Cell phone usage linked to brain tumors. - Tampa Bays Local News:
"Three billion people all over the world, using mobile phones every single day.

The numbers are staggering. But, even more shocking is a new study by an Australian neurosurgeon. He says ten years of cell phone use can double your risk of a brain tumor.

How many hours have you spent on your phone? Day after day, year after year.

Not so fast, says one neurologist from the H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute.

“There's no need to change your ways,” says Dr. Sajeel A. Chowdhary.

Dr. Chowdhary sees more than 200 brain tumors a year at the Moffitt Cancer Center. He says, not one has a direct link to cell phone usage."
