Workers Tell How Health
Suffered
The Express
October 16, 1999
An engineer launched a lawsuit against his former bosses at British telecom
earlier this year, claiming the mobile phone they gave him caused him brain
damage.
Stever Corney, a father of three, worked for BT from 1986 until 1996, then went
sick until leaving the firm on health grounds last year.
Mr. Corney, 40, of Kempston, Beds, spent several hours a day on his BT mobile
before falling ill. He claims radiation from it caused him short term memory
loss that eventually made even the simplest tasks a nightmare. "I would do
the shopping, pay with cash and then forget that I had done it, so I would do it
all again and pay with a credit card", he said.
Yesterday he welcomed the stand taken by Dr.Carlo. Mr.Corney said: "Mobile
phones aren't safe and it's time the companies admitted they do cause harm.
Anything which can get this message across is important."
Market trader Giovannia de Dominicis was struck down with Hodgkin's Disease, a
rare form of cancer, at the same time as his friend and next door neighbour
Terry Clark. The pair, from Hackney, East London, blamed their cancer on the use
of Mercury OnetoOne mobiles which they both used for hours at a time. Mr.de
Dominicis, 27, who has been in remission for the past two years, said: "The
mobile phone industry will be caught up just the same way the tobacco people
were. I believe they will end up paying out millions, and having to admit that
mobile phones do carry risks".
Dr.Gerald Hyland, a physicist at Warwickshire University, said "I know from
my own area that epileptic seizures have gone up in schools as a result of
youngsters using mobiles."
