[...] In addition, PTAs and teacher unions are now responding to the strong recommendations by medical organizations, such as the American Academy of Pediatrics, by educating and supporting policy and resolutions on minimizing cell tower, cell phone and wireless radiation in classrooms. [...] The EPA should develop safety limits based on a systematic review of the full body of scientific research including cancer and impacts to the brain and reproduction. [...] doi: 10.1136/jech-2019-213595 and 2020 Consensus Statement of UK and International Medical and Scientific Experts and 5G Appeal to the European Union and The Cyprus Medical Association, the Vienna Austrian Medical Chamber and the Cyprus National Committee on Environment and Children’s Health released the 2017 Nicosia Declaration.
