HLV Info 078
17.10.2011

Langzeitbestrahlung von Mäusen mit kontinuierlicher Mikrowellenstrahlung von 2,45 GHz führt zu Erhöhung der roten und weißen Blutzellen, signifikanten DNA-Strangbrüchen in Hirnzellen und dem Verlust des räumlichen Erinnerungsvermögens. Die geringe Feldstärke hat auch Auswirkungen auf den Tagesrhythmus der Tiere. Es gibt kaum Experimente, die nach Mikrowellenbestrahlung viele Parameter in einem Organismus untersucht haben, vor allem ist nicht bekannt, welche Rolle der Tag-Nacht-Rhythmus spielt. Dies wurde hier untersucht, zusammen mit Hirn- und Leberfunktionen, Blut- und DNA-Schäden. (CM Charturvedi et al. 2011)



Medizinische Diagnostik: Magnetresonanz schädigt DNA in menschlichen Lymphozyten

Die Wirkung von Magnetresonanz-Geräten auf menschliche Lymphozyten wurde mit verschiedenen Methoden im Labor untersucht und es kam heraus, dass signifikante Schädigungen des genetischen Materials auftreten; sowohl Chromosomen-Aberrationen als auch Erhöhung der Mikrokern-Anzahl und von DNA-Strangbrüchen wurden gefunden. Magnetresonanz-Untersuchungen haben in den letzten Jahren stark zugenommen und mögliche Gesundheitsrisiken sind nicht ausgeschlossen, da das bildgebende Magnetresonanz-Verfahren (MRI) heute ein starkes statisches Feld (0 Hz, 3 Tesla), einen Magnetfeld-Gradienten von 3?3000 Hz und ein Radiofrequenzfeld von 10?400 MHz nutzt. Deshalb sollte geklärt werden, wie sich die Felder auf Lymphozyten auswirken. (Joong Won Lee et al., 2011)

Two new studies have found that electromagnetic fields from Wi-Fi transmitters can alter electrical brain activity and decrease a measure of attention in young adults when performing a memory task. These are the first reports to look at the effects of Wi-Fi on brain function.

The attractiveness of Wi-Fi as a learning tool in schools is significantly decreased if it could be damaging the cognitive abilities and brain development of pupils.

C.P.R. and Radiofrequency Interference

Yesterday, I took a first aid course to help out my sons? hockey team. All teams are required to have someone trained in first aid in case something happens to a player, or spectator at a game.

During my CPR training, we had to learn how to use and incorporate the portable, battery operated defibulator. At one point after doing the 5 reps of 2x breathing and 30x chest compressions, the defib unit will verbally tell you to stop so it can assess the patient and let you know if you need to send a jolt to the heart. If there is too much floor vibration OR cell phone/RF around, it can prevent the unit of assessing the patient. The instructor (a 20 year paramedic) said, if you ever use the defib always get everyone around you to turn their phones off. He mentioned how every public school in Calgary has these units in the school. I asked how it works with the Wi-fi installed in the schools then, if a student or teacher requires CPR and you need to use the defib unit. He said, 'exactly'. He also said thats? the number one reason why cell phones have to be turned off in hospitals.

This then begs the question?.in schools; do the trained teachers/administrators know that RF needs to be turned off beforehand? Are they going to run around looking for main equipment switch to do that while precious time ticks away for the patient??? With airlines now introducing Wi-Fi in planes?what happens to a person who during a flight needs to have CPR with a defib unit? Do flight attendants realize that the Wi-Fi cant? be on?

This really got me thinking on how I am planning to approach the Calgary Public School board. There doesnt? seem to be anything happening here like Edmonton, or B.C. or Ontario?.but I have teachers I help that suffer from it. I talked during our lunch to a teacher who was also taking the first aid course, and gave me her story about her class having headaches all the time, and how her son who is quiet and calm by nature around home and in social settings, but totally distracted and unruly at school.

Re - http://www.thesudburystar.com/ArticleDisplay.aspx?e=3333735

Dear Ms. Richard,

I was very alarmed to see the afore-mentioned headline and photo of a baby holding an iphone, then find no mention at all about the serious health effects associated with radio frequency radiation. As a respected and informed journalist, you should be educating your readers on this issue.

In May of this year, this type of radiation emitted by cellphones and other wireless devices was declared a possible class 2B carcinogen. Long before that, epidemiologist Dr. Devra Davis Ph.D, MPH of the Environmental Oncology Unit at University of Pittsburgh warned of the dangers of exposure to these well-loved devices, especially children with their thinner, developing skulls. She has written a book on the subject, 'Disconnect: The Truth About Cellphone Radiation'. There is a growing body of scientific information on the toxicity of radio- frequency radiation by other doctors and researchers, such as Dr. Magda Havas of Trent U., Dr. Sam Milham, MPH, and Dr. David Carpenter, Co-Editor of the Bioinitiative Report ( http://www.BioInitiative.org ) to name a few.

I am a teacher who is currently off work because the wireless routers in the schools make me ill. I have developed Electrical hypersensitivity (EHS), diagnosed at Womens' College Hospital in Toronto.

Perhaps you could follow up on this article, discussing these perils of the technology, not just the social ones. We as a society have the duty to protect our precious children.


Sincerely, Nancy Miller, OCT
