Mobile Phones are a Health Hazard.

Good morning Ladies and Gentlemen.

Have you ever think that phones that you always bring can affect your health?

What do you think about that question? Have you ever know there is somebody got

tumor because of something that you never realize before?

1. Mobile phones help us to always get the newest information, get information

easier; can make us always stay in touch with our beloved people. Beside those

advantages, there are some disadvantages that we never realize before because of 

asymptomatic diseases.

2. Now, what can make mobile phone is a health hazard? a. because of the signal

that can affect our tissue because of the radiation process3. What are the hazards? The diseases?

4. How is the mechanism of the radiation process?

5. How are the management and the prevention to decrease the hazard?

Some scientific studies have linked use of mobiles toheadaches, memory loss and cancer, while the industry claimsthat they are perfectly safe.

Roger Coghill, a specialist in bioelectromagnetics, who runs anindependent laboratory in Gwent, has long campaigned for mobile phones to carry a health warning said, "I do not see thatmobile phones used normally pose a health problem, but some peopleare using them for 20-30 minutes or more at time, and there isoverwhelming scientific evidence that there is a hazard to health fromthat kind of use”

A survey of 500 users that shows that 12% of users use their phonesfor more than 20 minutes a day, and that 1.8% use them for more thantwo hours a day. It is that 1.8% that we are worried about - that isabout 250,000 people who are being put at risk of serious ill health.

Summary:In conclusion, because of we are cannot separated from the mobile phones as their 

advantages, we just can decrease our utilizing of the mobile phones. So, we are

Solution:

"My advice is not to get panicked, and to use your phone normally, butto restrict calls to around five minutes a day.

Mobile phone manufacturers should have funded research into thatquestion before they put them on the market - if they werepharmaceutical products they would have to have been pre-tested.

Committed to openness 

"The industry is committed to being open about this matter. We take this issueseriously, and we are concerned if our customers are concerned.

"But the National Radiological Protection Board and the International Commission onNon-Ionising Radiation Protection set the guidelines that the industry follows, and allmobile phones sold in the UK are designed, built and tested to these standards whichtake account of all the scientific research into this issue.

"It is perfectly legitimate that the public should be concerned, and we welcomeresponsible public interest but we do not get headlines about the many studies thatcome up with no link between mobile phones and ill health.

"My advice to people who are worried is that they can always use an earpiece, whichcan be very convienient in a hands free environment - although they do not need onefor health reasons.

believe that there is no link between use of mobile phones and any adverse humanhealth effect.

"This is based on many years of research. The mobile phone industry is a globalindustry and research into the safety of phones is done on a global scale - probably$60m has been spent on this particular issue.

"You have to look at the totality of science, and when you do you will find that thereis no evidence of a link between use of mobile phones and ill health.

"The FEI welcomes all good peer reviewed science, including Dr Preece's work inBristol, in which, we note, he failed to find any link between mobile phone usage andmemory loss despite the enormous amount of publicity we have seen in the last fewweeks.

"The one effect he did find was that choice reaction times were reduced by four percent after exposure to radiation from analogue mobile phones, but this contrasts withother studies which have found a 20% variation in reaction times when no mobilephone usage has been involved.
