I agree with Robert. In fact I'd go so far as to say that worrying about things like wifi radiation is more hazardous to ones health than the radiation itself.
Much of my work involves evaluating health risks associated with exposures to various kinds of environmental contamination. It's always amusing to me that people get up in arms about things that represent extremely low risks (very low levels of radioactive substances, asbestos in non-friable materials, cell phone towers, for example) but blissfully ignore significant risks (overeating, smoking, sanding lead-based paint, driving cars without wearing seatbelts).
