re health hazards..you can always lie with statistics if you have a product to sell. It's pretty well known among aerospace engineers, the ones that stick around past the age of forty seem to die in their fifties. Fifteen years working around RF aerospace engineers, and i've seen a lot of horrible cancer deaths. Big joke at Boeing and Lockheed was that they offered a pension but you'd never collect on it if you stayed long enough to be fully vested. I've seen calculations showing that DBC satellites powerful enough to do wideband generate enough RF to cause cancer on the ground!. So do your own due diligence. I've just seen too many RF engineers die of cancer, way too many, too young.
Re cellphones...the calcs assume people only use them a few minutes a day. The real hazard is excessive use of them.
