New York, June 15, 2010. According to a presentation today by L. Lloyd Morgan, B.Sc. at the 32nd Annual Bioelectromagnetics Society meeting in Seoul, Korea, the risk of brain tumors from cell phone use in the Interphone study is significantly higher than was recently reported in the International Journal of Epidemiology.

SAN FRANCISCO - In this city known for producing laws both path-breaking and contentious, legislators have forcefully stepped into another debate - his time over the potential danger of cell phone use.

With the Board of Supervisors' 10-1 vote in favor of an ordinance Mayor Gavin Newsom has indicated he will sign, San Francisco has waded into the as-yet unresolved debate over the relationship between long-term use of cell phones and health problems such as brain tumors.

Today, for the first time, a Labour Tribunal recognized the occupational origin of the disease of a man who for ten years was a company executive in Brescia. He worked for long hours using a cell phone and a cordless phone. The man, Innocenzo Marcolini, 57, had a benign tumor on the trigeminal nerve. Surgery saved him but the consequences on his quality of life are terrible.
