GOOD NEWS FROM THE UK

 59 year old social worker wins ‘early ill health retirement’ for disabling ‘Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS) – Phire Medical

Excerpt from the press release by Dr Erica Mallery-Blythe:

"The Independent Registered Medical Practitioner (IRMP) report concludes: “Mrs. Burns has a medical condition that renders her permanently incapable of undertaking any gainful work. There currently are no treatments available for her condition; avoidance of emissions is the only way to significantly reduce her symptoms.”
 https://phiremedical.org/59-year-old-social-worker-wins-early-ill-health-retirement-for-disabling-electromagnetic-hypersensitivity-ehs/

Dr Mallery-Blythe explains:

''There is no legal precedent here as this case never went to court. It is useful, no doubt and can be referenced by others in a similar situation, but no 'legal precedent' has been set here and the 'healthcare system' is far broader than one IRMP! Just because one IRMP recognised it, does not create an obligation for others to do the same (although it certainly helps pave the way).
.... all this being said.... I am also involved in another case which will be truly precedent setting as it is being held in the Upper Tier Tribunal Court.''

Havana Syndrome' Victims to Receive Compensation
After years of investigations and legislative pressure from Congress on their behalf, some victims of "Havana syndrome" are to receive $100,000 to $200,000 each in compensation. The health problems first reported by diplomats and intelligence officials include headaches, vision problems, dizziness, and brain fog.
Speculation had raged for years that a foreign enemy was using a weapon of some sort on Americans. But the CIA has said it's found no evidence of that, though it's also said pulsed electromagnetic energy devices could be the culprits."

Don’t Believe The Hype, The Billionaire Space Race Is Killing Earth

In addition to polluting the skies with satellites that emit radiation to every part of the earth, the gases that result from launches are polluting and heating the upper atmosphere, adding to the problem of warming an already "too hot" earth.

NTIA Preference for Fiber
A US agency (National Telecommuncations & Information Administration) is responsible for determining how $42.5 billion in grant funds is allotted for improving broadband service. It has determined that many factors make fiber their preferred choice -- factors besides speed (none of which are health- or environment-related.) The wireless industry, of course, is complaining and is lobbying strongly against this decision, even threatening lawsuits.

Why size matters
https://preview.mailerlite.com/m7d5e3c6k0/1975014815457875340/q0i2/

Excerpt :
When it comes to humans and animals, Professor Om Gandhi says, ‘The max. absorption occurs when the wavelength is approximately twice the size of the human or the animal. That means, for a man with an average height of 175cm, maximum absorption would occur at a frequency of 68 MHz. For a woman with an average height of 150cm, maximum absorption would be approximately 80 MHz.’ Gandhi confirmed these calculations with experiments he conducted as well. For insects and smaller animals such as birds, maximum radiation will be absorbed at the higher frequencies of 20-25 GHz. It’s not just body length that is important either. There is also the length of other critical organs – such as the heart or the brain.

NEW PAPERS

Posted by Joel Moskowitz of SaferEMR.com
 Wireless radiation exposure limits are based on smoke and mirrors
A new peer-reviewed paper published in the journal, Reviews of Environmental Health, found that the International Commission for Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) bases its recommended exposure limits for wireless (i.e., radio frequency (RF)) radiation primarily on research produced by its own members, their former students and close colleagues. ICNIRP claims that their "thermal-only paradigm" "is consistent with current scientific understanding" despite the fact that the predominance of peer-reviewed research finds non-thermal effects.

Effects of Exposure to Electromagnetic Fields: Thirty years of research

Dr. Henry Lai, Professor Emeritus at the University of Washington and Editor Emeritus of the journal, Electromagnetic Biology and Medicine, has compiled 1,962 summaries of the research on the biologic and health effects of exposure to RFR and ELF EMF. His set of abstracts which cover the period from 1990 to April 2022
Overall, 76% (n=796) of 1,046 radio frequency radiation (RFR) studies reported significant effects. Additionally, 88% (n=810) of 916 extremely low frequency (ELF) and static electromagnetic field studies found significant effects.
Overall, 82% (n=1,608) studies of non-ionizing electromagnetic fields reported significant biologic effects.

Mercury Release from Dental Amalgam Fillings and Microleakage? A Systematic Review

"Our review shows that exposure to static magnetic fields (SMF) such as those generated by MRI, electromagnetic fields (EMF) such as those produced by mobile phones; ionizing electromagnetic radiations such as X-rays and non- Ionizing electromagnetic radiation such as lasers and light cure devices can significantly increase the release of mercury from dental amalgam restorations and/or cause microleakage."

Journal of the National Cancer Institute publishes two letters critical of UK Million Women Cell Phone/Brain Tumor Study

Dr. Linda Birnbaum was the Director of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, one of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and the National Toxicology Program (NTP) from 2009 to 2019.

