Can my cell phone kill me?

No, your cell phone cannot kill you. Cell phones emit non-ionizing radiation, which means that they do not have enough energy to ionize atoms or molecules and cause harm to your health. Although there is some concern about the long-term effects of exposure to non-ionizing radiation, such as that emitted by cell phones, the available scientific evidence does not support a causal link between cell phone use and serious health conditions like cancer or death.

However, it’s still important to use cell phones responsibly and limit exposure to their non-ionizing radiation. This can include using hands-free devices to keep the phone away from your head and body, avoiding using your cell phone when the signal is weak and it has to work harder to emit more radiation, and avoiding carrying your cell phone in your pocket or directly against your body for extended periods of time.
