False.
In the article, the Daily Mail references Joel Moskowitz’s study on the connection and correlation between cell phone usage and cancerous tumors, mainly in the head and neck. While Joel Moskowitz is a respected UC Berkeley Center for Family and Community Health director, his study was biased, inconclusive, and unreliable. As the Los Angeles Times discusses, eight out of the 23 epidemiological studies conducted showed there was a ten to thirty percent increased risk of cancerous tumors with chronic cell phone users. Moskowitz admitted that 15 low-quality studies resulted in no associated, negative association, or protective effect. Additionally, seven of those eight studies were conducted by Dr. Lennart Hardell, an oncologist in Sweden. Hardell’s studies are familiar with criticisms from peers in the field; in 2002, his research on wireless cell phones and cancer was debunked by the European Journal of Cancer Prevention for its methodological flaws. Overall, Moskowitz and Hardell’s research on cancer and cell phones is inconsistent at best. Currently, the FDA states that there is no consistent evidence that the low levels of non-ionizing radiation emitted by cell phones, radios, and televisions increase cancer risks in humans.
