The very Real Dangers of School Wi-Fi to yor Children.

Since the proliferation of Wi-Fi in 2006, I have developed a severe form of real physical electro-sensitivity diagnosed by the NHS. However, the NHS does not fund treatment for this condition. You can see a photograph of the inflammatory effects of electro-sensitivity upon me in my profile.

Leading scientific experts in electro-sensitivity such as Dr Barrie Trower, Prof Olle Johansson and Dr Andrew Goldsworthy have warned the public of the health hazards to the population, in particular of the hazards to children, posed by wireless and microwave radiation.

Wireless radiation and microwaves are not only identified as a class 2b carcinogen but these forms of radiation are linked to numerous diseases. Research has found that foetuses exposed to radiation from mobile phones in the womb are born with less brain cells than foetuses who are not exposed to this radiation.

In addition to this, both Dr Trower and Prof Johansson have warned that these forms of radiation are linked to infertility and that children exposed to it now will sustain injuries to their ovaries and testicles which will raise the incident of birth deformities in their children and their children's children.

The International Commission for Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection has stated that certain groups of the population such as the elderly, those with chronic health conditions and children may well be sensitive to wireless and microwave radiation. Therefore, it is the legal responsibility of individuals such as head teachers to set wireless radiation in schools at a level below what is accepted as safe. How many head teachers have done this?

In addition to this, the ICNIRP states that if any child in a school sustains an injury, such as damage to her ovaries, from wireless radiation then it is the head teacher who is culpable in law for this and not the communication industry. This is because the ICNIRP warned of the dangers of wireless and microwave radiation to children.

This is also why insurance companies are now refusing to insure clients in the event of prosecution for injuries caused by wireless and microwave radiation. Still skeptical? Then ask Apple and facebook why they have offered to freeze the eggs of their female employees? Are they anticipating lawsuits?

Still skeptical?

yep Grin

Twistmeandturnme · 10/02/2017 15:07

Sorry, my brain started to shut down about 1/4 way into that until I got to the bit about mobile phones and lesbian cells. Then I shrugged, read it properly and decided it's total and utter nonsense.

NHS says all in the mind

Are you the same poster who posts this message regularly or is there more than one of you? Shock

tinymeteor · 10/02/2017 15:41

fewer brain cells

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 10/02/2017 15:45

I don't think you are being fair to the OP. Fair enough to gently point out there is no such thing, but mocking and ridiculing her about a conditional she believes she has is not on IMO.

It may be all in her head, but surely that itself deserves some sympathy?

PleasantPhesant · 10/02/2017 15:51

We're not mocking the op for the condition she thinks she has-but that she says she's been diagnosed by the NHS.

Feeling unwell-for whatever reason is shit.

tinymeteor · 10/02/2017 17:08

The OP didn't post here for support, they posted to warn parents of "dangers to your children" and provided no evidence to back this up. Scaremongering is irresponsible and deserves ridicule.

FriedSheep · 10/02/2017 18:24

Purple Daisies, do you think all the claims in the post are unscientifically proven or some of them? I ask this because real physical electro-sensitivity is recognised by the European Parliament after it reviewed scientific research upon the condition and I was diagnosed with real physical electro-sensitivity in an NHS hospital by an immunologist. Maybe you'd be interested in reading the results of the experiments conducted by Prof Johansson in Sweden on the skin biopsies of elelctro-sensitives? Please see photo of me leg in my profile.

No, Pheasant, I used the severe and debilitating symptoms of real physical electro-sensitivity which has ruined my life as has the real physical multiple chemical sensitivity I was also diagnosed with by the NHS. That's the multiple chemical and/or which 40% of M.E. patients also develop which I also have. Feel free to carry on trolling the sick and disabled. The Tories love it.

PleasantPhesant · 10/02/2017 18:37

I am very sorry you have been diagnosed with M.E and I truly hope you're getting the right support you deserve and require. 💐

I am perfectly allowed to disbelieve your illness is because of wifi.
Especially as you are using it.

BarrackerBarma · 10/02/2017 18:37

To clarify: you have been diagnosed with "electro-sensitivity" by an NHS doctor in an NHS hospital and this diagnosis is part of your medical record?

Badders123 · 10/02/2017 18:37

I've got ME
I went to school in the 1970s
No fucking wifi then
Probably the plasticine eh?
Do you have ANY idea what such ridiculous claims do to the veracity of ME diagnoses!?

FriedSheep · 10/02/2017 18:37

Yes, Pheasant, I have been diagnosed by 2 hospitals with these conditions. Once by a leading expert in them at the Breakspear Hospital and again by an NHS immunologist at St. George's NHS hospital.

OP posts:
Creatureofthenight · 10/02/2017 18:38

Perhaps you could provide some links to the research, OP?

NarkyMcDinkyChops · 10/02/2017 18:44

The Breakspear "Hospital" is Quack Central. The recommend a regimen of homeopathy to neutralise both electro magnetism AND vaccines.

I think that tells you everything you need to know about the quality of the "science" available at the Breaskspear Hmm

LillyLollyLandy · 10/02/2017 18:46

Your profile is set to private so unfortunately we can't see your pictures.

NarkyMcDinkyChops · 10/02/2017 18:47

The Breakspear will also remove all your fillings to cure whatever they have diagnosed you with, and also use vitamins and again homeopathy to treat autism.

Hmm Hmm

Cathelpplease · 10/02/2017 18:51

this poor girl committed suicide because she believed she had this illness

Personally I would be seeking some kind of therapy or not sending my child to school if I truly believed it was making her ill. Anyway article says the WHO doesn't recognise it as an illness.

OP posts:
PickAChew · 10/02/2017 18:51

All on the NHS?Shock or am I misreading?

How do you conclusively test for so called electrochemical sensitivities, anyhow? I don't see how it would be possible without locking yourself in a faraday cage for a month to see if symptoms get better.

Bananalanacake · 10/02/2017 18:55

From the title I thought you meant the danger was children are more likely to be on their phones/tablets at school without parental supervision and therefore more likely to get talking to peadophiles disguised as kids online, how wrong I was.
