UK publishes a health atlas

A health atlas has been published in the UK drawing on 25 years of data matching environmental hazards and diseases to geographical location. The information has been collected and analysed by the [b]UK Small Area Health Statistics[/b] unit based at [b]Imperial College London[/b]. The work includes investigations into concerns about mobile phone base stations, which were also not found to be linked to increased rates of cancer in neighbourhoods.
