Radiation sickness is now so prevalent in Germany that 175 doctors have signed the Bramberger Appeal, a document
calling the situation a "medical disaster." It asks the German government to initiate a national public health investigation.
This appeal closely follows the Freiburger Appeal, signed by thousands of German doctors who say they are dealing with an
epidemic of severe and chronic diseases among both old and young patients exposed to wireless microwave radiation. The head
of the cancer registry in Berlin found that one urban area with cellular antennas had a breast cancer rate seven times the
national average.31
Sweden was one of the first nations to go wireless. Swedish neuroscientist, Dr. Olle Johansson, with
hundreds of published papers to his credit, said that a national epidemic of illness and disability was unleashed by the wireless
revolution. Long periods of sick leave, attempted suicides and industrial accidents all increased simultaneously with introduction
of mobile phone radiation. Ninety-nine percent of the Swedish population is now under duress of powerful third generation
masts. Johansson reports that people are plagued with sleep disorders, chronic fatigue that does not respond to rest, difficulties
with cognitive function and serious blood problems. Recurrent headaches and migraines are a "substantial public health problem,"
he says.32
Rooftop transmitters, which readily pass microwave radiation into structures, can be a death sentence. Across
the world there are reports of cancer clusters and extreme illness in office buildings and multi-tenant dwellings where antennas
are placed on rooftops directly over workers and tenants. In 2006, the top floors of a Melbourne University office building
were closed after a brain tumor cluster drew media attention to the risks of communications transmitters on top of the building.33
Likewise, ABC’s Brisbane television complex, topped with satellite dishes and radio antennas, was the site of a well-publicized
breast cancer cluster among workers.34…….
Every citizen is now condemned to protect and defend himself
against radiation assault as best he can. There have been a number of lawsuits against the radiation industry since cell towers
began going up in backyards across the nation. In 2001, a group action lawsuit was filed in South Bend, Indiana, by families
living in close proximity to towers. The complaint describes health effects suffered by the plaintiffs, including heart palpitations,
interference with hearing, recurring headaches, short term memory loss, sleep disturbances, multiple tumors, glandular problems,
chronic fatigue, allergies, weakened immune system, miscarriage and inability to learn.19
The South Bend suit was settled
out of court on the basis of nuisance and decreased property values. Health claims don’t hold water if emissions are
within FCC exposure standards. This case is valuable for understanding the lunacy of FCC standards. The sick families enlisted
the help of radiation consultant Bill Curry, who honed his expertise as an engineer for Argonne and Livermore labs. Dr. Curry
found that one of the towers was irradiating homes at over 65 microwatts per square centimeter.20 This power density is well
within federal exposure standards, which allow any neighborhood to be zapped with at least 580 microwatts per square centimeter,
or higher, depending on the frequencies. If the families were sick at 65 microwatts/cm22 what would they be at 580? Considering
that the Soviets used furtive Cold War microwave bombardment to make US embassy personal radiation-sick at an average exposure
level of only .01 microwatts/cm2, America’s clear and
present danger is obvious.21…….
Carlo said
the registry has heard from thousands of people who believe that their illnesses, including brain and eye cancers, are due
to telecommunications radiation from both wireless phones and tower transmitters
In the last two years, the registry has
seen an upsurge in reports as transmitters become ever more energetically dangerous in order to accommodate increased data
flow for new, multi-media technologies.
We can only guess how many Americans are in their graves today from microwave assault.
Arthur Firstenberg, who founded the Cellular Phone Task Force, wrote that, on November 14, 1996, New York City’s first
digital cellular provider activated thousands of PCS antennae newly erected on the rooftops of apartment buildings. Health
authorities reported that a severe and lingering flu hit the city that same week. In response to its classified newspaper
ad advising that radiation sickness is similar to flu, the Task Force heard back from hundreds of people who reported sudden
onset symptoms synchronous to microwave startup—symptoms similar to stroke, heart attack and nervous breakdown.
Firstenberg
gathered statistics from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and analyzed weekly mortality statistics published for 122 U.S.
cities. Each of dozens of cities recorded a 10-25 percent increase in mortality, lasting two to three months, beginning in
the week during which that city’s first digital cell phone network began commercial service. Sites with no cellular
system start up in the same time period showed no abnormal increases in mortality.23
Back in 1994 Dr Cherry was
invited by a local primary school (Opawa) to present information on the possible health effects of a cell site that was proposed
to be installed next to the infant department of the school. He explained to the school meeting that the law contains the
precautionary approach of having to deal with potential adverse effects on the environment including people and children.
