EMR Syndrome: a new name for a growing 21st-century health issue

 Millions of people worldwide experience debilitating symptoms—ranging from headaches and insomnia to heart palpitations and cognitive impairments—when exposed to electromagnetic radiation (EMR) from everyday technologies like cellphones, Wi-Fi routers, and smart devices. Until now, this condition has been known by a patchwork of names, including electromagnetic sensitivity, electrohypersensitivity, and microwave syndrome, creating confusion and stigma for those affected. In a landmark effort to unify and destigmatize the condition, the OneName Project has introduced a new term: Electromagnetic Radiation Syndrome, or EMR Syndrome.

The announcement, made in January 2025, marks a turning point for individuals living with EMR-related disabilities, as well as for advocates, scientists, and medical professionals working to raise awareness and secure recognition for the condition. The new name aims to simplify public understanding, foster advocacy, and pave the way for global recognition...<<<Read More>>>...

Just a theory, right?? Study: Evidence for a connection between coronavirus disease-19 and exposure to radiofrequency radiation from wireless communications including 5G

[David Icke]: Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) public health policy has focused on the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus and its effects on human health while environmental factors have been largely ignored. In considering the epidemiological triad (agent-host-environment) applicable to all disease, we investigated a possible environmental factor in the COVID-19 pandemic: ambient radiofrequency radiation from wireless communication systems including microwaves and millimeter waves.

SARS-CoV-2, the virus that caused the COVID-19 pandemic, surfaced in Wuhan, China shortly after the implementation of city-wide (fifth generation [5G] of wireless communications radiation [WCR]), and rapidly spread globally, initially demonstrating a statistical correlation to international communities with recently established 5G networks.

In this study, we examined the peer-reviewed scientific literature on the detrimental bioeffects of WCR and identified several mechanisms by which WCR may have contributed to the COVID-19 pandemic as a toxic environmental cofactor. By crossing boundaries between the disciplines of biophysics and pathophysiology, we present evidence that WCR may:

(1) cause morphologic changes in erythrocytes including echinocyte and rouleaux formation that can contribute to hypercoagulation;

(2) impair microcirculation and reduce erythrocyte and hemoglobin levels exacerbating hypoxia;

(3) amplify immune system dysfunction, including immunosuppression, autoimmunity, and hyperinflammation;

(4) increase cellular oxidative stress and the production of free radicals resulting in vascular injury and organ damage; (5) increase intracellular Ca2+ essential for viral entry, replication, and release, in addition to promoting pro-inflammatory pathways; and (6) worsen heart arrhythmias and cardiac disorders.

Radio is dangerous, but not 5G? FCC greenlights rollout for 5G tech but reaffirms radio radiation

[Natural News]: When the FCC announced that it would be reaffirming the same radio frequency radiation exposure limits that were put in place back in the 1990s, there was a lot of outrage. Putting aside the concerns that these limits were based on old research and were arguably set too high, the fact that they were kept in place at all would seem to be an acknowledgement that there is some danger in radio frequency radiation – an interesting stance from the same group that seems to have no problem with the 5G rollout.

The limits were set based on research from the 1980s using behavioral changes seen in rats that were exposed to microwave radiation. The aim was to protect people from the short-term risks of radiation exposure.

Needless to say, science has advanced significantly since the 1980s, and we are now far more aware of the dangerous effects of this radiation on human health – even exposure to much lower radiation levels – thanks to a large body of peer-reviewed research.

Another problematic aspect of the FCC’s exposure limits is the fact that they only limit the frequency, or intensity, of the carrier waves while ignoring other factors. For example, many scientists have expressed concerns that other characteristics of the signals, such as polarization and pulsing, raise the impacts of exposure and that new limits needed to be set that took these effects into account.

Of course, that would mean 5G plans would not be able to go forward, so it’s not surprising the FCC is not taking a more sensible approach. In fact, the head of the FCC at the time this decision came down, Ajit Pai, is a former telecom executive who worked for Verizon. The importance of 5G for the military was almost certainly a consideration as well.

