　　英國健康保護機構將于1月11日向全國兒童發出慎用手機的警告。

　　據英國《每日電訊報》1月10日報道，英國公共衛生專家日前指出，雖然目前還不能明確判斷手機輻射是否對人體健康產生危害，但兒童還是應盡量避免使用手機。英國健康保護機構主席兼國家輻射保護部主席威廉·斯圖爾特爵士將于11日再次呼吁公眾遠離手機輻射。這將是斯圖爾特爵士自2000年以來第2次向人們發出慎用手機的警告。

　　斯圖爾特爵士表示，盡管目前還沒有確切的證據表明手機輻射對人體有害，但由于越來越多的小學生都開始使用手機，這讓人擔心手機可能存在的潛在危害將對孩子的健康發育不利。去年的一份調查顯示，英國的四分之一7歲至10歲兒童擁有手機，比2001年的調查數字增加1倍.

　　One of the Government"s leading public health advisers will give a warning tomorrow that children should only use mobile phones for essential calls until doubts over potential health hazards have been resolved.

　　Sir William Stewart, chairman of both the Health Protection Agency and the National Radiation Protection Board, will reiterate his previous demands that the public should have better access to information about handset emission levels.

　　With the NRPB, a statutory body that provides public information on radiation hazards, issuing new advice on mobiles tomorrow, Sir William is expected to make clear his frustration that precautionary steps recommended by an official inquiry that he chaired five years ago have been ignored.

　　He will say there is no clear evidence that mobiles phones are harmful, but will express concern that a significant proportion of primary school-age children now regularly use them while there are still question marks over potential health hazards.

　　A survey carried out last year showed that a quarter of children aged from seven to 10 owned mobiles – double the proportion of 2001.(：夏根建)
