Studie: draadloze DECT telefoons nog groter gezondheidsrisico voor jonge mensen dan gsm's

 

stuff.co.nz - Cordless phones are more of a health risk to young people than mobiles, according to new university research.

The research, to be published in the Environmental Health journal this week, also found high users of cordless phones more commonly experienced tinnitus, or ringing in their ears.

Jean-Yves Cendrey (°1957, Nevers) is de echtgenoot van de Franse schrijfster en Goncourt-winnares Marie NDiaye. Het koppel en zijn drie kinderen wonen in Berlijn.

 

Cendrey, de zoon van een gewelddadige militair, was 28 jaar toen hij in 1985 het debuut 'Quant au riche avenir' van de destijds 18-jarige NDiaye las. Hij was diep onder de indruk en schreef haar een brief. Ze maakten kennis met elkaar en werden een paar. Nu wonen ze met hun drie kinderen in Berlijn.
