"Researchers with the renowned Ramazzini Institute (RI) in Italy announce that a large-scale, lifetime study (PDF) of lab animals exposed to environmental levels of cell tower radiation developed cancer. The RI study also found increases in malignant brain (glial) tumors in female rats and precancerous conditions including Schwann cells hyperplasia in both male and female rats. A study of much higher levels of cell phone radiofrequency (RF) radiation, from the U.S. National Toxicology Program (NTP), has also reported finding the same unusual cancer called Schwannoma of the heart in male rats treated at the highest dose."
Cement causes cancer. You're literally fucked no matter what so who cares. What are you going to do?
Owen Ortiz
No more BTFO than anyone else that lives near cell towers.
Ryder Bennett
It'll save us all, actually.
Camden Harris
fuck man I should get some of those but I'm too lazy to go down the to store do they even still sell those
Ayden Miller
>Ramazzini Institute in Italy >U.S. National Toxicology Program Could you give us a trustworthy source?
Adrian Evans
Wtf I hate cell towers now, guess I'll move to bumfuck nowhere with no coverage
Bentley Gray
They're pretty popular in Belgium. The ones here are made in Germany, I don't trust them.
Chase Wright
Does the atmosphere blocks radiowaves from the space? Because if not, we are simply condemned since radiowaves happens since big bang.
David Walker
nice try. there was no radio till 1894
Jackson Ward
reading this dumb shit, we're all dying of cancer now. thanks op
Asher Brown
How near do you have to be to the cell phone tower to receive those 50 V/m?
Xavier Hughes
>if you exposed a mouse to 10^8 times more wifi radiation in a single burst than a human will be exposed to in their entire life, it has a 2% higher chance of getting cancer!
This is literally the definition of bad science. It's like making someone drink water until they die and then saying water is poisonous and should be avoided.
Tyler Sullivan
>Too lazy to spend 30 seconds reading >Makes a post taking 45 seconds
Gabriel Flores
I don't know many people who spend a lot of time talking on a cellphone let alone holding it up to their ear instead of using headphones or the Bluetooth in their car.
Joshua Stewart
>he doesn't know water is poisonous >he still drinks water
Wyatt King
Bluetooth gives you even more cancer.
Zachary Harris
>potassium in bananas >causes cancer
Wait is this actually a thing? Or simple sarcasm?
Sebastian Adams
Now I love phones now.
Noah Ramirez
does this apply to cordless landline phones as well?
at work we've switched over to cordless VOIP phones and are expected to have one for each department we work in, so sometimes I am carrying around 2 or 3 handsets.
I don't wanna get ass cancer from a fucking telephone.
Bananas and most other potassium bearing things have a potassium isotope, K-40. It gives you more radiation than living within 50 miles of a nuclear power plant for a year, give or take. Not that that would be a lot, nuclear power plants are cucked with regulations because hippies draw their understanding of nuclear power from the Simpsons and would never accept anything less than demanding extremely low radiation levels going outside
Cooper Watson
If you trace it back, you find that:
1) This is a press release that was picked up by a minor news service, then picked up by other news services.
2) The original source is a web sight: ehtrust.org/ [ehtrust.org] if you go to the About page, you see that website is headed by someone with a new book out. Guess what the book is about...
3) Yes, the book is about power lines causing cancer. Funny how the same person that has already published a book about something that has been thoroughly discredited is now claiming a study proves her right.
4) The websight mentions no other person except their own 'head', but mentions her several times. It has two addresses listed, one of which is a po box in Wyoming, the other is a home in Wyoming. No office.
5) She is a real doctor, but is famous for this EMF controversy.
In other words, the study is not to be trusted, and the news release is fake news, at least until a real news agency can thoroughly check something rather than just accept the word of someone that already has a reputation for accepting junk science

>t. bluetard
this is about cell towers, not cell phones
Andrew Williams
You're boring, unwatching this thread
Landon Lee
>this is about cell towers, not cell phones same wavelengths dumbass
>Forme rare di cancro delle cellule nervose individuate anche nello studio sperimentale dell'Istituto Ramazzini di Bologna. Ma la rivista rimuove l'articolo
Last sentence being important >Ma la rivista rimuove l'articolo which translates to >But the magazine removes the article
Brandon Perry
cell towers have much higher power than a cell phone, retard
Christopher Edwards
Different energy, nigger
Brayden Robinson
>No more BTFO than anyone else that lives near cell towers. This, this so much. And it worries me, has for years. Here's why: Let's just assume that cell towers are dangerous, ignore research for and against and just blindly assume that They Are Dangerous. Then think about this: What percentage of the population are NOT in an area with cell tower coverage right now? Very few. And how long has this been the case? Not very long. So it is too early to tell if there are some really bad long-term effects and they will affect everyone if there are some. This also makes it very hard to point to celltowers as a cause for anything; if 30% of the population gets sick or have some issue then it's kind of hard to point out a cause everyone's exposed to.
Yes. Cordless VOIP phones so use small amounts of microwave radiation. So does WIFI. But the output is wildly different. A cell phone tower will typically output something between 10-50W depending on the area. Your cellphone will send a 1-2W signal to your cell tower. A typical WIFI router will output 10-30mW, that's mW not W. Cordless landline phones output less simply because they communicate with something's that's very near you (same room, next room) while a cell phone tower is typically far away.
"Studies have been performed looking at the cumulative doses of radiation people are exposed to and the resulting incidence of various cancers. The lowest radiation dose per year that can be clearly linked to an increased risk of developing cancer is 50 mSv, or 500,000 in Banana Equivalent Dose. By a nice coincidence, this is almost exactly one banana per minute." No, bananas do not cause cancer.
Caleb Diaz
IT'S IN THE BANANA?
IT'S IN THE WATER TOO?
Brandon White
Only op here is cancer
Jaxson Phillips
>some frequency at low power isn't harmful >therefore that frequency at all power levels is safe
higher energy = shorter wavelength you fucking bint
Liam Wilson
That's how quantum physics works, idiot. >some magnetism isn't harmful >therefore magnetism at all power levels is safe
Protip: Mega-magnets are perfectly safe
Noah Ross
quantum * is fake bullshit made by jews
Isaiah Davis
MAKING THE DAMN FROGS GAY
Brody Miller
what does this mean for someone who isn't a rat, such as myself?
also, how did they get those rats to use cellphones?
Asher Hall
Then dont make your house out of cement. If you like living then do things so you don't want to die early, it's not hard. You're fucked no matter what? Is that your attitude? Then kill yourself, scum
>doesn't make a point
Life defends and works against cancer. That's a fact.
Samuel James
>He doesn't know about the frequent rat posters that infest this board
