How bad are cell phones and laptops for infants?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
AVOID: Although no formal studies are done as far as I am aware, I would absolutely avoid close contact with either devices in young developing nervous systems. Cellular data, wifi, 3g 4g LTE data have some carcinogenic health concerns. There is a debate globally about it with data from some EU nations. Better to be safe.
