Poll: Do You Believe Cell Phones Can Cause Cancer?

Wednesday February 28, 2007
Can cell phones cause brain (or other kinds of) cancer? The question pops up regularly in the news. Here, a study claims that nothing proves they cause any cancer. There, another scientist is convinced that cell phones cause cancers, and then a new, contradictory study, surfaces. That's enough to just leave us... speachless. I personally consider myself an "agnostic", I tend to think cell phones are probably harmless but I keep an eye open for new studies.

So, Do You Think Cell Phones Cause Cancer?

a) Yes, and that's why I don't have a cell phone
b) Yes, but I still use a cell phone, can't live without 'em!
c) Yes, and that's why I only rarely use my cell phone, just when necessary
d) I think cell phones can increase the risk of cancer, but they are just one factor among others
e) No, I don't think cell phones can cause cancer
