New Studies Show Laptops and Cellphones Adversely Affect Children and Fetuses

USA - Yale University
Fetal Radiofrequency Radiation Exposure From 800-1900 Mhz-Rated Cellular Telephones Affects Neurodevelopment and Behavior in Mice

“Here we demonstrate that fetal exposure to 800–1900 Mhz-rated radiofrequency radiation from cellular telephones leads to behavioral and neurophysiological alterations that persist into adulthood...The significant trend between the groups treated for 0, 9, 15, and 24 hours/day demonstrates that the effects are directly proportional to usage time... ”

Exposure to Electromagnetic Fields From Laptop Use of “Laptop” Computers

Exposure to Electromagnetic Fields From Laptop Use of “Laptop” Computers

“In the LTCs analyzed, EMF values (range 1.8–6 μT) are within International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation (NIR) Protection (ICNIRP) guidelines, but are considerably higher than the values recommended by 2 recent guidelines for computer monitors magnetic field emissions, MPR II (Swedish Board for Technical Accreditation)

and TCO (Swedish Confederation of Professional Employees), and those considered risky for tumor development... the power supply induces strong intracorporal electric current densities in the fetus and in the adult subject, which are respectively 182–263% and 71–483% higher than ICNIRP 98 basic restriction recommended to prevent adverse health effects.”

Psychophysiological Indicators for Child Users of Mobile Communication. Message 1: Present State of the Problem

Message 2: Results of Four-year Monitoring

"It has been shown that the children’s organism is more sensitive to this kind of exposure than the adult one. We have identified the following major trends of the psychophysiological indicators for child users of mobile communication: an increased number of phonemic perception disorders, abatement of efficiency, reduced indicators for the arbitrary and semantic memory, and increased fatigue. A steady decline of the parameters from high values to bottom standards has been found."

Brain proteome response following whole body exposure of mice to mobile phone or wireless DECT base radiation (* Note DECT cordless phone bases emits the SAME 2.4 GHz frequency as Wi-Fi routers and devices)

"The observed protein expression changes may be related to brain plasticity alterations, indicative of oxidative stress in the nervous system or involved in apoptosis and might potentially explain human health hazards reported so far, such as headaches, sleep disturbance, fatigue, memory deficits, and brain tumor long-term induction under similar exposure conditions."

Wi-Fi Safety Information:
Parents to Parents - Your Right to Know

Parents to Parents - Your Right to Know: Wi-Fi Safety Information

by Kamloops Concerned Parents Committee:

Health Canada says exposure to Wi-Fi is safe, yet some students in schools with Wi-Fi are complaining of ill health that includes headaches, dizziness, nausea, weakness, anxiety, heart palpitations, memory loss and attention deficit, and auditory and visual distortions. These are all early symptoms of microwave sickness.

To begin with, it must be explained how Health Canada has determined that being exposed to microwave radiation for 1200 hours per year is ‘safe.’ They have used a mannequin, for ‘ethical’ reasons, in a 6 minute test to see if heating occurred in the soapy liquid inside the unit to a level they deem ‘unsafe.’ Health Canada, who prefers to call microwaves ‘energy’, says this: “RF fields will penetrate into biological tissue to a depth that is dependent on the field strength, frequency and orientation of the incident RF field.” Yet, if heating doesn’t occur in their mannequin, they continue to say there are ‘no effects’, ignoring the indisputable effects

of this penetration of tissue. This is like saying cigarettes aren’t dangerous unless they burn you, and this is where their science and reality drift apart.

Wi-Fi transmitters broadcast 2.4 billion cycles of microwave frequency/second. The problem with this is that there are conductors (your children) that absorb these electrical signals, which are not compatible with the body’s natural frequencies. In between the router and computer/device is the child, who by nature is absorbing these unnatural signals which the body MUST obey. Microwaves are used because they penetrate; this is why if you use a cell phone in a building it will work. These signals penetrate concrete, or in this case… your child. This penetration is a problem, because it disrupts the electrical signals that run the entire body, and it will now vibrate the device (your child’s cells) billions of times per second, causing induction and eventual electrical failure. Electrical failure in humans = disease. It should be noted that the majority of children with healthy immune systems will initially show little or no effect from induction as their immune systems are repairing the damage, but over time this gives way as the body’s defenses are weakened and it can no longer repair the damage.

So, because your child’s tissues do not ‘heat’ after 6 min. of exposure, Health Canada is essentially saying “We deem this the safe level to continuously microwave children ” or, “Yes, this will cause induction in their bodies, but as long as they don’t heat up to X level they are ok.” This is where common sense and science meet; the difference being that they have chosen “heat effect science”, whereas we have chosen “this is causing induction in humans” science.

The World Health Organization, in May 2011, classified radiation emitted from wireless devices as a possible human carcinogen, in the same category as lead and DDT. Health Canada claims to “support WHO recommendations and the findings of the IARC”, yet this classification has not affected Health Canada limits on exposure or School Board policy. They can’t get Wi-Fi into schools fast enough.

The placement of this technology in our schools without informed consent is alarming. Only parents have the legal right to choose what risks our children will sustain. School districts do not have the right to assume this level of risk for our children without a waiver or informed consent, or to subject our most vulnerable population to forced chronic exposure to a recognized class 2B carcinogen.

The fact that Wi-Fi is in widespread use does NOT mean that it is safe. Wi-Fi is a relatively new, unregulated technology. We have learned from tobacco and asbestos that many of the worst effects of a product are not always immediately evident, but become known after long periods of exposure.

Can we really believe that exposing kids to microwave radiation all day in school is totally harmless?

Health Canada states that it has no long-term studies to provide evidence that microwave radiation exposure is safe for children because it is unethical to do such studies on children. The WHO has stated that they will not comment on the health effects of wireless technology until 2015.

Have you given consent for your child to be exposed to this health risk and be part of this biological experiment?

We are hopeful you take the common sense approach that is backed by thousands of unbiased, non-industry funded research studies that date back to the 1930’s; when microwaves were called microwaves, not “Wi-Fi”, or “energy.” This research substantiates the fundamental fact that each child has his own unique electrical signals that are not to be messed with by electrical experiments like microwave irradiation for 1200 hours/year.

Thank you for helping to ensure that our kid’s schools are not only allergen, lead, and asbestos free, but radiation free as well. If we as parents don’t demand that our kids’ health comes first, then who will?
