Rf effects from the antenna

I wonder what effects there are long term from the unmodified phone on the hand having the transmitter RF signal from the antenna directly in contact with the body ? The effects must be higher than just the radiated signal ?

PLT INTERFERENCE

One point not mentioned in various forums about this subject is the fact that a device can have a CE approval mark without having being formally tested/approved, there is a option in the regulation for the maker to self certify stating that the device meets approval without have to show any documentation to prove it unless challenged or a situation exists where it is necessary to prove it for legal reasons in court or to a relevant authority when challenged.

So a situation can exist( and has done for some products) that the product does not meet the marked standards but is marked as such and marketed. As I understand the guilty party is the person who signed the document not the reseller( eg not BT) unless the reseller has knowledge that the product does not meet the standard.
