Request Submitted for Investigation of FDA Doctor in re Possible Conflicts of Interest on Cell Phone Radiation Safety Assurances
By B.N. Frank
Decades of peer-reviewed published research has determined that exposure to sources of wireless “Wi-Fi” radiation including cell phones can cause symptoms, illnesses, and injuries. In some parts of the world, government agencies are warning residents about cell phone radiation but not in the U.S. In fact, last year, a federal court ruled in favor of organizations and petitioners that sued the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for NOT adequately protecting Americans from wireless radiation exposure (including 5G).
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is also supposed to guarantee the safety of cell phones and other radiation-emitting products. Of course, that agency has a long history of NOT protecting the public from various unsafe products as well. Recently this led to a request for an investigation of one of its staff members regarding statements made about cell phone and wireless radiation exposure risks.
From Environmental Health Trust:
Request for Investigation of Conflicts of Interest at the FDA RE Dr. Jeffrey Shuren on Cell Phone Radiation
EHT is sharing a recent request to the FDA for an investigation related to possible conflicts of interest at the FDA, specifically in regards to FDA’s Dr. Shuren who provided false safety assurances to the FCC in regards to cell phone and wireless radiation.
Request for Investigation of Malfeasance and Conflicts of Interest at the FDA made; in addition to a Petition of the FDA Requesting a Declaration of Imminent Hazard in regards to the Safety of Exposure to Non-ionizing Radiation in Dec 2021.
“Dr. Shuren’s family benefits from a billion-dollar telecom practice in the Arnold & Porter law firm where his wife is a partner. Most alarming was this quote from the law firm’s website: “We played a lead role in every transaction undertaken by AT&T (formerly SBC) since the passage of the 1996 Telecommunications Act…”

Subject: Urgent Supplement to Our Filing of March 15, 2021
To: Scavdis, George <[email protected]>, <[email protected]>
Dear Mr. Scavdis:
Relevant to our request for investigation filed with your office March 15th of last year (attached), what we feared and what was the basis for the urgency of our filing, has occurred. False and misleading information published by the FDA with respect to wireless communication technology safety is now the subject of an active Imminent Hazard action involving the offices of Secretary Becerra and Acting FDA Commissioner Woodcock (attached).
The population at risk, based on the detrimental reliance of businesses, nonprofits, NGOs, individuals, and government entities on non-existent FDA safety standards for wireless exposure, reach to the majority of the United States population. The attendant risks underscore both the validity and the urgency of our plea to the Inspector General to investigate malfeasance and conflicts of interest at the FDA with respect to this critically important and rapidly evolving issue.
It has been more than a year since our filing with no response from your office on progress or disposition. As conveyed prior, and as the present time urgency compels, we stand ready to assist in any way possible. Lives depend on it. https://www.regulations.gov/docket/FDA-2021-P-1347/comments
Please confirm that you have received this email communication, reviewed the attached documents, and kindly send along any progress you can share on the overall investigation.
Sincerely yours,
Kevin Mottus