A group of hundreds of scientists wrote a letter to the World Health Organization and the United Nations warning that there are “serious concerns regarding the ubiquitous and increasing exposure to EMF generated by electric and wireless devices.”...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

City Stops 5G Deployment due to Health Concerns (Including Infertility) and Locals Opposed to Being “Guinea Pigs”

[David Icke]: Cities AND entire countries have taken action to ban, delay, halt, and limit 5G installation AS WELL AS issue moratoriums due to health, safety, environmental and economic risks.

Kalamata, Greece is now one of them due to concerns about exposure causing infertility and other health issues.

The Kalamata City Council in Greece has decided to block further development and operation of the 5G network program due to concerns that it may cause infertility in the local population.

The council held a meeting and considered the radiation of the mobile network upgrade to be dangerous and most councilors voted in favor of halting testing, adding that the network should only operate in Kalamata when corresponding networks were in place in the rest of Greece.

The proposal to terminate the contract by the end of the year was voted in by 16 members, reported the Greek City Times.

The decision calls for the termination of cooperation with Wind network “until such technology passes from the experimental stage to the full implementation stage,” announced the Council.

In the text read by representatives of the city council, the radiation of 5G from the 2G, 3G and 4G networks were referred to as “dangerous”....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Are we winning? Telecom companies losing ground in their battle to impose 5G

[Natural News]:It’s easy to feel powerless when 5G towers are being installed right next to people’s homes, sometimes right outside their bedrooms, putting their families at untold risk from a technology that all signs indicate is very dangerous.

However, there are some promising signs that telecommunication companies may be losing their battle to impose 5G against people’s will, at least in some places.

For example, the Swiss government has appointed a group of experts tasked with probing the risks of introducing 5G. Meanwhile, the Swiss Federation of Doctors urged caution, saying that “as long as there is no scientific proof that raising the radiation limits will not impact health, one must refrain from raising them.”

In France, 60 mayors and other officials have petitioned to halt 5G, with the country’s federal health agency investigating the technology. In Lithuania, cell antennas have been banned on hospitals and kindergartens. The Health Council of the Netherlands has recommended against 26 GHz for 5G on account of a lack of safety data, and 600 Italian municipalities have passed resolutions halting 5G. Israel, meanwhile, has required cell tower setback of 100 meters from homes and schools.

Meanwhile, the European Commission’s Scientific Committee on Health, Environmental and Emerging Risks announced that the lack of compelling evidence informing exposure guidelines for 5G means the possibility of unintended biological consequences cannot be ruled out....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

 

Landmark Study Highlights Health Threats of 5G on People and Planet

[David Icke]: Flying under the radar, so to speak, during the media coverage of the COVID-19 pandemic, is the rollout of a hyper-fast speed 5G wireless network. As millions of Americans are suddenly working remotely, it has proven to be a powerful opportunity for regulators to move 5G forward.

Yet, in the face of expanding wireless connections, a landmark study recommends reducing exposure.

Despite concern by many experts, the implementation is moving forward under the guise of bringing a faster and more efficient internet, at any cost. The term 5G stands for the fifth generation of wireless access, which Jonathon Adelstein, head of the Wireless Infrastructure Association, characterizes as “4G on steroids.” The association represents nearly 200 companies in the telecommunications industry.

However, Adelstein’s characterization of 4G on steroids is not quite accurate. While the 4G network uses under 6 gigahertz (GHz) on the radio frequency spectrum, 5G will occupy from 30 GHz to 300 GHz, which are shorter millimeter wavelengths. The health effects of consistent exposure to pulses of these wavelengths have not been thoroughly studied, but the initial evidence shows it is likely dangerous.

