Eyes and phones.

Well, some unknown things are probably totally impossible,
some totally possible, but there is little one can do until
more is known.

Additionally "risk" is something difficult to handle when
the known probabilty is very small, something proved by the
popularity of gambling casinos and lotto (skipping the
entertainment aspect).

That's why I recommend hands free kits and a denser
grid of basestations keeping the power levels lower.
(as well as stricter standards on spurious out of band
levels cleaning up the "ether")

And, as Tero pointed out, large studies on brain tumors
as well as eye cancer and degenerations are good in them
selves, although other studies might be more productive??
(I need to upgrade to 21 inch monitors and the wife of a
buddy actually has eye cancer,interstingly removing it is
probably the worst thing to do?? the question on
cooperating neighbouring cells)

On a more basic level I think universal healthcare and
pension systems limits most fears from being projected
through things like Survivor (although that one focuses
on social fears of not being accepted, sent home).

And as long as the statistical correlation is too small
to find, one just need to be and behave somewhat normal.

P.S. Additionally universal healthcare is a good way
of ensuring that the statistics are factual and covers
everyone, not based on the need of funding for some
academics or others who just lost their private funding,
nor a matter of proprietary competitive information
of private insurance companies, dealing with those
who can afford an insurance. (usage of mobile
handsets correlates with factors like that, the
main causal factor is income)
