A study by Laldinpuii et al titled “ Effects of exposure to nearby mobile phone base stations and mobile phone usage on human blood parameters ” published on 6 February 2026 demonstrates that mobile RF-EMF (900 and 1800 MHz) elevates white blood cell counts. Radiation having an impact on living cells is commonsense but it is interesting to come across a study that supports this. The study is admittedly small, comparing 50 people who live <60m to a mobile phone tower to 51 peo
