Abstract

Abstract Summary

Overview: This comment offers additional insight into a study conducted on personal exposure to RF-EMF in educational settings.

Findings: A comparative analysis is discussed, providing measurements from various educational institutions across different countries. Details include:

  • Maximum exposure recorded in Spain: 120 μW/m²
  • Minimum exposure found in Switzerland: 1.19 μW/m²
  • Average exposure: 36.9 μW/m²
  • Median exposure value: 22.2 μW/m²
  • 95th percentile of exposure: 110 μW/m²

Conclusion: The data underline significant variations in RF-EMF exposure in school environments, urging for more comprehensive monitoring and regulation to ensure student safety.
