I live about 15km from a moderately-sized airport, and I can hear the deep rumble when planes take off during the quieter hours of the day. Airports aren't getting banned anytime soon, and don't seem to have caused any measurable health problems to the surrounding population.
Same thing for surf beach communities. First time I stayed a few days near a surf beach I was surprised by the penetrating deep rumble of every single set of waves that crashed on the beach.
I think the health issues caused by living near a wind farm would be similar to those experienced by living near anything that the individual has some kind of righteous moral opposition to (read: lack of understanding of).
Imagine a future where airports can only be located 50km from any other civilisation due to the health effects that wind farms are accused of causing. Combine that with 4G being the upper limit of mobile connectivity because 5G was found to be both a Chinese conspiracy for world domination and a radiation health risk.
