Protect Your Health from the Radiofrequency Radiation of Your Smartphone: Phonegate Alert's First Awareness Campaign on the Dangers of Smartphones

PROTECT YOUR HEALTH FROM THE RADIOFREQUENCY RADIATION OF YOUR SMARTPHONE

Phonegate Alert Association

OUR FIRST AWARENESS CAMPAIGN ON THE DANGERS OF SMARTPHONES

Our association, created in March 2018, has obliged the French government over a period of two years to withdraw or update 23 models from different manufacturers (Xiaomi, Nokia, Huawei, Wiko, Alcatel, etc…) for levels of exposure of the body to radiofrequency radiation (SAR) higher than the level protecting your health. Hundreds of other models sold until June 2017 must also be updated.

Furthermore, the current European regulations do not guarantee the protection of users’ health in any way.

“No mobile phone sold today protects the health of its users. The fault lies with European and international legislation driven solely by the economic interests of the mobile telephony industry..

This will be even more the case with the introduction of 5G smartphones!“

Dr. Marc Arazi

President, Phonegate Alert

Essential gestures of protection

Your smartphone is always active and emits radiofrequency radiation even when you are not using it to make calls.

This insidious exposure is often completely unknown to users.

Avoid direct contact of your mobile phone with your body as much as possible:

• Do not leave it in your pockets (trousers, shirts, etc.)
• For young women, especially not in a bra.
• And don't call with your cell phone against your ear!

Keep your mobile phone at a safe distance

Without your knowledge, your operator will increase your SAR and thus your exposure to its maximum in areas of poor reception.  This happens several times a day.

• Always give preference to bags or outside pockets of jackets and coats when you are on the move.
• Favor the speaker phone or video exchange function of your smartphone.
• Avoid making calls while on the move (cars, trains, subway, etc.) or in areas of poor connection (1 and 2 bars on your mobile's screen).

People most at risk

The scientific evidence is particularly clear regarding early exposure of children.

• Delay the use of mobile phones for children, if possible before 14!
• It is imperative to avoid all contact between a connected device and the womb at all stages of pregnancy.
• Cardiac patients should avoid keeping their phones in a shirt or jacket pocket.
