Unforeseen consequences of electromagnetic fields
The ubiquity of electromagnetic fields (EMF) raises concerns about potential
implications for human health, in particular with regard to the use of mobile phones,
power lines or antennas for broadcasting. Over the last decade, the spread of wireless
devices has accelerated enormously. The convergence of mobile phones with
computer technology has led to the proliferation of new and emerging technologies.
This development has increased exposure to electromagnetic fields, the health impacts
of which remain unknown.
Anxiety over the potential risks related to EMF has risen. Studies are difficult to conduct,
since time trend studies are inconsistent due to the still rather recent proliferation of
wireless technology. The WHO has classified extremely low-frequency magnetic fields
and radiofrequency electromagnetic fields, such as radition emitted by cell phones, as
potentially carcinogenic to humans (Class 2B carcinogen). Furthermore, a recent ruling
by an Italian court suggested a link between mobile phone radiation and human health
impairment. Overall, however, scientific studies are still inconclusive regarding possible
adverse health effects of EMF.
If a direct link between EMF and human health problems were established, it would
open doors for new claims and could ultimately lead to large losses under product
liability covers. Liability rates would likely rise.
