Perhaps. Intensity, proximity, and radiated frequency are important
in my experience.

Sure enough, I've got indisputable proof. The longer I'm a ham, the
dimmer my eyesight and hearing, the shakier my hand, the unsteadier my
gait. I can't remember things as well as I used to. And I'm even
growing more hair out of my ears!

Watch out, this stuff is dangerous in the long haul!


Epidemiological studies often provide "indisputable proof" to people
looking for support for their "beliefs". For instance, if they don't
want a mobile phone tower in their visual environment, then the results
of such studies are elevated to "indisputable proof" to oppose such
structures.

The illogical thing is that there is more opposition to taller towers,
though they are safer from an EMR perspective (both in terms of the
radiation from the tower, and the power radiated by mobiles to
communicate with the tower). That indicates to me that EMR safety is not
uppermost in their minds, and their concern is a misrepresentation.

Thing is, when you depend on epidemiological studies, while you can
create a lot of FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt), you can't really
prove anything safe.
