As a building biologist I am called to conduct audits or assessments on homes where people, often children, are extremely sick and fail to get better. People today are exposed to environmental toxins that the medical profession are not addressing, possibly because they are unaware of the health effects or lack the time to devote to education on biological effects of man-made electrical pollution. Exposure to more and more electromagnetic radiation (EMR) from wireless communications and electromagnetic fields (EMF) from magnetic and electric fields in the built environment is having devastating consequences on our population and on me. I have become extremely electrically sensitive since moving to Melbourne and can now relate to the health effects experience by my clients. The best way to explain the seriousness of this condition is to say that my body is aging at a rate of knots that is scaring me. Sufficiently so that we have moved a number of times to reduce exposure to wireless transmissions and tried various ways to shield myself from EMR and reduce EMF in my home. Specifically Wi-Fi from modems/routers, Wi-Fi from computers, Bluetooth and HotSpot technology all have detrimental health effects. Many devices come with built-in connectivity to wireless technology, which makes living in a normal environment for electrically sensitive people similar to a war zone. Wireless technology causes multiple health effects which often gets worse over time. Symptoms often associated with EHS include headaches, sleep disturbances and insomina, lethargy, fibromyalgia, muscle and joint pain, thrombosis effects (clotting or clumping of blood cells), chronic fatigue, depression, anxiety, redness or burning of the skin or hands when using mobile devices. Symptoms listed in Michael Bevington’s book on Electromagnetic Sensitivity include chest pain, heart arrhythmia, cold extremities, especially in the hands and feet, burning sensations in the feet or legs, concentration and memory problems, cardiac palpitations, high or low blood pressure, nosebleeds, shortness of breath, coughs, irritability, difficulty learning, and hyperactivity especially in children, lack of concentration, short or long-term memory impairment, dry skin, crawling sensations on the skin and restless legs, facial flushing, growths or lumps on the skin, altered appetite, digestive problems, flatulence and food intolerances. Eyes and sight can be affected, impaired vision, smarting dry eyes, pressure behind the eyes, pain or a gritty feeling, eyelid tremors or tics. Other physiological conditions include, abnormal menstruation, brittle nails, hair loss, itchy scalp, metal redistribution, thirst / dryness of lips, tongue and mouth and incontinence. The only solution is avoidance, and in today's world this is nearly impossible because everyone relies on a smart phone without knowing how dangerous they are. Of great concern is the rollout of more EMR in the form of 5G which is the 5th Generation protocol for wireless transmissions. This will have devastating effects on the people of Australia and many countries around the world. For your information I provide herewith independent research on the health effects of EMF/EMR and a list of organisations worldwide opposed to the increase of satellites and expansion of 5G technology on an already overloaded radio frequency spectrum, specifically for, in my professional opinion, the control of people through technology and the focus on money and profits from selling more products and services. If the issue of health effects is not dealt with in an open and honest way the long-term health of our people is in jeopardy. And long-term could mean less than 10 years according to experts worldwide. The Seletun Scientific Statement: Scientists, led by Karolinska Institute’s Olle Johansson, PhD, recommended global governments adopt new exposure guidelines for electromagnetic radiation – pointing to biological hazards and risks to the genetic code from unchecked proliferation of wireless technology. https://electromagnetichealth.org/electromagnetic-health-blog/the-seletun-statement/ Link to BioInitiative Report 2012 produced by 29 authors from ten countries, ten holding medical degrees (MDs), 21 PhDs, and three MsC, MA or MPHs. https://bioinitiative.org/table-of-contents/ Taken from the BioInitiative Report Preface: The great strength of the BioInitiative Report is that is has been done independent of governments, existing bodies and industry professional societies that have clung to old standards. Precisely because of this, the BioInitiative Report presents a solid scientific and public healthy policy assessment that is evidence-based. Henry Lai provides updated Research Summaries (May 2022) on health effects, neurological, free radical (oxidative damage) studies. Independent research has been carried out around the world and some countries have taken notice and reduced their exposure limits.
