Mobile phones are possible cancer-causing agents, says report
The classification was issued in Lyon, France, by the International Agency for Research on Cancer after a review of dozens of published studies. The agency is an arm of the World Health Organisation and its assessment now goes to WHO and other health agencies for possible guidance on mobile phone use.
Classifying agents as “possibly carcinogenic” does not mean they automatically cause cancer and some experts said the ruling should not change people’s mobile phone habits.
