专业人士呼吁对致癌手机采取行动

    Thursday, June 02, 2011

    癌症专家表示,政府须就手机与癌症的关联展开更多研究,以便人们能在知情情况下加以选择。

    世界卫生组织属下的国际癌症研究署日前发布报告,称手机有可能致癌,增加罹患脑癌风险。由于香港是全世界手机普及率最高的地区之一,达到193.2%,许多人拥有不止一部手机,因此该报告对香港意义重大。

    电讯管理局数据显示,全港有超过1370万手机用户,约半数使用智能手机上网服务。

    该报告分析了多篇关于手机使用与癌症关联之科学论文,之后得出上述结论。其中一项研究显示,手机会释放出射频电磁场,导致十年内每天打手机30分钟的重度用户罹患神经胶质瘤(一种脑癌)的风险增加40%

    尽管该研究署表示,这些数据有限且不充分,但仍足以证明手机存在致癌风险。

 

    Action urged on 'cancer phones'

WHO report that mobiles may be carcinogenic spurs calls for more government research in Hong Kong

The government must carry out more research on the link between mobile phones and cancer so that people can make informed choices, according to a cancer specialist and the man who introduced the first smartphone to Hong Kong. 
 
Their calls come a day after a World Health Organisation report was released saying mobile phones were "possibly carcinogenic to humans", causing an increased risk of brain cancer. The report carries major implications for Hong Kong, where the mobile phone penetration rate is one of the highest in the world at 193.2 per cent - and many people own more than one phone.

Official figures from the Office of the Telecommunications Authority (Ofta) show there are more than 13.7 million mobile phone subscribers, with about half signed up to internet services through smartphones.

The report from the WHO's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) was based on an analysis of scientific articles on mobile phone use and cancer. One of the studies showed that radiofrequency electromagnetic fields, such as those emitted by mobile phones, caused a 40 per cent higher risk of glioma, a type of brain cancer, in heavy users (30 minutes a day for 10 years).

While the group said the data was "limited" and "inadequate", there was enough evidence to show "some risk" between cellphones and cancer.
