Does Radiation From 5G Cell Phones Increase The Risk Of Cancer? Expert Answers

News 18  

The introduction of the 5G network in India is not without its share of controversies. Mobile phones made an entry into the Indian market around the late 90s and ever since then, there have been debates as to whether radio frequency emitted from the mobile phone tower can cause brain cancer. Dr Delnaaz Dabhar of a famous hospital in Mumbai says that this debate has always been an issue but the radiation emanating from mobile phones is non-ionising radio waves, just like a microwave emits waves. Dr Dabhar said that it is wrong to attribute the increasing use of cellular phones to the increasing number of cancer cases and has debunked the theory of the 5G network being a threat. Only one UK-based study sparked alarm when it revealed that cell phone radiation can lead to glioblastoma multiforme, a type of brain tumour, although no solid conclusion was arrived at.
