I'm not sure if I'm being practical or silly, but is there a cell phone cover that would minimize such radiation?

- mataug 8y agoAny cover which would reduce the amount of radiation would probably also interfere with the signal strength, which in-turn would also affect the battery life of the phone

- Obi_Juan_Kenobi 8y agoThe practical way to mitigate exposure would be to use a headset and keep the actual phone away from your body when possible. Any sort of cover over the phone itself would cause it to lose reception.
- driverdan 8y agoThis isn't something to worry about unless you're using your phone for 9h a day and have boosted the power output beyond the legal limit. Even then there isn't an explanation as to how it would cause cancer.
- vertexFarm 8y agoUnpopular but entirely correct. The study used power up to ten watts per kilogram. Your phone uses around a watt or less compared to your whole body mass. Let's say the average of 62 kilos. Your exposure is less than a fiftieth of what was produced in the experiment, probably less because you aren't irradiated 24 hours a day--you take it off your person to charge at some point. And the radio produces far less wattage when it's idle, which is going to be the vast majority of your day. Compared to the amount the rats were getting constantly, this would be a truly minuscule fraction of exposure over time. Even with such extraordinary amplitude, the correlation was very slight. Trust me, everyone has much bigger health risks to worry about than radio. If you've ever had a drink in your life you've done worse.
