Food and Drug Administration Review of Published Literature

The Food and Drug Administration continually monitors scientific evidence regarding the impact of radiofrequency energy and human health. In February 2020 they published a “Review of Published Literature between 2008 and 2018 of Relevance to Radiofrequency Radiation and Cancer.” According to the report: “Based on the FDA’s ongoing evaluation, the available epidemiological and cancer incidence data continues to support the Agency’s determination that there are no quantifiable adverse health effects in humans caused by exposures at or under the current cell phone exposure limits.”
