and teenagers. If you want to take steps to
lower exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy, the measures described
above would apply to children and teenagers using wireless devices.
Reducing the time of wireless device 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 devices at all. For example, the
government in the United Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such a
recommendation in December 2000. They noted that no evidence exists
that using a wireless device causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their
recommendation to limit wireless device use by children was strictly
precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that any health
hazard exists.
11. What about wireless device interference with medical equipment?
Radio Frequency (RF) energy from wireless devices can interact with some
electronic devices. For this reason, the FDA helped develop a detailed test
method to measure Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) of implanted
cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators from wireless devices.
This test method is now part of a standard sponsored by the Association
for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI). The final draft, a
joint effort by the FDA, medical device manufacturers, and many other
groups, was completed in late 2000. This standard will allow manufacturers
to ensure that cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from wireless
device EMI.
