[quote=Anonymous]Lets pull out the key phrases here from the EPA The author also spoke with Senior Scientist Norbert Hankin, of theEPA Office os Radiation and Indoor Air and Chairman of RFIAWG. The writer discussed possible wireless portable classroom scenarios with Mr. Hankin. When questioned about the health and safety concerns of the wireless computer in the classroom scenario, Mr. Hankin said: “In my personal opinion, I wouldn’t do it.” (Emphasis added.) He further stated that there are animal studies showing health issues with short-term exposures to non-ionizing RF/MW radiation. Mr. Hankin expressed concern about children who would be close to transmitting antenna(s) (wireless-laptops, work stations, and base stations) and exposed to prolonged low intensity transmissions. He likened it to being in a room of cellphones running all day long. “In my personal opinion, I wouldn’t do it.” [/quote]
