Epidemiologic Data and Standards: Response to Kundi

摘要

While we welcome a scientific discourse on developing policy for electromagnetic fields (EMF) and on setting guideline limits, the letter by Kundi has a number of inaccuracies. The author appears not to understand the basis for the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP, 1998), EMF guidelines, or the use of precautionary measures suggested by the World Health Organization (WHO). Two of our authors (MR and LK) were instrumental in the development of the draft WHO framework and our views are "not at odds," but rather consistent, with it.
