The current "thermal-only" safety guidelines (FCC/ICNIRP) are obsolete and ignore biological harm like oxidative stress, a known enemy of soft tissue integrity.

The current "thermal-only" safety guidelines (FCC/ICNIRP) are obsolete and ignore biological harm like oxidative stress, a known enemy of soft tissue integrity. The correlation between the 49ers' soft tissue graveyard and their chronic exposure to elevated magnetic fields is too strong to dismiss as coincidence. A dedicated clinical study into a direct link between 60 Hz magnetic fields and specific Achilles/hamstring rupture rates would be a great step for science.
