French Health Minister Warns Against Excessive Cell Phone Use

i am a 11 year old who is on the phone 24/7 even in school.I can admit that even though i am on the cell phone 24/7 i still manage to keep my grades up i think that children who r too hooked to the cellphone can cant even go without a cell phone for an hour are the ones that need help.I understand what the doctors are saying but i have to say cancer is already out and over 40% of people have it and we are going to dye some dye some day whether its tomorrow or next year or whenever.All I have to say is if u cant go an hour/ a day without a cell phone you need help badly.

je suis une personne de 11 ans qui est sur le téléphone 24/7 même dans l'école. Je peux l'admettre. bien que je sois sur le téléphone cellulaire 24/7 je réussis toujours à continuer mes qualités je crois que les enfants que r aussi accroché au cellphone peut retourner même vont sans un téléphone cellulaire depuis une heure sont ceux qui ont besoin de l'aide. Je comprends que les docteurs disent mais je dois dire que le cancer est sorti déjà et plus de 40 % des gens l'ont et nous allons teindre plus tard si son demain ou l'année prochaine ou chaque fois que. Tout ce que je dois dire est si les paroles creuses u vont une heure / un jour sans un téléphone cellulaire vous avez besoin de l'aide mal.

yea, like that will ever happen. there is no way that people will give up cell phones for good. or alteast im not going to. until they "prove" that it does give you cancer, its with me all the time.

Listen to a Frenchman? Give me a break. A country that has lost more wars than can be counted? A country who just bought two new sets for their army - one for parades and the other for surrenders. Theyhave a number of brand new rifles for sale - only dropped once.

Sorry, but everything we eat, drink, breathe & do causes cancer now days !!! Can't hide or protect ourselves anymore !!!

I discovered this past year that the cause of my depression, anxiety, and panic attacks is what Europeans are calling 'microwave sickness'. I spent 15 years on antidepressants and anti-anxiety medications essentially for radiation poisoning. Both the cell phone and the healthcare industries ought to be ashamed.

My ex-husband, a heavy cell phone user, had a brain tumor removed last year. I won't even use a cordless phone now, let alone a cell phone.

If you think you're okay with your "occasional" cell phone use, read the bioinitiative report, and think again.

Not proven unsafe does not equal safe.

First it was pagers and people said,"I would be lost without my pager"..now cell phones and the traffic is slower(recent poll done shows this to be true)now "I can't imagine my life without a cell phone".I do not have or own one and get along just fine. Just because things can make life easier doesn't mean one should be a slave to it..TECHNOLOGY!!!!!!

hey eric you love your cell phone so much why don't you stick it up your ass.

I never had the need to own or use a cellphone. It adds too much stress. People who use it also take it to the bathroom with them. That's gross because even if they wash their hands, they don't wash the keys to the cellphone. Guys who use it are just too effeminate as I overhear conversations how so and so hurt their feelings. It probably makes guys gay anyway. Comic book artist Michael Turner, the creator of Fathom, had to have part of his hip bone removed, and was a cell phone user. He had his phone always on hip hip. I hope that they don't take pay phones away. I'd rather live the old fashioned way as you're playing russian roulette as cancer is very tough to beat. I'm in tip top shape and have a lot to live for. I don't want a cell phone in any part of my life.

Getting back to cell phones I notice the guys at work who do have them have girlfriends on the side while they're married. They get these calls on their cell at work and they work less than a person that doesn't have one. If their spouse got rid of their cellphones, then they'd have to dump their girlfriend because there'd be no way for them to get in touch with them.

I am one of the 3-million Americans who have to deal with epilepsy. And as much as there is known about this neurological malfunction, more is yet to be discovered. For instance, I've noticed that after I've extensively used my cell phone (always in my right hand, next to my right ear), I often get intensive headaches. Sometimes thereafter, no matter how short my call has been, an epileptic seizure in one of many forms, can occur. Will neurologists listen to such reports from even we better-informed patients? Very few.

Jim, you are a very typical example of that dullard genus, The-Ugly-American. You most obviously have no substantive understanding of human history, and are most obviously tragically parochial in your manner of thinking. Vacca foeda.

One has to questions the long-term affects of anything you use on a daily basis. The one thing is that cell phones are terribly low powered devices, certainly this must enter into the query of cell-phone use and health.

Ralph, you're stupid.How does a cell phone make a man gay?

well if the human race stopped doing everthing we have been told is bad for us we would have died of starvation and bordem years ago

If people want to gamble on the fact that cell phones might cause cancer, then let them. What I object to are the idiots that use them while driving. When will we ever enact a law that states that you must park your vehicle while using a cell phone? They are responsible for thousands of deaths by automobile.

um...ya right "using ur cell phone gives you cancer" haha untill they can prove that i always have my cell with me!
~sam~

cancer is a virus people!!!! wake up...

This is from a Research Physician...Electrical signals of various frequencies, wavelength and power fill almost every space on this planet. If you can get a signal for your cell phone or your Internet connection, you are being penetrated by various radio frequency signals propagated through space. A large variety of these signals, even small signals, DO have biological effects and consequences at the cellular level.

Next thing you know they'll tell you cigarettes cause cancer and then expect you to stop smoking....
