By a hundred electrohypersensitive people

It is urgent to raise collective awareness around the health danger of wireless technologies, which concerns everyone, and to organize better inclusion regarding the disability that electromagnetic waves cause

electrohypersensitive people (EHS) took place on 18 June 2022 - DR

In June, about a hundred of us gathered in one of the last areas protected from the waves in Wallonia. Why ? All of us develop symptoms near wireless telecommunications devices and antennas: wifi, 4G, Bluetooth headsets, DECT landline telephone, telephone antennas near the home... For many of us, the first symptoms could not be diagnosed in time because they were confused with other pathologies, leading to a very disabling evolution of the latter: headaches, burning ears, concentration problems, tingling in the limbs, tinnitus, sleep disorders , nausea and the feeling of a burning brain, extreme fatigue, failing short and long-term memory...

New International Authority on Electromagnetic Fields

New international authority on electromagnetic fields
EMR Australia, posted 29 October 2022

There’s a new and weighty authority on the international EMF landscape. It’s the International Commission on the Biological Effects of Electromagnetic Fields (ICBE-EMF), launched on 18 October and it’s raising the bar for standard-setting worldwide.

The new Commission combines a wealth of expertise. It is a multi-disciplinary consortium of scientists, doctors and related professionals who are, or have been, involved with research on the biological and health effects of electromagnetic fields. Its Chairman, Ronald Melnick is an experienced toxicologist who designed the U.S. National Toxicology Program (NTP) long-term study on rats and mice exposed to radiofrequency radiation (RFR) and managed this study for the first 10 years. (The study ultimately found a link between mobile phone radiation and tumours.)

Call for European Collaborative Action to Protect Cell Phone Users Health

This post basically contains the same information as our previous one (24 Oct.) on the subject.

Call for European collaborative action to protect cell phone users health
By : Phonegate Team • 26 Oct 2022

Our NGO Phonegate Alert is launching an important collaborative action with Europeans for Safe Connections to write to each of the national telecom regulators in the 26 countries of the European Union.

We are counting on both european partner organizations and citizens to take action to achieve real health protection for cell phone users in the wake of the Phonegate industry scandal.

Our common goal is to raise awareness among all official actors of the European telecom regulation by the end of the year.

Washington State: A Back-door Strategy Successfully Leapfrogs Government Gridlock to Stymie Future Wireless Overreach

This press release from the association CLEAR in Langley, Whidbey Island, WA, may be of interest to local activists in the U.S. who are concerned about the accelerating push of huge towers and distributed 5G minicell systems.

Press Release, 27 October 2022

A local activist with organization CLEAR successfully crowd-funded a bullet-proof Campanelli wireless code for the small city of Langley, WA! A first such for the state! 

Local activists in the U.S. are concerned about the accelerating push of huge towers and distributed 5G minicell systems. They have heard often that revising their local city or county telecommunications code is an essential safeguard against FCC-enabled stealth and bullying tactics of Big Wireless. There is an expertly recognized body of recently developed legally protective clauses needed to bolster old codes. They empower governments to take back local control of planning and safety from Big Wireless. The challenge is to get local authorities to act as they fear technical complexity and they tremble about legal trouble from the FCC or big telecoms. They hide behind inaction, citing budget and staff shortages. After navigating a maze of trial and error, Mark Wahl of CLEAR put together a quick, successful pathway for informed citizens to achieve a state-of-the art protective wireless code; it uses a fraction of the usual time, expense, and effort. This challenge-resistant code for the City of Langley, WA is now legally binding and reachable with this link: Langley’s PERSONAL WIRELESS FACILITIES code . 

Europe: Phonegate Collaboration – Info Request Regarding SAR

Phonegate collaboration – info request regarding SAR
Europeans for Safe Connections, 21 Sept. 2022

In cooperation with Dr. Marc Arazi, Phonegate Alert, Europeans for Safe Connections has written a letter to local telecom regulators. We ask if any test on specific absorption rate (SAR) of electromagnetic radiation from mobile phones, tablets and connected objects on bodies has been carried out. If tests have been carried out, we ask for all test reports to be sent to us and made public.

We advise as many countries as possible to send this letter to their local tele regulators. We will publish their answers.

The letters have been translated, sent and (some) answered in these countries:

• Slovakia
• The Netherlands
• Denmark
• The text of the letter to be translated

To: name of national authority that verifies or should verify that the transmitting equipment in the market complies with the standards
From: your name or name of organisation, member of Europeans for Safe Connections

France: List of Cell Phones Withdrawn or Updated for Deception and Endangering Users

List of cell phones withdrawn or updated for deception and endangering users
By : Phonegate Team • 23 Oct 2022

To date, 35 different models of cell phones that are dangerous for the health of users have been either withdrawn from the French market or have had their Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) updated by software.

SAR exceeded for ONEPLUS 7 PRO mobile phone

The ONEPLUS 7 Pro smartphone has been pinned down in a SAR test carried out by the French National Frequency Agency (ANFR). As a reminder, the very limited budget of the French telecoms regulator only allows it to check the compliance of just over one in ten mobile phones sold in France each year. This situation has remained virtually unchanged since our alert was launched in July 2016.

Scientists Call for Moratorium on 5G After Study Shows Regulators Ignoring Health Risks of Radiation

Scientists Call for Moratorium on 5G After Study Shows Regulators Ignoring Health Risks of Radiation
By Michael Nevradakis, Ph.D., Children's Health Defense, 19 October 2022

The authors of a peer-reviewed study published Tuesday warned about the risks of exposure to radiation from 5G technology and said their research shows existing exposure limits for wireless radiation are inadequate, outdated and harmful to human health and wildlife.

Radiofrequencies and health: research in a fast-moving environment

ANSES & IARC scientific conference - Paris, 23 November 2022

Applications of radiofrequency communication technologies have developed considerably over the last 20 years and now include the mobile web, contactless authentication, connected objects, and more. In a context where uses of these technologies, the conditions of exposure and the frequencies used are rapidly changing, and given the disorders and symptoms that have been attributed to them, the research community continues to be highly active in this area, regularly producing new knowledge on the human health effects of radio waves.

New peer-reviewed paper presents scientific case for revision of limits

TUCSON, AZ – October 18, 2022 – The International Commission on the Biological Effects of Electromagnetic Fields (ICBE-EMF) is challenging the safety of current wireless exposure limits to radiofrequency radiation (RFR) and is calling for an independent evaluation.

Published today in the journal Environmental Health, “Scientific evidence invalidates health assumptions underlying the FCC and ICNIRP exposure limit determinations for radiofrequency radiation: implications for 5G,” demonstrates how the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the International Commission on Nonionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) have ignored or inappropriately dismissed hundreds of scientific studies documenting adverse health effects at exposures below the threshold dose claimed by these agencies, which was used to establish human exposure limits. The authors argue that the threshold, based on science from the 1980s – before cell phones were ubiquitous -- is wrong, and these exposure limits based on this threshold do not adequately protect workers, children, people with electromagnetic hypersensitivity, and the public from exposure to the nonionizing radiation from wireless data transmission.
