Re: risk estimates

["Björn Cedervall" <bjorn_cedervall@hotmail.com>]

William:

There is at least one study (7 years ago or so??) that correlates
income with the risk of childhood brain tumors (a tumor association
was found for lower household incomes). About 155 cases (brain
tumors) were included in the study and then there were controls
also. I can come back to this - it relates the the "EMF" issue
(I don't like that "EMF" term either).

Sincerely Yours,

Bjorn