If faster speed and reliability are truly the end goals, then fiber optic connections are a far better and safer way forward. It’s not the faster speeds of 5G that are of concern to scientists but, rather, the distribution of wireless data when in most cases it could be routed more easily and less expensively over fiber optic cables....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

5G Judicial Review 2020

[David Icke]: This page is against wireless 5G, radiofrequency radiation (“RFR”) and electromagnetic fields (“EMFs”) generally due to their impact on the health of humans, animals and plants.

Many people are sensitive to RFR and EMFs and suffer illness, distress and financial loss due to inability to work. The balance of scientific evidence is now clear that RFR/EMFs are harmful to humans.

The UK government insist on using ICNIRP’s guidelines to set limits of radiation for public health. ICNIRP’s guidelines are not fit for purpose as, among other things, they only recognise harm from heating of the body and are set for short term exposure – 6 minutes in fact. Many people suffer harm without any heating of their bodies.

5G is the fifth generation of RFR technology used in the mobile telecoms industry and follows 1G – 4G. It dwarfs RFR from 1G – 4G because millions more masts, antennae, small cells, picocells etc have to be placed at short distances apart all around the country in order to develop the infrastructure to deliver the data speed promised by 5G.

The current electrosmog from 1G – 4G will become significantly worse and it is likely to result in more harm to humans, animals, trees and pollinators....<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Study: Governments Should Be Testing 5G & Proving It’s Safe Before Exposing Humanity To It

[Collective Evolution]: Why do some mainstream media outlets ridicule the idea that 5G technology may be harmful to human health when there is an abundance of peer-reviewed literature emphasizing the need for further study?

The push for 5G forges on regardless of any safety testing. The mainstream continues to tout the idea that no science shows dangers associated with 5G radiation, but there are also no studies to show that it is safe. The truth is, there are medical and health experts who have been raising their concerns with regards to 5G technology, and human exposure to electromagnetic frequencies for quite some time.

Martin L. Pall, PhD and Professor Emeritus of Biochemistry and Basic Medical Sciences at Washington State University taken from his report titled “5G: Great risk for EU, U.S. and International Health! Compelling Evidence for Eight Distinct Types of Great Harm Caused by Electromagnetic Field(EMF) Exposures and the Mechanism that Causes Them,” emphasizes that:

“Putting in tens of millions of 5G antennae without a single biological test of safety has got to be about the stupidest idea anyone has had in the history of the world.” ...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

How To Protect Yourself Against Growing Environmental Threats, Including the Coronavirus

[Wake Up World]: he world is not getting any safer. The growing number of environmental threats is increasing, and the mainstream media would like you to think that the only way out is through the medical establishment’s ill-contrived “cures”.

Unfortunately, these remedies have proven to be moderately helpful at best, and extremely risky at worst, and those with strong discernment have woken up to the fact that their solutions are the perfect recipe for long term health problems.

It’s in a time like this, where fear is growing and common-sense diminishing, to take a deep breath and centre oneself, and realize that our natural defenses are the best we have and are up to the challenge when outfitted appropriately. We just need to know what to do, and how to do it. In that vein, here is some sage advice on protecting yourself from being infected by the most common environmental threats, including the Coronavirus...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Major cities are fighting cancer-causing 5G technology

[Natural News]: It is an undisputed fact that cell phones emit radiation, and that after prolonged exposure, the human body can absorb this radiation.

The speed at which technological developments have rolled out in the past few years means that the long-term effects of exposure to these high levels of radiation are not yet properly understood.

Nonetheless, the studies that have been conducted have raised worrying concerns about the safety of cell phone use.

The World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has categorized the radio frequency fields emitted by cell phones as possibly carcinogenic (cancer-causing) to humans. Depending on your age (children are at much greater risk) and the type of device you use, using a cellular device could, therefore, be putting you at considerable risk of developing cancer...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

Snowden Says Don’t Use WiFi — Here’s Why

Cell Phone Radiation is Associated with DNA Damage

[Wake Up World]: During the 5G rollout process, 5G will continue to use the lower frequencies of 2G and 3G, which are known to penetrate up to four inches into the body. With 5G being almost inescapable across the planet, this suggests a clear health risk.

