My daughter has just started at a daycare that we are happy with. Unfortunately, a mobile tower has been erected 8 meters/1 minutes walk from the daycare. I have read that there are divided opinions about the safety. My concern is that it is so close, and the children spend 7-8 hours a day at the daycare. Would you change daycare?

WHO The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified radiofrequency electromagnetic fields as possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B).

They have also given Aloe Vera and Pickled Vegetables the exact same classification, but both are used by millions every day. Also Petrol, but I bet you dont walk everywhere.

Toast is carcinogenic. Do you eat toast?

So is oxygen 🤣

@MiddleagedBeachbum Which EMF blockers do you use please? Trying to find some to cover bases but not sure if they even work or which to get. thanks.

They are all nonsense. Buy whichever sort you like, they are all just tchotchkes designed to part the gullible from their money.

well, I’ve worked in telecoms for 35 years, most of that time in technical sites and for many many years now on or near mast sites. I have dozens of colleagues who do my role too (hundreds of us across the country).

If your concern is real we would, statistically, be dropping like flies/dead/ill/reporting serious illnesses even to a small percentage of us. We are not. We have access to tons of health and safety information and training and ironically the greater risk is being assaulted by people who have incorrectly perceived extreme ideas about 5g transmission!

They don’t work so don’t waste your money.
