answer text <p>The independent Advisory Group on Non-ionising Radiation (AGNIR) published a comprehensive evidence review in 2012. The group’s overall conclusion was that although a substantial amount of research has been conducted in this area, there is no convincing evidence that electromagnetic field exposures below guideline levels cause health effects in either adults or children.
