NEW evidence has been revealed to link mobile phone masts with serious birth defects.
A huge rise in miscarriages, deformities and tumours has been found in a study by respected
German scientists.
They discovered the problems in cows grazing next to masts. Some are giving birth to calves
without eyes. Others have no mouths - and some no legs.
Hundreds of cows have been slaughtered on 38 farms in Bavaria, Germany, where the study was
carried out by the country's Ministry For Land Development.
