SSM's Scientific Council publishes its 20th annual EMF health review. While no new causal links are established, the council notes continued observations of oxidative stress in animals from RF exposure — some below current reference levels — and maintains its hands-free recommendation, stating that 'biological effects and uncertainties regarding possible long-term effects justify caution.'

"Observations of increased oxidative stress reported in previous SSM reports continue to be found, some even below current reference levels."

"There are currently very few studies in the 26 GHz band."