5G will also use much higher frequency radiation, up to 60,000 MHz.

The NTP has announced that they will now work on further short-term studies in an effort to isolate the biomarkers of DNA damage from RFR. By studying results across a matter of weeks and months, scientists hope to be able to isolate behavioural changes or molecular cell changes which could be predictive of cancer.

This will help to establish quickly the full level of danger which 5G may pose, and the results, if significant, may underline the short-term damage these frequencies can do even with intermittent exposure, long before cancer can develop.

The NTP study was rigorous in ensuring that no tissue heating occurred, so it is clear that the currently outdated safety standards are not fit for purpose. “This study adds to the large body of ever-growing research showing that non-ionizing radiation that does not heat tissue can and does cause harm to humans”, said Anthony Miller MD, former Director of the Epidemiology Unit of the National Cancer Institute of Canada. Devra Davis, President of the Environmental Health Trust agrees, stating that “It’s time for federal action to reduce exposure to the public.”

As Ron Melnick, PhD, lead designer of the NTP study, says, “An important lesson that should be learned from this study is that we can no longer assume that any current or future wireless technology, including 5G, is safe without adequate testing.”...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

5G radiation causes BEHAVIOR changes in humans, causes ion potentiation poisoning of brain cells, leading to mass insanity

[Natural News]: If you’re wondering why people who live in 5G rollout areas seem to be going insane, it’s not your imagination. 5G radiation causes “neuropsychiatric” effects through a mechanism described as ion potentiation poisoning of brain cells,

This results in behavioral changes and even personality changes among those who are routinely exposed, researchers found. In other words, 5G is a weapon system that doubles as a telecommunications infrastructure, but the real impact is to damage human brain function and destroy rationality, reason and civility, especially among those who live in high population cities where 5G towers are becoming ubiquitous. That’s why you may have noticed increased insanity and widespread mental derangement in those areas...<<<Read The Full Article Here>>>...

To bee, or not to bee, that is the five “G” question – Olle Johansson

[David Icke]: The collective evidence we can draw from the current scientific status regarding adverse health and biological effects of artificial electromagnetic field exposures, such as from cell phones, antennas/base stations, TV and radio towers, baby alarms, smart meters, powerlines, and WiFi routers, points to that we may be jeopardizing more than our own health and behaviour.

Bacteria, plants, birds, frogs, and pollinating insects, may all be targeted, and it is obvious we must proceed with the highest caution before immersing the citizens and our wildlife in more and more artificial electromagnetic fields.

We may, as a matter of fact, already be gravely endangering our current as well as coming generations. To not act today, may prove a disaster tomorrow, and such lack of action may again result in the classical “late lessons from early warnings”, or – even worse – “too late lessons from early warnings”.

Wi-Fried! Cellphones, Electrosmog, Blue Lights, and 5G

Activists Measured and Videotaped 5G Radiation Levels at Glastonbury Festival. It’s Not Pretty.

[Waking Times]: The Telecom Industry has admitted they have no scientific evidence that 5G wireless is biologically safe and plenty of researchers say it isn’t (see 1, 2). Unfortunately, it’s still being promoted, installed, and unleashed in the U.S. and around the world despite widespread growing opposition.

Last month thousands of people signed a petition demanding a ban of 5G wireless at Glastonbury Festival. Unfortunately, it was ignored and hundreds of thousands of attendees were exposed to this harmful technology whether they were aware of it or not. Thanks to a group of activists who put their own health at risk to measure and videotape RF levels.

'During the festival itself, we heard reports that some people were experiencing classic symptoms associated with 5G radiation such as bad headaches, nose bleeds and stinging eyes.

Over the course of the weekend, Simo Zia made a series of videos in which tested the EMFs around the site. He found levels that he said were 1,000 times more than the natural voltage of the human body.'....read more>>>...
