Cell Tower Radiation and Phone Usage aren’t constant—they change depending on how many phones are actively connected to the network. When fewer devices are in use, the tower transmits less, so radiation levels are lower. During periods of heavy phone activity—such as evening streaming in busy neighborhoods or commuting hours—towers increase their signal to keep […]
EMFSA January 2026 News Updates – In this edition, we explore current research gaps and expert evaluations on RF-EMF and 5G, including the latest findings from the WHO Systematic Reviews, national reports, and recent expert commentary. A Brief Look at What Different Countries and Groups State: US Wireless Policy: Health Concerns vs. Rapid Deployment In […]
5G Frequency Range 2 (FR2), commonly known as millimeter-wave (mmWave), operates within the 24.25 GHz to 52.6 GHz spectrum range. While mmWave has been used for decades in applications requiring high frequency and bandwidth, its integration into 5G networks represents a new phase in mobile communication. Historically, mmWave technology has been applied in radar systems […]
Cellphone Radiation and Health Effects — New U.S. Study: The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) will undertake a study on cellphone radiation and its potential health effects. The initiative, aimed at examining gaps in current research, was reported by Reuters on January 16, 2026, and has also been covered by other news […]
Have you ever been told that “EHS is not real”? In our December 2025 Newsletter, we explore this claim and examine whether it aligns with the positions of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). For Alexander Alexander,13, has been living with glioblastoma since he was 11. His […]
CBT is a sensitive topic for some with Electrohypersensitivity (EHS). In the literature, the condition is also referred to as Idiopathic Environmental Intolerance attributed to electromagnetic fields (IEI-EMF). Traditionally, those with Electrohypersensitivity have been stigmatized and marginalized. Challenges and Stigma in EHS Examples include: • Comparisons to “Better Call Saul” • “It does not exist” […]

EMFSA September 2025 Newsletter: RFK Jr. warns about Wi-Fi and 5G — so why push for wearables? In this issue, we explore a striking contradiction: while U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary RFK Jr. has publicly raised concerns about Wi-Fi, 5G, and cell phones, he is promoting a nationwide rollout of wearable health devices. From […]
