Microwave radiation from cell phones and Wi-Fi routers is at a higher level than the general background radiation humans are exposed to.

◐Partially SupportedSatellite signals from space are too weak to be a significant health concern.

◐Partially SupportedCell phone microwave radiation can disrupt human cells, potentially lowering testosterone and damaging sperm DNA.

◐Partially SupportedThe magnetic field (ELF) in a Tesla is significantly higher than in a gas-powered car, especially during acceleration and at higher speeds.

◐Partially SupportedHigh frequency photons like ultraviolet radiation can cause DNA damage, but cell phone radiation is not at this level.

◐Partially SupportedCell phone radiation and EMFs are harmful to male fertility.

✕Not SupportedStudies on EMFs are not reassuring regarding potential problems for humans.
