AUVA Report 2009

The Austrian AUVA insurance company commissioned a renowned team of researchers from the Vienna Medical University to take another look at biological effects associated with cell phone radiation.

Since affected cells include especially those that are metabolically active, children and youth seem to be most susceptible to the possible health effects.
