“There hasn’t been any adequate review of the research on impacts to children by any US agency.” – Theodora Scarato.
Environmental Health Trust Theodora Scarato (Environmental Health Trust), Dr. Uloma Uche (Environmental Working Group), and Dr. Jerome Paulson MD, Professor Emeritus, George Washington University, Milliken School of Public Health and Former Chair of American Academy of Pediatrics Committee on Environmental Health discuss the potential impacts of wireless devices on children’s health and what we can do about it.
This video originally aired live on Children’s Environmental Health Day (CEH Day), October 14, 2021, as part of CEH Day: Project Connect, an educational and entertaining virtual event highlighting organizations’ and individuals’ celebrations, challenges, and innovations in children’s environmental health throughout 2021.
