Wi-Fi Radiation Risks

The discourse on Wi-Fi radiation risks has garnered attention, with some researchers arguing it is safer than mobile phones. Notable experts such as physicist Regan from the University of Surrey and Sperri, the Director of Medical Physics, have commented on the subject.

nearly half UK primary schools and more than 70% of secondary schools have wi fi

concern over possible wi-fi radiation effects
need more research into effects of radiation

Wi-Fi's radiation is 3x higher than phone

Wi-Fi safer than phones/mobiles

radiation in a wi-fi hotspot for a year is equal to 20 min. on a cell phone
wi-fi transmits over shorter distanes = less power
Experiment was flawed
information sent to media wasn't clear
didn't take into account the inverse square law
power measurements weren't taken from equal distances

"No adverse health effects from lowe level, long term exposure
