Electromagnetic Radiation
By Chellis Glendinning - Journalist Guest - 24/10/2012
Not surprisingly, the Authority for the Supervision and Regulation of
Telecommunications and Transport has said a few days ago that the
electromagnetic emissions such as those from antennas, iPhones, Wi-Fi,
flash drives, etc. they have no biological effect.
In countries with more technological development that Bolivia is a
very long tradition of statements like that. Forked Tongues companies
and governments already told us before atomic radiation, asbestos,
pesticides, hormones, lead, plastics, etc.. are harmless to the health
of living beings. And in this case is no different.
The argument is always that there are not enough scientific research.
Even after Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Three Mile Island and Chernobyl, the
U.S. government was still saying that nuclear radiation is not
harmful! On electromagnetic radiation, multiple investigations, many
of them made by companies in the industry, for military organizations,
government, universities and independent researchers showing that
radiation have adverse effects on human health. Data that, apparently,
the ATT could not find on Google.
What is truly amazing is that the World Health Organization (WHO) has
second thoughts about it. In 2011 electromagnetic radiation classified
in category 2B class for cancer.
But there is another twist in the story: In 2002 Gro Harlem
Brundtland, a medical doctor, former prime minister of Norway and then
above the head of the WHO, said that the phones were banned in offices
in Genoa. Personally, she felt sick if a cell was four feet away from
her. But information about the health of the head of the health
organization, published March 9, 2002 in Dagbladet, was ignored by
every newspaper in the world and five months after Brundtland be
leaving his position as the head of the WHO.
She is the victim of electromagnetic radiation hypersensitivity (EHS).
It is dangerous for everyone, but some people may feel it immediately.
According to the Commission for Electromagnetic Safety, the overall
incidence of EHS has grown in recent years. Says researcher Dr. Magda
Havas of Trent University in Canada than in countries where these
technologies have been around longer than in Bolivia, 34 percent of
the population has EHS, 3 percent severely. With the advent of 4G
technologies such as satellite coverage in the U.S. and their own
personal devices with Wi-Fi system, my personal observation is that
more people are falling to the EHS and without a healthy place to
live, most are committing suicide . And as science journalist says the
New York Times, Blake Levitt, the story of today produces statistics
tomorrow.
According to Havas and her partner Dr. Olle Johansson of the
Karolinska Institute in Sweden, EHS symptoms may include mental
confusion, memory loss, dizziness, headache, nausea, ringing in the
ears, heart arrhythmias, chest pressure , muscle and joint pain, hair
loss, hearing loss, vision loss, impaired immune system, inflammation,
anxiety, depression and insomnia. Later may develop cancers, heart
attacks, leukemia, broken genes, birth defects and more.
Sadly, we can expect the arrival of medical problems such as
proliferating more and more sources of radiation here in Bolivia.
There are personal things that a family can do, such as installing
cable internet, turn off your Wi-Fi when not using the connection and
use old equipment.
But in the end the solution will come when people demand to live in a healthy world.The author is a psychologist and writer
