Study: Cell tower radiofrequency radiation may contribute to cancer (2018)
- glitcher 7y agoA conspiracy theorist acquaintance pointed to an article about this study as a reason to be against 5G. I don't take anything this person says at face value, but they are also not automatically wrong just because I don't like what they say. Is anyone familiar with this study, any similar studies, or possibly be able to explain its implications to someone like me not knowing much about this science? On the surface it appears to have some significant results, but how those results are spun in articles across the web I don't find trustworthy.
- JPLeRouzic 7y agoI am a retired engineer, so take it with a grain of salt: They discuss about 50v/m levels, in the company that employed me(France) it was roughly one hundredth of that. BTW I never understood why this kind of unit (V/M) was used, instead of power density, for example. As far I know, 5G should be much less dangerous, than for example LW/MW radio emitters. If you inhabit close to one of those emitters, you see daily weird things, because they are considerably more powerful than any mobile cell tower, and lower frequencies penetrate much more deeply.
