wifi Dear friends and colleagues, I haven’t been involved with the campaign
for a few months as I have been recovering from an operation, however I am well
on the road to recovery and am fit and well once again. Thanks to the many
people who have sent emails wondering why I haven’t been in touch for a while. Please read the latest information and news
reports which includes important events ahead, I have included my letter to the
news papers regarding the Essex University EHS study. Feel free to forward this
news letter. Best wishes Eileen O’Connor Trustee EM Radiation Research Trust Latest news/information up dates: http://news.independent.co.uk/health/article2814749.ece The Independent on Sunday 29 July 2007 Electronic smog linked to respiratory disease, study
shows By 29 July 2007 Electrical fields from computers, televisions and
other everyday equipment can give people asthma, influenza and other
respiratory diseases, a startling new study suggests. The research, by scientists at Imperial College London,
provides academic backing for one of the more controversial claims of
campaigners against the thickening electro-smog from sources such as mobile
phones and their masts, Wi-Fi systems and household electrical devices. The scientists believe that there should now be
research into whether electromagnetic radiation from sources such as mobile
phone masts and Wi-Fi systems has the same effect. The study is bound to increase the row over the
effects of the electro-smog. It comes in the wake of the publication last week of
research which concluded that people who believe that the masts are making them
ill are deluding themselves. This research, by psychologists at MPs are to consider the health effects of the masts
and Wi-Fi systems in an adjournment debate called by the Liberal Democrats'
local government spokesman, Tom Brake, in October. Suspicion that electrical fields cause respiratory
illness dates back to the 1950s when it was found that placing asthmatics in
areas with low electrical fields got rid of their symptoms. As the amount of
electro-smog has multiplied many fold since then, campaigners have increasingly
insisted that it causes a wide range of ailments, from respiratory diseases to
difficulties in concentrating, from sleeplessness to cancer. The research by The scientists found that the electrical fields given
off by a wide variety of household items, including compu-ters, televisions,
cookers, lamps and even wiring, charge minuscule particles in the air such as
viruses, bacteria, allergens and highly toxic pollutants. Because they are so tiny less than 80 times the
thickness of a human hair they are constantly airborne and so are being
breathed in all the time. The electrical charge makes them stick to the tissue
of the lungs and respiratory tract, causing infection and increasing the impact
on the body. The higher the electrical field the greater the
danger, as the most charged particles hit the tissue with more speed. As they
crash land, they become deformed, which makes them stick more firmly. Electrostatic charges, such as those given off by clothing
and sheets made of synthetic materials, add to the problem. The research also shows that the electrical fields
greatly reduced concentrations of charged molecular oxygen, which is readily
absorbed by the body, enhances biological functions and can also kill harmful
microbes. Keith Jamieson, who led the research, is particularly
worried about the effects in hospitals, where already sick people are
surrounded by electrical equipment and often have sheets made of synthetic
materials. He adds, however, that, "there are a number of
easy actions which can be implemented in the home and workplace to help reduce
the toxic load on our bodies and the risk of illness and infection". He said that people should ensure that electrical
equipment particularly laptop computers is earthed, avoid synthetic
materials, and unplug equipment when it is not in use. Interesting

Mobile
phone masts 'do not damage health' The conclusion from Elaine Fox and the Essex study saddens me as I
realise that many people throughout the world will now live with a false sense
of security and will mistakenly believe that mobile phone masts are safe.
If only I had known about the dangers of living 100m from a mobile phone
mast, I suffered with headaches, sleep disturbances, vertigo and skin rashes for
years and visited my doctor on many occasions with these symptoms only to be
told that it could be stress or a virus, I had no idea that phone masts could
be harmful and I had not connected my symptoms to radiation from the mast.
After many years of long term exposure, I was eventually diagnosed with breast
cancer at the age of 38 and discovered that I was living in a cancer cluster, I
now realise that my symptoms are known as ES, I react to certain
frequencies/power levels from phone masts, mobile phones and DECT phones. I
realise that it is a complicated condition to diagnose as people can react to a
range of different frequencies/power levels, however, some EHS people have
become completely debilitated and are extremely sensitive and I believe the 12 people
that had to withdraw from the Essex study might fall into this group and they
should not be dismissed, its almost like running a drug trial and 20% have a
severe reaction from the poison of the drug and the conclusion of the study is
they don’t count as they couldn’t continue with the trial, its ridiculous and
thankfully truly independent scientists and the mast campaign groups have
highlighted the flaws in the Essex study. My heart goes out the EHS victims who bravely took part in this study as
I know some of them suffered badly; one severely sensitive electrosensitive
friend and fellow Trustee for the EM Radiation Research Trust, Brian Stein had
to withdraw as he suffered from internal bleeding for two weeks following the
first exposure and couldn’t continue, his results have also been ruled out of
the final conclusion, he has spoken out about this publicly, please read his
personal account of suffering and experience following the Essex study, see
information enclosed below. I refused to take part in the Government/Industry sponsored Essex study,
my husband was outraged and thought that the testing was barbaric; he said
“Imagine if you had a cancer cell left in your body and you are volunteering to
sit in front of radiation that could accelerate the growth, you might as well
put a gun to your head”. I realise that we are now all being exposed to microwave radiation in
