Do scientists know everything about mobile phones and health?
No, and research is continuing. There is little research on the effects of using mobile phones for more than 10 years, so it is as yet impossible to say for certain that long-term use is 100% safe. There is also little research on the effects of mobile phones on children, who are more sensitive than adults to many environmental agents, such as lead pollution and sunlight. Government advice is to play safe and limit mobile phone use by children.
