@Player_Review Lots of people confuse the epidemiological effects of non-ionising and ionising radiation. There are plenty of conspiracy theories about this - and they make as much sense as Flat Earth, Faked Moon Landings, the world's politicians all being lizard creatures from outer space ... just to name a few.
Photons (energy packets) of electromagnetic waves at radio frequencies don't carry enough energy to break covalent bonds, i.e. they cannot knock electrons off atoms or molecules and create ions. Damage from radio waves is somewhat frequency-dependent, and includes body heating, deep tissue burns and surface burns.
But higher frequency radiation such as ultraviolet, extreme UV, x-rays, etc, is ionising, and that's a different matter altogether.
