Comments on "Radiofrequency electromagnetic fields and some cancers of unknown etiology: An ecological study".

ABSTRACT

This correspondence refers to the Science of the Total Environment article by Gonzalez-Rubio et al. entitled "Radiofrequency electromagnetic fields and some cancers of unknown etiology An ecological study". Authors of this paper have presented the findings of their preliminary epidemiological study which combined epidemiology, statistics and geographical information systems (GIS). Gonzalez-Rubio et al. have analyzed the possible link between exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields (RF-EMF) in the city of Albacete, Spain and the incidence of cancers such as lymphomas, and brain tumors. The shortcomings of this study are discussed.
