It seems like this question has been around forever: Will my cell phone give me a brain tumor? Unfortunately, the jury still seems to be out.
A 30-year study released on Thursday by the Danish Cancer Society states that there does not seem to be a link between cell phone usage and brain tumors, but another study by the World Health Organization (WHO) will apparently come out soon stating that there is a link, according to a CNN article.
The Danish Cancer Society study conducted in Scandinavia included almost the entire region. It found that even though there was an extreme increase in cell phone usage during the 1990s, the rate of brain tumor cases during this time remained constant.
