The authors planned to enumerate U.S. governmental actions on RF issues and highlight the inconclusive nature of RF bioeffects data.

Plain English Summary

Summary written for general audiences

The presentation was designed to enumerate actions taken by U.S. governmental groups on RF issues during the previous two years. The authors intended to point out the inconclusive and insufficient nature of the RF bioeffects and health effects databases. They also planned to note the difficulty of applying risk assessment to the available data.

Why This Matters

It was prepared in the context of recent RF bioeffects reviews and health criteria development efforts by local, state, national, regional, and international groups. The authors also planned to list specific areas where additional research was needed.
