Wi-Fried - Controversy surrounds this episode of 'Catalyst' that was broadcast on Australia's ABC on the 16th of February 2016, which claimed that the radiofrequency (RF) emissions from Wi-Fi was causing health effects ranging from DNA damage to cancer.
The ABC pulled the episode from its website and iView platforms and apologised to viewers, having suspended reporter Dr Maryanne Demasi from on-air assignments
Could Wi-Fi-enabled devices be harmful to our health? You cannot see it or hear it but Wi-Fi blankets our homes, our schools and our cities. Australia's safety agency says there's no evidence of harm, but that's not the same as saying its safe. A growing number of scientists are concerned that the widespread use of Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi-enabled devices could be slowly making us sick. In this Catalyst investigation, Dr Maryanne Demasi explores whether our wireless devices could be putting our health at risk.
Guests supporting the theory of the dangers included:
Dr Devra Davis (Davis works on disease prevention and environmental health factors. She served as the President Clinton appointee to the Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board from 1994 to 1999, having won bipartisan Senate confirmation. She was Founding Director of the Center for Environmental Oncology, the first of its kind in the world, and presently acts as President of Environmental Health Trust, a non-profit organization focusing on drawing attention to man-made health threats)
and
Mr Frank Clegg (a safe technology advocate and former president of Microsoft in Canada)
"My industry is on a campaign to bury the science and to confuse the message," Clegg claims, likening this to the way cigarette companies once operated.
"I believe my industry is using that same model, in obfuscating the science, hiring scientists to cast doubt on the science, confusing government, and causing government to be constipated and not passing the legislation they need to pass."
The program ‘Wi-fried’, has made sure that many people in our communities are now again talking about the potential dangers of wireless radiation (EMF) and how it could affect health. Are we indeed being Wi-Fried?
This short documentary showed us the following things:
- US cancer epidemiologist Dr. Devra Davis stated that the wireless revolution has gone from the equivalent of horse and buggy to a jet, in about ten years.
- Dr. Daruisz Lezsczynski, an international recognized expert in radiation safety and an adviser to the World Health Organisation said that most people are not aware that they breach the mobile phone safety standards by holding it close to the body.
- For a heavy user, someone who uses his phone for at least 30 minutes a day for ten years, there is an association with brain tumors – (IARC 31 May 2011)
- Dr. Ken Karipidis from ARPANSA, Australia’s national radiation safety agency, is of the belief that there is no established fact that low magnetic radiation can cause any health effects. The critical observer does notice that he doesn’t say that wireless devices are safe and that ARPANSA can only give advise based on their assessment of the evidence. Making the conscious decision to discount or ignore available research for reasons they feel are justifiable.
- The Inter Phone Study, was co-funded by the industry but took five years to be released because of the intense politics that took place between members of the team, some of them who were heavily sponsored by the Industry and others who were more independent. Appendix 2 showed a clear correlation.
- The Bio-Initiative Report from 2012 was brought up and is written by 29 international independent scientists from around the world about the dangers of low magnetic radiation.
- Dr. Devra Davis ended with saying : “Do we really want to see proof that we’ve got millions of people with cancer like we did with tobacco and asbestos? Is there any question that we should have acted sooner? We would make a huge mistake if we continue to take the repeated assurances, that everything is alright”.
All discuss the evidence that low-level RF, such as that from Wi-Fi, mobile phones or base stations, impairs human health.
Question everything, believe nothing and stay curious...
