On Tuesday this week the International Agency for Research on Cancer - part of the World Health Organisation - classified radiofrequency electromagnetic fields as possibly carcinogenic to humans.
It says the evidence among users of mobile telephones was ‘limited’. This means it’s credible there’s a link between mobiles and certain types of cancer - but chance, bias or another cause could not be ruled out.
