A comprehensive scoping review of 517 studies finds that 59% report DNA damage from RF-EMF exposure. While in vitro studies show mixed results, 75% of both in vivo and epidemiological studies report statistically significant genetic damage.

"The overall balance of evidence for DNA damage was 59% Effects compared to 41% No Effects."

— Weller et al., Frontiers in Public Health

"[...] the majority of both the in vivo studies (75%) and the epidemiological studies (75%) reported statistically significant DNA damage."