Integrating his knowledge from classical physics involving resonant absorption, showed that the frequency of the cellphone
radiation produced a half wavelength that match the child's size. Therefore children were highly vulnerable for any possible
health effects. He therefore recommended that the school declined the offer. The school voted by over 80 percent to reject
the offer to install a cell site adjacent to the infant teaching block.
Since this time most of Professor Cherry's research
had been focused on the health effects of electromagnetic fields and radiation. In November 1994 he was an expert witness
in the first cell site base station appeal in New Zealand assisting the local residents to win the case by the court rejecting
the request by BellSouth for a 200µW/cm² public exposure standard. The court set the allowable level at 2µW/cm², based on
evidence of childhood leukaemia at 2.4µW/cm², the law requiring it to be avoided. Dr Cherry had been surprised to find how
much published science there is to show that across the electromagnetic spectrum the ELF fields and RF/MW radiation damage
the cellular DNA, alter cellular calcium ions, reduce melatonin, and altar many cellular functions. Radiofrequency and Microwaves,
including cell phone radiation, are genotoxic shown by many independent studies published since the first in 1959. Therefore
they are carcinogenic. Microwaves also open the Blood Brain Barrier, letting natural and external brain damaging chemicals
into the brain and CNS. Dr Cherry also discovered that epidemiological studies of exposed workers and the residents confirm,
through classical public health assessment, that electromagnetic fields and radiation are a Ubiquitous Universal Genotoxic
Carcinogen, causing increased rates of Cancer, Cardiac, Reproductive and Neurological health effects in exposed human populations,
with a safe level of zero exposure.
Dr Cherry's standing and credibility was confirmed on 1 January 2002 by the award
of a Royal Honour of Officer of New Zealand Order of Merit (O.N.Z.M.). The citation for his award shows that it is for his
services to Science, Education and Community, including his research and teaching work on Environmental Epidemiology and the
health effects of electromagnetic radiation.
Dr Cherry's own research, published in the Natural Hazards journal, Cherry
(2002), shows that a natural electromagnetic signal, called the Schumann Resonances, generated by a tropical thunderstorms,
and radiating around the world in the resonant cavity created between earth s surface and the bottom layer of the ionosphere,
is resonantly absorbed, detected and responded to by the brain because of the ELF frequency matching the frequency range of
the spectrum of the brain EEG rhythms.
The Schumann Resonance signals provide synchronization of the ELF, daily and annual
functions of the brain. The latter two are in support of the normal diurnal and seasonal solar activity. This provides the
biophysically plausible mechanism to explain how sunspots on the sun, solar storms and sunspot cycles modulate cancer, cardiac,
reproductive and neurological effects through modulating the melatonin/serotonin cycle in human populations. This confirms
the importance of and sensitivity of the melatonin protective activity, including being a highly potent antioxidant being
with naturally produced (by breathing) oxygen free radicals.
Cherry (2002) predicted that since electrical workers and
physiotherapists are occupationally exposed to electromagnetic fields that are about a million times higher than the Schumann
Resonance signal, would have higher rates of cancer, cardiac reproductive and neurological effects. Multiple independent epidemiological
studies confirm that this is true. It is also scientifically sensible and proven that placing a cellular telephone next to
your head, producing a signal around a billion times stronger than the Schumann Resonance signal, causes serious alterations
of brain activity, leading to elevated rates of a road accidents, headaches, nausea, dizziness, loss of concentration and
memory, DNA damage and enhanced cell death rates, and significant increases in brain cancer rates. All of this is confirmed
by many published studies. Biological organs, including the brain, are flexible, variable and adoptive biological organs.
For the brain s electromagnetic thinking activity to be coherent and stable enough for intelligence
to develop, Dr Cherry
had concluded that the ELF synchronization of the brain electromagnetic activity by the Schumann Resonance Signal in a has
provided a mechanism that allowed intelligence to develop.
The second effect that I want to focus on, which has been proven
in the laboratory, should by itself have been enough to shut down this industry and should be enough to scare away anyone
from ever using a cell phone again. I call it the “smoking gun” of cell phone experiments. Like most biological
effects of microwave radiation, this has nothing to do with heating.
The brain is protected by tight junctions between
adjacent cells of capillary walls, the so-called blood-brain barrier, which, like a border patrol, lets nutrients pass through
from the blood to the brain, but keeps toxic substances out. Since 1988, researchers in the laboratory of a Swedish neurosurgeon,
Leif Salford, have been running variations on this simple experiment: they expose young laboratory rats to either a cell phone
or other source of microwave radiation, and later they sacrifice the animals and look for albumin in their brain tissue. Albumin
is a protein that is a normal component of blood but that does not normally cross the blood-brain barrier. The presence of
albumin in brain tissue is always a sign that blood vessels have been damaged and that the brain has lost some of its protection.