our daily lives and we have not given the Government or Industry authority to
do this, most people don’t realise that the microwave radiation frequencies
have not undergone any pre-market testing and the industry is self regulated. It is offensive and wholly unacceptable to claim that this small study
proves that EHS is all in the mind. Many an Behavioural observat I understand that For further information on phone masts go to www.radiationresearch.org also read information with regards to the Essex
study from Mast Sanity http://www.mastsanity.org/ and
Mast Victims http://www.mastsanity.org/,
and http://www.tetrawatch.net/main/news.php these
websites include excellent reports from Dr George Carlo, Dr Grahame Blackwell and
Powerwatch UK, thank you to the mast campaign groups for providing this
important information. Kind Regards Eileen O’Connor "Last year I
signed up for the test at Essex
University and attended
the first of three sessions to prove this condition. I ignored
my cynicism because the questionnaire seemed to be only concerned with my
financial state and levels of stress. I ignored
the fact that the people were psychologists, not scientists. I ignored the fact
that they couldn’t tell me the level of strength of the mast. I ignored
the fact that they had not consulted anyone ES when devising the tests and I
went ahead with the first one hour session. ‘I have been made permanently
worse; I had to pull out of the remaining tests. Although double blind I knew
that the mast was on. How, I bled internally for two weeks. That is what
happens to me when I get too close to a mast for too long. Bleeding internally, can this be psychosomatic I ask myself. Perhaps my
gut has decided to join in on this misinformation. Maybe my gut is in league
with my brain in deluding me." ‘I used a mobile phone for 15 years. 14 years not a problem, no issues. ‘15th year. Severe pain
in my head and ear, only when I put the mobile to my head. Why is my pain,
psychosomatic? ‘Put the phone to my
head. Instant pain, take it away and pain goes away. Problem. What is
happening??? This can’t happen! ‘Although I cut down on
using my mobile I did not stop completely. Why? Good question. I was assured by
all it was only temporary and like a fool I believed the scientists, the
medics, the media. ‘Then, one day putting
the mobile to my head an explosion in my ear. So much pain I could not bear the
mobile to my head. This can’t happen! Thereafter, the weird experience I had
over the twelve months earlier using a mobile phone, I started to experience in
front of my computer, in front of my TV and in my car. ‘This developed over
time to an ordinary phone, video, washing machine, dish washer etc. Whatever
damage the mobile phones/microwaves, can do had been done to me. ‘When you become
hypersensitive to something, it is not confusing, it is not a case of I don’t
feel well, I wonder what it is, can it be my microwave!!! Its use a phone for 5
minutes – pain in ear and head. Don’t use the phone – no pain. Use the phone –
pain. Don’t use the phone – no pain. After you have done this experiment on
yourself a few hundred times, it becomes more than a coincidence. I have been
studying ES for 5 years. Every hour, of every day, of every month for 5 years.
Believe me it is not confusing. ‘Wishing to prove my
condition I signed up for the tests at Kings College and had to pull out when I
found what they wanted to do to me. I did suggest a less invasive way of
proving this but was ignored. Last year I signed up for the test at ‘I have been made
permanently worse; I had to pull out of the remaining tests. Although double
blind I knew that the mast was on. How, I bled internally for two weeks. That
is what happens to me when I get too close to a mast for too long. Bleeding
internally, can this be psychosomatic I ask myself. Perhaps my gut has decided
to join in on this misinformation. Maybe my gut is in league with my brain in
deluding me. I went to my doctor when I first bled. He referred me to a
Specialist. The Specialist was very chatting and friendly until I told him why
I was bleeding. I then became the enemy. A lunatic. I had a barium enema and a
colonoscopy. All clear. ‘When I asked therefore
why I could be bleeding (I was bleeding before and after the investigation) I
was told by the specialist in a very aggressive voice ‘there is no reason
why you should be bleeding’. He didn’t want to see my stool, didn’t want to
check the most obvious way of telling if I was being truthful or not. End of
Examination, Go Home! ‘That is what it is
like being ES. The tests have been devised so that the people who are best able
to prove this condition are precluded. People find it inconvenient to be more
thorough. Don’t ask the obvious questions, simply dismiss it and trust the
scientists investigating this, sponsored by the mobile phone industry. No
reason to be concerned. ‘In theory, this should
not happen. ‘If damaged by a drug,
I don’t think the drug industry saying we didn’t do any research into this drug
because in theory it should be safe, would be good enough. The mobile phone
industry gets away with it. They are not required to do any safety research
because the NRPB (HPA) are responsible for this and of course they are totally
independent and impartial like the newspaper industry. Who do not want to rock
the boat. ‘When I challenge
scientists, politicians, health industry, NRPB, Media, that this is not
difficult to prove I can prove it. They change the subject. I could go on for
hours but why bother. ‘Sadly, you and your
family have to become affected to rock the boat. I hope you have the good grace
to apologise in a few years time when your collective incompetence results in
millions of people being affected because that is what will happen. Correction,
this is what is happening while you don’t use your common sense or investigate
this seriously. ‘If the research is
correct, that it causes geno-toxin effects, single and double stranded DNA
breaks, damage to chromosomes and reductions in melatonin, how will this be
detected in humans when doctors, specialists, scientists etc refuse to examine
us seriously. The best any ES person has had is a two minute examination and
the assurances we are perfectly OK. ‘If these things are
happening, what symptoms are we allowed to have? Please advise me. What
symptoms am I allowed to have if I am suffering from the above!!! ‘Meanwhile, incidents
of brain tumours, mouth tumours, ear tumours, eye tumours, once very rare, are
all suddenly appearing and increasing. Probably
psychosomatic. ‘Wake
up! Brian Stein
