Researchers from India conducted a survey of mobile phone use and symptoms in a town called Kottakuppam. Their results, published in January, show that users experienced a range of uncomfortable symptoms, including headaches, earaches, tinnitus, sore fingers and restlessness, fatigue, eye problems, sleep problems and hypertension.

They're supposed to improve fitness and health, but here's a case where a wearable fitness device actually worsened the wearer's health. In 2014 a lady from Queensland bought a fitness armband with wireless function, designed to track the number of steps she took each day, and wore it continually, only taking it off once a week to charge it. Soon after, she developed serious problems.

An Australian mother has succeeded in preventing the installation of WiFi in the school attended by her child, who had developed reactions to EMR, especially WiFi and Bluetooth. When her child’s school considered the installation of WiFi, she submitted a comment to the Department of Education’s website reporting her child’s sensitivity, requesting assistance to find a high school without WiFi exposure and raising issues of disability and discrimination.

There is both enough evidence to say that microwave radiation causes a range of symptoms in humans and a mechanism to explain how this happens. This is the conclusion of an important new paper, published in August, by Professor Martin Pall from Washington State University. Professor Pall argues that microwave radiation activates voltage-gated calcium channels in the cell membrane that allow the passage of calcium.

Electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS) is real, can be demonstrated to be real and must be recognised by international authorities. These are some of the conclusions of the 5th Paris Appeal Congress, held on 18 May in Brussels. The Congress brought together some of the big names in Bioelectromagnetics research and looked at the latest research on the condition.

A US education authority has agreed to accommodate a teacher with electro- magnetic hypersensitivity (EHS). Anura Lawson, a secondary teacher at Johnnie Cochran Middle School, appealed to the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) to be able to teach in a WiFi- free classroom. On 28 May Ms Lawson told a hearing of the LAUSD that, after the WiFi was turned on at school, she collapsed and was rushed to hospital for surgery and her students suffered from nose and ear and ear bleeds.

Could myelin damage account for the symptoms that many people experience when exposed to wireless radiation? This is a possibility that should be taken seriously, say Dr Mary Redmayne and Prof Olle Johansson, writing in the September issue of the Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health. Myelin is a protective layer of fatty membrane that coats the nerves of the central and peripheral nervous systems (CNS and PNS).

In what could hardly be considered a master stroke of public relations, Australian authorities have both reneged on their undertakings to the Australian community and alienated the EHS population of the country. On the evening of Tuesday 11th November, Australia’s research consortium, the Australian Centre for Electromagnetic Bioeffects Research (ACEBR) and the Illawarra Health and Medical Research Institute hosted a public forum at Wollongong University on the topic of electromagnetic

A considerable lowering of guidelines and exposure to wireless microwave radiation, to a biologically-based precautionary level, with a peak-level maximum of 0.6 V/m as recommended by the BioInitiative report. Information and official warnings for the general public, regarding the health risks from wireless microwave radiation – with emphasis on increased risks for pregnant women and children.

World renowned experts present the latest scientific evidence of electromagnetic hypersensitivity in Dallas. In June specialists from around the globe gathered in Dallas for a four-day conference on electromagnetic hypersensitivity that presented the latest medical and scientific research on this little-understood condition. Electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS) is an extreme reaction to some electromagnetic frequencies,

The European Parliament has called for stricter standards to protect public health from mobile communications. The European Parliament has acknowledged the risks of electromagnetic radiation (EMR) from communications technology and called for stricter safety limits. In its mid-term review of the European Environment and Health Action Plan 2004-2010, members of Parliament- voted 522 to 16 to endorse a set of precautionary recommendations on 4 September.

International scientists endorse a precautionary approach to EMR exposure A group of international scientists has signed a document endorsing a precautionary approach to EMR exposure. Known as the Venice Resolution, the document was initiated on 6 June by the International Commission for Electromagnetic Safety, following the 6th ICEMS Workshop, held last December.
