The european commission on
5G and health
There have been sad developments for some of our members’ local markets over the past few weeks: "just fake news" has moved from social media gatherings to anti-network actions in several markets and featured attacks to 5G towers and telecom workers. International bodies and European institutions are stepping up to tackle this dangerous trend. The European Commission is clear on its messaging on 5G and health:
"The existing scientific evidence on electromagnetic field exposure confirms that 5G networks will not cause more electromagnetic emissions than it is allowed. This means that 5G will not have a negative effect on people’s health," states the official website of the European Commission on this matter.

how do Contact tracing apps work?
Digital solutions can protect and save human lives. The European Commission says that apps, like contact tracing apps, can assist us in gradually returning back to normal lives. They can trace chains of coronavirus infections, facilitate rapid prevention against further spread by using the phone's bluetooth signal to identify other devices close by. These apps will be anonymous - user and location are not identified. However, app usage will remain voluntary, user consent will be required.

Following scientific recommendations on the rollout of #5G networks as well as the @infoicnirp guidelines, the #EU puts EMF exposure limits for the general public up to 50 times lower than what evidence suggests as having any effect on health →ec.europa.eu/digital-single...
