RE: Sent To Mental Hospital For Raising Concerns About 5G Tech With Her Doctor!

in #news6 years ago

I feel I should step in here as a scientist. All mobile network radiation is in the radio frequencies, which have no effect on the human body. Radio waves are constantly coming from space and do absolutely nothing to the people on the ground (this is why you hear static when you turn a radio to an unused frequency). In fact, if you are afraid of the radiation, Wifi is probably your biggest enemy, because that is also radio/microwave frequency, but much closer to you.

Now for the researcher in me: 99% of the research in this field is inconclusive, meaning they don't see any noticeable effect of radio frequencies on humans. Research has been done on people who claim they are sensitive to this stuff, but when they're put into a room with a transmitter, they can't tell by their symptoms whether it is on or off. This leads the researchers to believe that any symptoms they have (while real) are purely products of their fear. You don't need to be sent to a hospital for this; you just need counseling, most likely.

Sort:  

Greetings, well there are a fair few scientists who disagree with that position. A great deal of the research into this area is 'classified' due to the intense interest in energy weapons.

These are a couple of relevant posts on the topic:

Also, I suggest not being so trigger happy with the downvote button until you know how that works on Steem. You can't effect those with a higher reputation than you, but they can effectively remove your own earnings if your reputation is lower. I don't do that generally, but some people will happily auto vote your account into oblivion if you trigger them.
The idea with downvoting, generally, is that you don't use it just because you don't like something.

Oh, sorry about that. As you might tell, I'm new to this platform. If you wouldn't mind explaining what the votes are for, that would help me.

Sure - upvotes and 'downvotes' (reporting a post) affect the post reward payout at the end of the first 7 days following the post being published. The more 'Steem Power' you hold in your wallet, the more of an effect your up or downvote will have. Someone who holds a million Steem in their Steem Power 'box' will be able to upvote posts/comments by a significant amount - probably valued at hundreds of US dollars per vote, whereas a million votes from users who have virtually no Steem Power will result in very little effect in terms of increasing or decreasing the payout.

Upvotes increase the payout and downvotes decrease the payout.
