Fast Track to New York 5G Microwaved City

-By Les Jamieson

We’ve been living in a wireless world since the earliest cell phone and home WiFi networks, roughly 30 years. Now we’re up to the Fifth Generation of wireless transmission technology commonly known as 5G. For decades more there have been hundreds of scientists warning of adverse impacts of electromagnetic frequencies on the health of humans, animals, and plant life. There have been widespread adverse impacts from proximity to even 4G cell phone towers resulting in cancers and deaths. The Ramazzini Institute in Italy based its study which began in 2005 on lower levels of radio frequency radiation than what wireless antennas are emitting. Just as alarming is that the telecoms and utilities installing digital meters claim they are in compliance with FCC safety guidelines set back in 1996, far before the proliferation of wireless antennas and devices we are now surrounded by. Even before 5G, a consortium of 240 scientists made an appeal to the United Nations for a global moratorium.

When researching the scope of wireless transmission equipment installed in urban areas, the term “densification” arises. For residents of New York City, with over 11,600 pole-mounted wireless antennas, and innumerable buildings with roof-top antennas, our neighborhoods have experienced densification over recent years. In all but a few sections of the city, we can’t walk 3 blocks without being exposed to a wireless transmitter. The major telecoms each show maps and brag on how much 5G coverage they offer. Now, we are seeing 5G Jumbo Poles crop up in front of people’s dwellings, with no warning, as part of a plan to install 4,000 of these futuristic looking 30-ft. towers that would be more appropriate in a Mad Max sci-fi shock film in which humanity is taken to the brink. 

If we were to ask, “Has there been long term studies on the safety of 5G wireless transmission?”, the answer would be no. Let’s remember that in early 2022 there were mainstream news headlines about the airline industry complaining that 5G towers near airports would emit frequencies causing disruption to airline navigation systems. It shouldn’t be hard to imagine what these frequencies do to living cells. According to the Environmental Health Trust, an independent non-profit research group, “Peer-reviewed research has linked a myriad of adverse effects to wireless radiofrequency radiation including brain cancer, breast cancer, DNA damage, thyroid cancer, memory damage, sperm damage, brain damage, headaches, diabetes, hyperactivity, liver damage, oxidative stress, behavior problems, synergistic effects, altered brain activity, tumor promotion, impaired growth and more.” Furthermore, the type of electromagnetic frequencies we are being inundated by contains irregular bursts lasting milliseconds called “pulsed-modulated” radiation. The National Institute of Health’s Pubmed database has articles on this issue, including a study saying “that pulse-modulated RF radiation causes oxidative injury in liver, lung, testis and heart tissues mediated by lipid peroxidation, increased level of NOx and suppression of antioxidant defense mechanism.” Is all this just being unduly concerned over an imagined danger that we can disregard? According to Dr. Martin Pall, PhD, “Because all wireless communications devices communicate via modulating pulsations, and the smarter they are the more they pulse, and therefore, more dangerous they will tend to be.  The industry universally ignores the great importance of pulsation.”

From the telecom industry standpoint, the bottom line is that 5G is good for their bottom line. They get to sell another generation of cell phones and related hardware. But buyer beware of the claim that we need a densified forest of thousands of 5G Jumbo Poles and transmitters throughout the city for better cell phone reception and capacity for “smart home” gadgets. Much smaller relay transmitters are available for that purpose. 

Think of scenarios in which industries were able to release toxic waste into communities due to an absence of regulations, not to mention an absence of ethics. Over several years, maybe a few decades, a cluster of diseases and suffering became evident. There are far too many examples of products distributed for mass consumption such as asbestos, tobacco products, pharmaceutical drugs, Teflon, and “forever chemicals”, that were insufficiently tested and wound up causing irreparable harms. We have a duty to avoid this same scenario. We must realize that countries such as Italy, India, Russia, China, and many more have far stricter regulations on wireless transmission levels. For institutions to be in compliance with the American Disabilities Act, people disabled due to electromagnetic sensitivity must be accommodated. Insurance companies refuse to cover harms resulting from electromagnetic radiation. These points should be sobering for anyone who would categorize this information as “conspiracy theory”.

In summary, a thorough knowledge based on independent, peer-reviewed science must be objectively reviewed to understand the impact of 5G, and all wireless technologies on our health, economics, privacy, cyber-security, energy consumption, and a myriad of effects on our environment. Until our policy makers and residents gain this understanding, we would be wise to make better use of our public spaces and densify them with living pole structures, namely, trees.

      I have been completely isolated by my electromagnetic hypersensitivity that I became aware of when I had to upgrade from an iPhone 4 to a 5C and noticed my hands aching…YOU WON’T BELIEVE WHERE THAT TOOK ME but I wrote a document to TRY to show you: https://neighborsorganizingagainsttrespassingtechnology.blog/2022/10/26/public-health-warning-document-w-instructions-for-action/

      As the founder of the California Brain Tumor Association and the wife of a man who has had 2 craniotomies to remove brain tumors attributed to his cell phone use, I couldn’t agree more. The FCC and telecom (with a revolving door) have absolutely no concern for public health- only for their bottom dollar. My colleagues and I work hard to stop this madness but sadly progress is slow. If 5G shows up outside your home fight like hell.

      My children, neighbors and I were all injured by a cell installation in Pittsfield, MA. Our city asked Verizon to remove the tower, and then issued a court order. Our lives have been upended with neighbors sick and displaced. Everyone has a right to be protected from harmful RF EMF emissions from antennas. We must demand it. Folks can read more about our story on facebook.com/Pittsfieldcell. This is a great article and the public has a right to know.

      Where I live, 5G is causing massive damage to insects (especially) as well as other wildlife. It is also causing soil acidification as well as mutant crops and flowers. See https://smartmeterharm.org/2022/03/27/5g-cell-towers-cause-massive-insect-decline-on-greek-island-of-samos/
      5G is nothing short of a catastrophe, but never think that only 5G is a problem. Wireless technology has been making people sick and affecting nature since the first mobile phone was invented, and the effects are cumulative.

      i have a very small circle of friends.. i knew of at least 4 people who got a brain tumor in the early days of cell phones.. some of them succumbed to it.. believe all the negativity you hear about it. it is TRUE.

      It’s funny how my reply to this article was censored. I thought Westview was supposed to be a newspaper, not a propaganda aggregator that only publishes the voices that they want to hear.

      I’m keeping track of all of my posts that have been deleted or not approved, because they are not comments that challenge the opinions of the article.

      To selectively approve pro-article posts, while censoring legitimate concerns, and feedback, is not only shameful, but morally and ethically wrong as a news organization.

      I wonder if other publications will be interested in hearing about the way you censor your comment section. Shame on you.

      Still not approving my posts? George has always welcomed debate and other insights into the stories in WVN.

      It looks like you are choosing to censor my comments, so time to take this to other publications (the fact that you selectively censor some comments, while approving all the posts that agree with your article.

      What happened to the idea of a free press with open exchange? Does George even get to read these? Because I can’t imagine he would support censorship!

      Shame on you!
