Christopher Portier, former Director of the National Toxicology Program noted, 鈥淭his is the best designed animal study ever conducted on this topic.鈥�
Ron Melnick, who led the original NTP study design team, confirmed information leaked by unnamed sources at the National Institute of Health familiar with the study, 鈥淭he experiment has been done and, after extensive reviews, the consensus is that the same tumors increased in animals that have also been found in some human studies.鈥�
鈥淭his is extremely powerful evidence,鈥� stated Robert Morris MD PhD, Environmental Health Trust (EHT) Senior Medical Advisor. 鈥淔or more than two decades, many have dismissed cancer risks from cell phones because conventional understanding of the effect of microwaves would suggest there is no mechanism for this to occur. That argument is officially dead.鈥�
Evidence has mounted since 2011, when the World Health Organization鈥檚 International Agency for Research on Cancer deemed radiation from cell phones and other wireless transmitting devices a 鈥減ossible human carcinogen.鈥� Added EHT President Devra Davis PhD MPH, 鈥淓very compound known to cause cancer in humans also produces it in animals when well studied. We have to stop experimenting on ourselves and our children and start a vigorous discussion of what we can do right now to prevent a potential public health disaster while we still have time to do so.鈥�
Melnick also told Microwave 麻豆传媒, 鈥淭hese data redefine the cell phone radiation controversy. This is a major public health concern.鈥�
