Institute of Engineering & Technology talks about mobile phone health effects

The IET - the Institute of Engineering and Technology - has published a document explaining its position on the possible health effects of mobile phones and electricity pylons to health. It has reviewed scientific papers from the last two years and points out that scientists have been unable to replicate some results from high-profile studies, suggesting that the original research wasn't investigated sufficiently before publication. The IET says the absence of robust new evidence of harmful effects of electromagnetic fields is reassuring and is consistent with findings over the past decade. [PDF document]
