Man (40) moves out of home due to 5G: Radiation endangers health.
05 Jul
A Revealing Case Study from Sweden
A recent case study reports that a forty-year-old man developed serious health problems after a 5G base station was installed 20 meters from his home. The complaints he developed are typical of Microwave Syndrome, or Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS). After a week, the man could no longer stay in his home due to the severity of the symptoms. Home microwave radiation measurements showed extremely high levels of radiation from the 5G base station, confirming many scientists’ early warnings that 5G would lead to a massive increase in radiation.
Typical symptoms of Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS)
The man developed a severe headache, tingling and burning sensations in his body, serious heart problems in the form of a high and irregular pulse and pain in the heart region. In addition, his short-term memory deteriorated significantly, he was abnormally tired, had trouble sleeping, and developed a tendency toward depression. All symptoms have long been known as an effect of long-term exposure to microwave radiation such as that emitted by mobile telephone base stations. These were referred to decades ago as microwave syndrome or microwave disease. The man’s body parts also swelled, causing him difficulty wearing his shoes.
After moving to another home, where the radiation was significantly lower and without 5G radiation, the man recovered and the symptoms gradually disappeared. But each time the man visited his home near the 5G base station, the symptoms returned relatively quickly and took longer to subside after each visit.
Measurements of radiation in the home were carried out twice. The first time the radiation was measured with a Safe and Sound Pro II, which indicated that the radiation in several rooms in the home reached the maximum levels for the meter, i.e. above 3,180,000 μW/m2 measured as a peak value. These levels are the highest measured to date in the 5G health impact case studies. A follow-up measurement used a Narda meter, which measures so-called “root mean square” (RMS) values. These measurements in RMS showed maximum values of 997,274 μW/m2 in the living room and 1,368,021 μW/m2 in one of the bedrooms.
The measured levels are extremely high compared to the levels known to cause health problems from previous generations of mobile telephony. Repeated studies have shown that from levels above 100-500 μW/m2 the risk of developing similar symptoms increases with chronic exposure to GSM or 3G radiation. These studies form the basis for recommendations from various organizations that people should not be exposed to residential radiation levels higher than between 1-100 μW/m2, depending on location (bedroom or not), sensitivity or technology used.
For example, the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe recommended in a resolution adopted in 2011 that exposure should not exceed 100 μW/m2. The Salzburg Health Department has recommended a maximum of 1 μW/m2 and the EuropaEM EMF guidelines recommend between 1-100 μW/m2. The Netherlands, on the other hand, uses the ICNIRP guidelines and values of 10,000,000 μW/m2 are permitted.
Radiation Levels and Associated Health Symptoms
This case study underlines the urgency of revising current radiation exposure standards, especially with the emergence of 5G technology. This man’s story illustrates the potential health risks and the need for more independent research into the long-term effects of microwave radiation. As telecom companies continue to expand their networks, it is crucial that policymakers and health authorities listen to the warnings of scientists and doctors. Only by taking proactive measures can we create a future where technological progress goes hand in hand with the health and safety of the population.
