Introduction
The Coming 5G Technology 
- the asbestos of the 21st century?

5G in Five Minutes (video)

Australia  is in the process of installing 5G technology. It is being touted as a wonderful advance. But the truth is many eminent scientists are expressing grave concerns about the health risks.
Because I share the real concerns of these scientists I have compiled below a summary of material about it so you can make informed choices.

My career was in teaching electronics. I specialised in teaching engineers to repair marine and military radars which radiated super high frequencies.

5G networks are the next generation of mobile internet connectivity and have much faster downloads than 4G. The G stands for generation.
5G in the  26-28GHz band has a shorter range than 4G, meaning a big increase in the number of aerials (small cells) so their signals can reach customers. Millions of aerials are expected to be installed in the USA.

5G will use spectrum in the existing LTE frequency range (600 MHz to 6 GHz) and also in millimetre wave bands (24–86 GHz).


Telstra begins the roll out of 5G in Australia


telstra

Is 5G coming to your area? Has it already arrived?
Enter your address (Australia only) in this Telstra page:


From the Telstra website:
The initial radio frequencies that will be used for 5G in Australia are 3.5GHz and 3.6GHz which are in the existing mobile band.  In future years radio frequencies in the mmWave band at 26-28GHz are expected to be used for 5G in Australia.

Telstra, Optus and Virgin 4G use frequencies up to 2.6GHz (centimetre wavelength)

This is relatively good news for the moment as these frequencies are less harmful than the proposed 26-28GHz (which some 5G networks are now using in the USA) which are millimetre wavelength and worry many scientists. But don’t forget studies show that 4G can cause harm now - see below.

So, at the moment Telstra has only increased the danger level a little (2.6GHz to 3.6GHz) but "In future years” they will jump to the much more potentially dangerous 24-26 GHz band which has limited range requiring more aerials.

More aerials means greater exposure to the radiation and thus greater danger to our bodies. Small aerials/cells will  be installed every few houses.
As the frequency of EME (electromagnetic energy) radiation increases so does its energy and it effects on plants, insects, animals and humans.
With more aerials and higher frequency what are the health hazards? Many are sounding warnings including Frank Clegg:

Why does Lloyds of London insurance company refuse to insure Big Wireless?
The Coming 5G Technology 
- the asbestos of the 21st century?


Lloyds


The reason I included the phrase “asbestos of the 21st century” is that some insurance companies (the most famous of which is Lloyds of London) have made headlines by refusing to insure Big Wireless (the telecommunication corporate conglomerate) against Wi-Fi and 5G-related illnesses. The Lloyd’s report compares these wireless technologies with asbestos, in that the early research on asbestos was “inconclusive” and only later did it become obvious to anyone paying attention that asbestos causes cancer.


Safety limits for phones and wireless health hazards

Proven EMF damage

Diagram illustrates results of scientific research on damage caused by radio frequency radiation.
From: What is 5G? - 2min video

•The majority of cell phones exceed safety limits when carried in pockets, bra or held against the ear - see article
•Cell Phones are NOT Radiation Tested in Body Contact Positions

•FeganScott law firm launches class action suit against Apple and Samsung: RF radiation levels exceed federal limit
*** Six Italian Courts Have Ruled that Cell Phones Cause Brain Tumors ***

Telstra’s website declares that present and future 5G networks are well within international safety guidelines.
Safety standards for phones were set over 20 years ago based on thermal and not biological tests. A mannequin head called SAM (specific anthropomorphic mannequin) filled with a mix of water, salt and sugar is subjected with the maximum amount of EMF radiation that can ever come off your phone and measuring how much that radiation is heating its brain.
If the temperature rise is 2°C** or less it is considered safe and the SAR (specific absorption rate) will fall within the FCC’s guidelines. This SAR rating is a measure of how much average radiation is being absorbed by human tissue.
The head they used is larger than 97% of all cell phone users. The EMF (electromagnetic field) source was held at least 5mm (half inch) away from the head at a 15 deg angle. Who uses a phone like that? Once the phone is held against the body (e.g. the ear, inside the bra, strapped to the arm) the safety limit is exceeded. Most cell phones exceed safety limits 1.6-3.7 times within the European standards and up to 11 times within the U.S. (FCC) standards when held against the body. If you can discover the fine print on cell phone instructions they tell you not to hold the phone against the body. The danger is worse for children as their skulls are thinner and their brains smaller resulting in much deeper penetration of EMFs into the brain.

The FCC in the USA regulates all wireless devices and products associated with them. Unfortunately the FCC is made up of previous telecoms executives, lawyers and engineers. There are no scientists or doctors which you would expect to be involved with the regulation of potentially harmful products.The FCC guidelines are 20 years out of date without any major significant improvements. Countries such as China, Russia, Italy and Switzerland have safety guidelines 100 times safer for their citizens. The FCC guidelines are based on small, short term infrequent exposure. They do not worry about the accumulated effects  from multiple devices, they don’t measure or monitor exposure 24 hours a day, for seven days a week, and they have no special considerations for children, pregnant women or those who have shown environmental sensitivity to wireless radiation. The telecoms industry is self policing.
Frank Clegg, former president of Microsoft Canada.    

     ** “But why 2°C? The original researcher who developed the SAR ratings, Om P. Gandhi of the University of Utah, observed that rats whose brain temperature rose by more than 2°C suddenly stopped eating.” (from: The Non-Tinfoil Guide to EMFs – How to Fix Our Stupid Use of Technology by Nicolas Pineault)

Biological damage has now been conclusively proved at temperatures well below these thermal limits. This damage includes lowered fertility, insomnia, fatigue, depression, anxiety, and major changes in brain structure in animals - cellular DNA damage, oxidative stress, hormonal disruption, cancer and much more.

