Wi-Fi now linked to serious medical conditions

It’s called wi-fi sensitivity, and doctors say it’s a very real condition with serious consequences.

Dr. David Carpenter, an Environmental Scientist and expert on wi-fi’s effects said the scientific link between wi-fi and health is clearly emerging.

“There is a body of evidence that is strong. it’s not 100 percent understood, but it’s strong evidence that this is a real syndrome that causes real harm to real people,” he said.​

Well, if doctors say it's real ... then that settles it.

*That* doctor says it's real.

*This* physicist says it's baloney.

More wi-fi means more opportunities to lose sleep to your smartphone/tablet. Its the use of the device not the wifi.

If you are worried about WiFi on your health, you better stay away from:

Microwaves
Cell Phones
TVs
high powered electronics (computers, etc.)
The Sun

I like the way you made the words: "Environmental Scientist" stand out from the rest of your post almost like anyone who has that job is to be viewed with suspicion.

NHE just wanted to properly credit the authorities making the claim here.

So she claims she started feeling this when she installed WiFi in her apartment and that she felt it right away?

Then the article pointed out there is WiFi almost everywhere.

Anyone besides me see an issue there?

But perhaps her WiFi is different, some strange harmonic well out of the norms.

How about this. We put her WiFi on a separate power source and turn it on and off at times unknown to her and while that is happening have her record her symptoms.

I liked it too!

If she has problem with Wi-Fi then she also would have issues with microwave ovens and bluetooth stuff too they all use about the same frequency ranges

Hoyt said it all started when she installed wi-fi throughout her apartment.

Uninstall it then. Problem solved. Apparently the wifi in the rest of the world isn't bothering her, so she's the only one who needs to live without it.

Has everyone forgotten about how transmission lines were causing cancer back in the 80/90s? I suppose wifi is stepping in for them now.

The question is if she has a microwave, since they are on the same frequency. If the microwave isn't casing problems the WiFi shouldn't either (same frequency, lower power).

Well, it is linked to the serious pandemic of people not leaving the house and doing some work/exercise

I am not going to guess on this case. I really don't know much about frequencies and whatnot. I just think that there is a simple solution to her situation and she should take the obvious solution and run with it.

There are some folks for whom everything new is deemed bad.

Just remember, no more than Cat 5 cable.

Fiber would be even better.

Copper woven into the fibers. Copper is already touted for so many health benefits, one might as well piggyback on a snake oil plan!

 

[Lost Angel]

Well, I should be good. I can't get a decent signal in most of my house. I should sue my neighbors though. I have little trouble picking up their full bar sickening WiFi signals.

I remember the cell phones cause brain cancer scare...
