Now they are just becoming another punch line in the continuing UN joke.     My pediatrician daughter just returned from a medical mission to Haiti.  The three doctors saw over four hundred children who had NEVER seen a doctor before.     Biggest issue - malnutrition and its many complications.    What the hell is WHO doing, wasting resources on this kind of crap when there are so many REAL health issues in the world?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[rann948]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 27th 2009 5:44PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cell Phones Cause Cancer, Says World Health Organization]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/10/27/cell-phones-cause-cancer-says-world-health-organization/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/10/27/cell-phones-cause-cancer-says-world-health-organization/</guid><description><![CDATA[Astute of the WHO to realize that close-range microwaves kill brain cells.  If you are skeptical, try a simple test: fully charge 2 cellphones, then call from one to the other. Place the "connected" phones upright 10 inches apart, with the speaker/earphones facing each other. In the middle, place an uncooked egg in a ceramic egg cup (the kind used to serve hard boiled eggs).  THE EGG WILL BE FULLY COOKED IN ABOUT 1 HOUR. So if 2 cellphones can cook an egg in 1 hour, imagine how many brain cells can be "cooked" by talking on 1 cellphone for 2 hours...get the picture here? Also, even if you are not talking on your cellphone, if your cellphone has a signal, as shown by the "bars" on the cellphone screen, than you are being exposed to microwaves via the nearest cellphone tower. Cordless phones also emit microwaves... Rann, IMHO, this actually IS a valid health issue...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kitty22cape]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 27th 2009 6:22PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cell Phones Cause Cancer, Says World Health Organization]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/10/27/cell-phones-cause-cancer-says-world-health-organization/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/10/27/cell-phones-cause-cancer-says-world-health-organization/</guid><description><![CDATA[What happens if I smoke while I am on the cel phone?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Yehuda Hamer]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 28th 2009 5:35AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cell Phones Cause Cancer, Says World Health Organization]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/10/27/cell-phones-cause-cancer-says-world-health-organization/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/10/27/cell-phones-cause-cancer-says-world-health-organization/</guid><description><![CDATA[This is how I read the headline:  Cell phones cause cancer, says Who?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kn]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 27th 2009 10:55PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cell Phones Cause Cancer, Says World Health Organization]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/10/27/cell-phones-cause-cancer-says-world-health-organization/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/10/27/cell-phones-cause-cancer-says-world-health-organization/</guid><description><![CDATA["Secondly, there is no way to differentiate the effects of cell phone use to other forms of electromagnetic radiation (such as microwaves and televisions)."<br>Uh huh.  No one holds a microwave oven or a TV directly against the side of thier heads for a couple of hours a day.   Cell phones are microwave transmitters.  That is how they operate.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[archrunnr]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 28th 2009 1:13AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cell Phones Cause Cancer, Says World Health Organization]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/10/27/cell-phones-cause-cancer-says-world-health-organization/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/10/27/cell-phones-cause-cancer-says-world-health-organization/</guid><description><![CDATA[As with any study, there is no way to show causality (and to do so would be wrong wrong wrong). Do these people develop tumors because they use cell phones? Or do they use cell phones because they're predisposed to develop brain tumors. <br><br>I'm willing to believe that a portion of cell phone users have malignant growths where their brains should be. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Lady A]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 28th 2009 4:34PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cell Phones Cause Cancer, Says World Health Organization]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/10/27/cell-phones-cause-cancer-says-world-health-organization/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/10/27/cell-phones-cause-cancer-says-world-health-organization/</guid><description><![CDATA[WHO is reviving the debate with a new press release from 31/5/2011<br>they now classify cell phones as carcinogenic .<br><br><a href="http://cellphones-radiation-ratings.com/review/world-health-orgenization-classifies-cell-phones-as-carcinogenic-to-humans/" rel="nofollow">http://cellphones-radiation-ratings.com/review/world-health-orgenization-classifies-cell-phones-as-carcinogenic-to-humans/</a>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[simaecru]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 2nd 2011 8:30AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
