Cell Phone Industry Actions
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA regulatory actions, the FDA has urged the cell
phone industry to take a number of steps, including the following:
•
Support-needed research on possible biological effects of RF for the type of signal emitted by cell phones;
•
Design cell phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user; and
•
Cooperate in providing users of cell phones with the current information on cell phone use and human health
concerns.
The FDA also is working with voluntary standard-setting bodies such as the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP), and others to assure that safety standards continue to adequately protect the public.
