10-100 nanoW/cm^2 microwaves may cause cancer??

Short latency period??? Very low power levels?? Surely there must be some
mistake?


Cancer in Radar Technicians Exposed to RF/Microwave Radiation: Sentinel
Episodes.

Richter E, Berman T, Ben-Michael E, Laster R, Westin JB

Int J Occup Environ Health 6(3):187-193, 2000


Controversy exists concerning the health risks from exposures to
radiofrequency/microwave irradiation (RF/MW). The authors report
exposure-effect relationships in sentinel patients and their co-workers,
who were technicians with high levels of exposure to RF/MW radiation.

Information about exposures of patients with sentinel tumors was obtained
from interviews, medical records, and technical sources. One patient was
a member of a cohort of 25 workers with six tumors.

The authors estimated relative risks for cancer in this group and latency
periods for a larger group of self-reported individuals. Index patients
with melanoma of the eye, testicular cancer, nasopharyngioma,
non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and breast cancer were in the 20-37-year age
group.

Information about work conditions suggested prolonged exposures to high
levels of RF/MW radiation that produced risks for the entire body.
Clusters involved many different types of tumors. Latency periods were
extremely brief in index patients and a larger self-reported group.

The findings suggest that young persons exposed to high levels of RF/MW
radiation for long periods in settings where preventive measures were lax
were at increased risk for cancer. Very short latency periods suggest high
risks from high-level exposures. Calculations derived from a linear model
of dose-response suggest the need to prevent exposures in the range of
10-100 muw/cm2.

Yes there is a mistake. It says 'short latency' & 'high level exposure'.
No mention of very low power levels.

Lenny please learn to read. Once you have mastered that then attempt to
understand what you read.

Nothing new here.

No need to worry about all this radiation, help is at hand.

does anyone think lenny's ever had a girlfriend? he just seems to post
random scare stories, usually based on bad science and ignorance, maybe he
needs to get a life?