Two petitions from scientists and doctors

1. 2015 -  More than 220 of the worlds leading scientists signed an appeal to the WHO and the United Nations to protect public health from wireless radiation.
“the weight of evidence reported in peer-reviewed, scientific studies strongly supports greater precautionary measures be taken to reduce or eliminate EMF (Electromagnetic field) exposure...” “Numerous recent scientific publications have shown that EMF affects living organisms at levels well below most international and national guidelines.
Effects include increased cancer risk, cellular stress, increase in harmful free radicals, genetic damages, structural and functional changes of the reproductive system, learning and memory deficits, neurological disorders, and negative impacts on general well-being...”
- European Journal of Oncology, 2015

2. 2017 -  Over 180 scientists and doctors from 35 countries sent a declaration to officials of the European Commission demanding a moratorium on the increase of cell antennas for planned 5G expansion. Concerns over health effects from higher radiation exposure include potential neurological impacts, infertility, and cancer.
“We recommend a moratorium on the roll-out of the fifth generation, 5G, for telecommunication until potential hazards for human health and the environment have been fully investigated by scientists independent from industry...RF-EMF has been proven to be harmful for humans and the environment. -2017 5G Scientific Appeal

The 5G mass-experiment: Big promises, unknown risks - 2min video


Fire fighters in the USA block cell towers on their station


fire fighters


Fire fighters in Sacramento, California have reported neurological damage including memory problems and confusion after new generation 5G cell towers that were installed outside their fire station. The fire station cell tower measured at 1 to 2/1000th of the allowable FCC limit of non-ionising radiation. That means towers could be almost 1000 times more powerful than the level the firefighters were exposed to. The firefighters claimed the symptoms stopped when they relocated to stations nearby.

Here is the 5m news video which features the fire fighters -"Blocking Cell Towers Near Fire Stations - Not Schools"

In 2010 the International Association of Fire Fighters passed a resolution to call for a moratorium on cell towers placed on fire station roofs. Fire fighters claimed they could no longer function without severe headache, inability to sleep, and foggy thinking. And this was happening well before 5G. American legislation does not allow these cell towers to be removed on environmental grounds but the power of the firefighter's lobby allowed for exemptions to cell towers on fire stations.

Dr. Gunnar Heuser conducted a pilot study on fire fighters at a station with cell towers. He found fire fighters started to experience memory problems, intermittent confusion and weakness. Abnormal brain function was found in all of the firefighters. Their brain scans showed cell damage.

Bees, Butterflies And Wildlife: Research On Electromagnetic Fields And The Environment

Electromagnetic fields from power lines, cell phones, cell towers and wireless impacts the birds, bees, wildlife and our environment.

5G Frequencies are Highly Absorbed into Insects - Especially Bees
“Exposure of Insects to Radio-Frequency Electromagnetic Fields from 2 to 120 GHz” published in Scientific Reports is the first study to investigate how insects (including the Western honeybee) absorb the higher frequencies (2 GHz to 120 GHz) to be used in the 4G/5G rollout. The scientific simulations showed increases in absorbed power between 3% to 370% when the insects were exposed to the frequencies. Researchers concluded, “This could lead to changes in insect behaviour, physiology, and morphology over time….” (Thielens 2018)

Thousands of 5G satellites are being launched into low level orbits


5G satellites


“In 2019, at least eight companies and governments are competing to send up fleets of from 150 to 42,000 satellites each. They are for 5G, the Internet of Things, and to provide high speed Internet to every square inch of the Earth. The Earth’s electromagnetic envelope—the magnetosphere—will be massively polluted. Millions of pulsed, modulated digital signals covering 80 GHz of spectrum will be emitted day and night into the magnetosphere by tens of thousands of satellites, each emitting multiple laser-like beams directed at the surface of the Earth. This will have several kinds of effects: (a) the direct radiation arriving at the ground; (b) pollution of the global electrical circuit; and (c) alteration of the magnetosphere itself.”

It includes chapters on protecting yourself from radiation.
The Non-Tinfoil Guide to EMFs: How to Fix Our Stupid Use of Technology

•Dr. Devra Davis heads the respected Environmental Health Trust (EHT) which contains a wealth of information on the subject of EMF radiation.
Go here for some very useful fact sheets about protecting yourself, family and home.
• EHT has released posters to raise awareness on cell phone and wireless radiation
• There are firms in Australia and other countries that offer services to screen your home from radiation. Special paints are available to block radiation.
There are cheaper solutions using kitchen foil especially if grounded. If a 5G aerial appears outside your house the walls facing the aerial can be covered in kitchen foil and windows can be covered with special cutains that block the radiation but allow 95% of the light through. Of course, special paints that block rdiation and can be painted over will look much more pleasing but they are expensive.

Note; there is an increasing number of items being sold stating they give you or your home protection from wireless radiation.
e.g. energy braceletes, pendants, stones, harmonisers, stickers erc. Unless the seller can produce independent laboratory research that show they work I would advise against buying them. - Michael

The Truth About 5G - Is It Worth the Risks?  free PDF

A higher definition video can be viewed on Vimeo

I just watched (Aug 2020) the ABC Four corners programme “The truth about 5G” and was left feeling somewhat depressed about what has happened to the ABC. They interviewed a number of organisations and scientists who declared 5G was harmless, one compared it to an AM radio and stressed people have always feared innovation and get carried away with conspiracy theories. I was waiting for them to interview an equal number of scientists and doctors who had peer reviewed research showing the potential harm of 5G. Instead they interviewed a 5G Facegroup organiser, never asked a serious question about safety and tried to discredit her. What happened to the independent, impartial ABC? Another captured organisation?
