do cellular cell sites emit radioactivity or microwaves that is harmful to health.

there's no real proof for the above (yet), simply because cell sites have been around for only 10-15 years in most places and data is only now being collected from scratch. It is certainly plausible but difficult to prove, cell sites typically emit power of only a few watts, though of very high frequency. It would be far more dangerous to live next to a power line transmitting tens of thousands of volts. However we should know definitely in the next decade as more data is collected. meanwhile yes, property values do go down near a cell site(one reason your neighbours don't want one anywhere near their houses, simply because they resemble power pylons). Anyhow we should know definitely as the data grows. Some scientists do suspect this now. It would probably be better not to sleep with a cellphone near your head till the data is out.

I am not sure about "radioactivity or microwaves", but the concommitant constant vial obtrusive atmosphere of having to listen to everyone's conversations in above normal speaking voice in public, gross brainless ambling around as the phone users bump into the innocent, and dangerous decrease in driving skills of those on phones IS harmful.
Anyone caught doing any of the above should have phone apparati permanently nailed to their skulls so as to lobotomize the user.... but perhaps we might never note any difference in them!!!!!

I am doing a research on this subject. I am collecting all available datas. Some recent studies show that these towers may affect people's health. You have to wait for a final answer.

100% YES!!!!!!!! there are waves that have been proven to cause cancerous diseases. they wanted to put a cell tower up in our community and thank g-d enough people understood the dangers and petitioned against it and won. stay away from living too close.
plus-cell phones also emitt harmful radiowaves and you should try to get protectors for them-'biopro'

Only if you were up on the antenna itself.
