When the researcher claimed that 5g may accelerate the development of drug resistant microbes I decided I could safely dismiss them. If someone has some proposed mechanism I might reconsider, but that seems very unlikely to me. Drug resistance is expensive for cells so they only do it if they have to. RF isn’t going to lead them to spontaneously develop a trait and the rate of mutation is already optimized, speeding it up isn’t going to lead to super viruses because evolution already has all the tools it needs to speed up mutations if beneficial. He also seemed very focused on the number of individuals antennas associated with 5g which is clearly the wrong metric
