A recomendation of the HESA report
I have a concern with regard to the collection of case reports on wifi sensitive people, it is a wonderful initiative in Canada, BUT - can we ensure that the information will not be collected by Health Canada? It should not be collected by the same institution that fails to update their guidelines for the very same exposure that they are collecting.
There are many examples from past collection efforts, for other conditions, showing how difficult it is to correctly collect data and how easy it is to mis-classify certain symptoms. If Health Canada alone will collect these data, I predict huge scandals in the future about issues, such as the fact that they might have various cut-offs for inclusion into the data base, or definitions of symptoms that are or are not included.
The information should be collected by an independent group of scientists that should include physicians, basic researchers, epidemiologists, and representatives from the public. There are many individuals who would be happy to participate in this important initiative.
