Wi-Fi is an Important Threat to Human Health

by Martin L. Pall, PhD, Environmental Research Volume 164, July 2018, Pages 405-416 | Original paper here.

Repeated Wi-Fi studies show that Wi-Fi causes the following seven effects

  • Oxidative stress,
  • Sperm/testicular damage,
  • Neuropsychiatric effects, including EEG changes,
  • Apoptosis (premature cell death),
  • Cellular DNA damage,
  • Endocrine changes, and
  • Calcium overload

There are seven repeatedly found Wi-Fi effects which have also been shown to be caused by other similar Radio-frequency Electromagnetic Microwave Radiation (RF-EMR) exposures. Each of the seven should be considered, therefore, as established effects of Wi-Fi RF-EMR exposures. Each of these effects are also caused by exposures to other RF-EMR, with each such effect being documented in 10 to 16 reviews. Therefore, each of these seven RF-EMR effects are established effects of Wi-Fi and of other sources of RF-EMR.

Five properties of Non-thermal RF-EMR effects (occurring at RF-EMR levels many thousands of times lower than FCC RF-EMR exposure guidelines) are discussed:

  1. Pulsed, data-modulated, Radio-frequency Electromagnetic Microwave Radiation is, in most cases, more active than are non-pulsed RF-EMR;
  2. Artificial, manmade RF-EMR is polarized and such polarized RF-EMR is much more active than non-polarized RF-EMR;
  3. Dose response curves are non-linear and non-monotone;
  4. RF-EMR effects are often cumulative; and
  5. RF-EMR exposures may impact young people more than adults.

These general findings and data presented earlier on Wi-Fi effects were used to assess the Foster and Moulder (F&M) review of Wi-Fi. The F&M study claimed that there were seven important studies of Wi-Fi that each showed no effect. However, none of these were Wi-Fi studies, with each differing from genuine Wi-Fi in distinct ways.

  • F&M could, at most, conclude that there was no statistically significant evidence of an effect. The tiny numbers studied in each of these seven F&M-linked studies show that each of them lack statistical power to make any substantive conclusions.

  • It follows from these various findings that the placement of Wi-Fi into schools around the country may well be a high level threat to the health of our children as well being a threat to teachers and any very sensitive fetuses teachers may be carrying, as well.

  • In conclusion, there are seven repeatedly found Wi-Fi effects which have also been shown to be caused by other similar RF-EMR exposures. Each of the seven should be considered, therefore, as established effects of Wi-Fi.
