Radiation from all mobile phones is dangerous for people, especially children. Rospotrebnadzor reported this to socialbites.ca and commented on the recent statement of the French government regarding its intention to ban the sale of iPhone 12 in the country due to the high level of electromagnetic radiation from the smartphone.
On September 12, 2023, the laboratory of the French National Frequency Agency (ANFR) revealed that the specific absorption rate (SAR) of electromagnetic energy on the iPhone 12 by the body is 5.74 W/kg, with a maximum allowable of 4 W/kg. kilogram. Shortly after the results of the ANFR study were published, French Deputy Minister of Digital Economy Jean-Noël Barrot made a statement in the media that Apple intends to ban the sale of the iPhone 12 in the country if it does not return the smartphone. normal operation. When asked about the potential health hazards of Apple smartphones, Rospotrebnadzor stated that all smartphones pose a health hazard due to electromagnetic radiation.
“Radiation from all mobile phones is dangerous for people, especially children. “It is important to follow safety rules when talking on a mobile phone: the call should not last more than two minutes and the minimum pause between calls should be at least 15 minutes,” he said.
They also added that mobile phones should not be kept with you while sleeping and should be kept with you at all times. It is better to carry the mobile phone in the bag; You should not keep the mobile phone on your chest, on your belt or in your breast pocket or trouser pocket for a long time.
In addition, Rospotrebnadzor emphasized that in Russia there is a system for measuring electromagnetic radiation that is different from SAR – energy flux density (EFD), measured in watts per square centimeter of the body (μW/cm2). The standard PES for the human head, established by Rospotrebnadzor in the frequency range 300-2600 MHz (covers all current communication standards from 2G to 4G. – Editor’s note) is 100 (μW/cm2).
“Therefore, SAR and PES cannot be compared; they are different values,” the ministry concluded.