Excerpts
"... a recent analysis of self-reported cell phone use of this original cohort by Shuz et al. 1 contains a number of serious errors and flaws of exposure measurement that undermine the validity of their widely publicized finding purporting that there is no risk of brain cancer from cell phone radiofrequency radiation (RFR) 1."
"Further, the National Toxicology Program (NTP) and Ramazzini Institute (RI)  experimental animal studies are inaccurately criticized as based on small numbers, inconsistency across species, and excessively high exposures 3,4."
"Current outdated regulatory limits for phone RFR rest on the incorrect long held assumption that non thermal levels are safe."
"The majority of animal and cell studies have found nonionizing RFR can induce oxidative stress- a key characteristic of human carcinogens and a way that RFR can initiate or promote tumor development as well as play a role in the development of other diseases 5.
Recent experimental and epidemiological studies indicate that RFR also induces cancers of the thyroid and breast 6,7. DNA damage and cancer in these state of the art studies signal the need for the public to reduce exposures to RFR now."

2nd letter, by Joel M Moskowitz of UC Berkeley

Excerpts
"Like the Danish Cohort study (1), the recent paper by Schüz et al. (2) which examined cellular telephone use and brain tumor risk in the Million Women Study suffered from poor exposure assessment which likely contributed to exposure misclassification. Moreover, participant attrition in this study was high (68%), and the study was underpowered as the analysis sample included few participants with heavier cell phone use, the group with the greatest brain tumor risk (2)."
"Although the Schüz et al. paper (2) provides sound advice to 'reduce unnecessary exposures,' the abstract in this paper is a disservice to public health because it ends with a misleading assertion: 'Our findings support the accumulating evidence that cellular telephone use under usual conditions does not increase brain tumor incidence.'  How can the authors of this paper argue that their results apply to 'usual conditions' when the amount of cell phone use in their analysis sample was much less than 'usual' for the United Kingdom (UK)?"
"... a recent meta-analysis of 46 case-control studies (6) found significantly increased brain tumor incidence with cumulative call time ≥ 1,000 hours (about 17 minutes per day over a 10-year period). Furthermore, Philips et al. (7) examined brain tumor incidence in England from 1995-2015 and found a two-fold increase in the standardized incidence of the most common malignant brain tumor, glioblastoma multiforme, along with reduced incidence of lower grade brain tumors which could indicate a tumor promotion effect from the increased uptake in cell phone use during this time period."
"In sum, the Schüz et al. study (2) provides no assurance of safety from brain tumors for most cell phone users, especially those who start using cell phones at a younger age than the middle-aged and elderly women who participated in this study."

The Study Authors' Response

Response to Moskowitz and Birnbaum, Taylor, Baldwin et al.
Schüz, Joachim, Pirie, Kirstin, Reeves, Gillian K, Floud, Sarah, Beral, Valerie. Response to Moskowitz and Birnbaum, Taylor, Baldwin et al. JNCI: Journal of the National Cancer Institute. 2022. doi: 10.1093/jnci/djac111.

Excerpts
" We do agree, however, with both Moskowitz (1) and Birnbaum et al. (6) that our study does not include many heavy users of cellular phones."
 
"A large international prospective study of cellular telephone users including also men and younger women is underway [7] but results have not been published yet. Overall, our findings and those from other studies support our carefully worded conclusion that 'cellular telephone use under usual conditions [our emphasis] does not increase brain tumor incidence'. However, advising heavy users on how to reduce unnecessary exposures remains a good precautionary approach."

OLDIES BUT GOODIES

The Prevalence of People With Restricted Access to Work in Man-Made Electromagnetic Environments

By Michael Bevington

2019-01-18 Journal of Environment and Health Science

Abstract

Some surveys have identified people who have restricted access to work in environments with man-made electromagnetic exposures. This study attempts to determine their prevalence, an aspect not previously investigated in its own right. It is based on analyses of the two different types of surveys of people with Idiopathic Environmental Intolerance attributed to Electromagnetic Fields (IEI-EMF), or Electromagnetic Hyper-Sensitivity (EHS), either of the general population or of people with IEI-EMF/EHS. In addition, there are different definitions of IEI-EMF/EHS, with a range of subconscious, mild, moderate or severe symptoms, potentially leading in three stages to hyper-sensitivity. The current evidence is assessed as indicating that, in addition to subconscious sensitivity, the prevalence of IEI-EMF/EHS is between about 5.0 and 30 per cent of the general population for mild cases, 1.5 and 5.0 per cent for moderate cases and < 1.5 per cent for severe cases. The prevalence of people restricted in their access to work in a man-made electromagnetic environment is estimated at 0.65 per cent of the general population, at about 18% of the general population with moderate IEI-EMF/EHS. The estimate of 0.65% equates to 435,500 people in the UK’s population of 67 million. Some reasons for possible under-reporting are discussed. Adjustments can enable some people with this disability to remain in employment, suggesting that rates of restriction in access to work may fall as employers become aware of what adjustments are needed.
