An International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) working group reviewed hundreds of scientific articles, and then reached the conclusion that current evidence is sufficiently strong to support a classification of possibly carcinogenic to humans for radio-frequency electromagnetic fields including those employed by cellular mobile telephones.
