Your GSM and your health: a review of the situation.

Is a GSM dangerous to health? At Mobistar we are very aware of people's concerns about their health. For this reason we make sure that we are fully informed of all the latest research results regarding the propagation of electromagnetic waves. Thus, Mobistar has a team that is solely responsible for the daily monitoring of the various investigations going on.

You can find more information about the existing limits from the government body for the Post and Telecommunication sector in Belgium - the BIPT.

The World Health Organisation has for some years now been updating the results of the hundreds of studies being conducted throughout the world. More info on the WHO website.

As for the measurements taken in the field, they all show that the electromagnetic waves of the Mobistar are well lower than Belgian standards require. They are also lower than the standards set by the World Health Organization. More information on www.infogsm.be.
