By Dr. Johansson
ORIGINAL ARTICLE
Exposure to electromagnetic fields may result in highly unwanted health effects. This has been demonstrated in a very large number of studies and includes cellular DNA-damage (which may lead to an initiation of cancer as well as mutations that carry down generations), disruptions and alterations of cellular functions like increases in intracellular stimulatory pathways and calcium handling, disruption of tissue structures like the blood-brain barrier (which may allow toxins to enter the brain), impact on vessel and immune functions, and loss of fertility.

If microwaves at low intensities (as shown in our study) can affect adult hearts then this radiation can certainly affect the hearts of children.
Anyone who experiences a rapid or irregular heart rate that comes on suddenly with mild or no physical exertion when they are exposed to wireless technology should heed the warning, minimize their exposure as quickly as possible and visit a cardiologist.

JUST SAY NO TO BIG BROTHER’S SMART METERS
Refuse Smart Meters

ORIGINAL ARTICLE

Many Americans have not yet heard of the "SmartMeters" that are being installed at a rapid pace across the states of California, Texas, and other states across our nation. Many Americans are totally unaware that someone has already installed a meter or will soon be showing up at their home, and, without knocking, or asking permission, will remove their old analog meter and replace it with a new “SmartMeter."

Why the rapid pace and secrecy in installing the meters? Is it because the utility companies know that the majority of Americans would never allow for such a thing if they really knew more about these new meters, their HARMFUL HEALTH EFFECTS, their inaccurate and often inflated billing, and the “big brother” control they will have over our use of energy and our own appliances in our own homes.

When all is in place, the smartmeter will not only keep track of how much electricity you are using, but it will be able to control, regulate, and ration your use of that electricity. If "big brother" decides that you are using too much heat in the winter time, or too much air conditioning in the summer time, or using too much hot water in your showers or washing machine (even if you are willing to pay for that extra usage), that use of power will be automatically turned down. A future goal is to have - all appliances replaced with those containing RF so that the smartmeter can speak to your appliances and turn them off in peak hours - for even more regulations and controls.

One of the propaganda ads about the SmartMeter was that this will be a way to save energy and lower costs, but many who already have the meter are finding out that is not the case. A man called to find out why his rates had gone up and was told that now that the meter could read exactly what time of the day that he was washing his clothes or using his air conditioner, PG&E could determine if that was “peak time” or not, and since it was “peak time” then he would have to pay “peak premium rates.” If he wanted to save money then he could wash his clothes in the middle of the night or use his other appliances at that time, or his air conditioner then (when he really didn’t need it anymore because the temperature is cooler).

DIGA NO A LOS SMART METERS DE GRAN HERMANO

Muchos estadounidenses todavía no han oído hablar de los "SmartMeters" que se están instalando a un ritmo rápido en todos los estados de California, Texas y otros estados a través de nuestra nación. Muchos estadounidenses son totalmente conscientes de que alguien ya ha instalado un medidor o lo estarán pronto a aparecer en su casa, y, sin llamar, o pedir permiso, se eliminará de su medidor análogo viejo y reemplazarlo con un nuevo "SmartMeter".

¿Por qué la rapidez y el secreto en la instalación de los medidores? ¿Es porque las empresas de servicios públicos saben que la mayoría de los estadounidenses nunca permitiría tal cosa si realmente sabía más acerca de estos nuevos medidores, sus efectos nocivos para la salud, su facturación incorrecta y se infla a menudo, y el "hermano mayor" de control que se tenemos sobre nuestro uso de la energía y nuestros propios electrodomésticos en nuestra propia hogares.

Cuando todo esté en su lugar, el SmartMeter no sólo no perderá de vista la cantidad de electricidad que está utilizando, pero será capaz de controlar, regular, y ración para el uso de esa electricidad. Si "Gran Hermano" decide que usted está utilizando un exceso de calor en el invierno, o el aire acondicionado demasiado en el tiempo de verano, o el uso de agua caliente demasiado en sus duchas o la lavadora (incluso si usted está dispuesto a pagar por ello el uso adicional), que el uso del poder será automáticamente rechazada. Un objetivo a futuro es tener - en 2012 - todos los electrodomésticos sustituidos por los de radiofrecuencia que contiene de manera que el SmartMeter puede hablar con sus aparatos y apagarlos en las horas punta - de las regulaciones aún más y los controles.

Uno de los anuncios de propaganda sobre el SmartMeter es que esta será una forma de ahorrar energía y reducir los costos, pero muchos de los que ya tienen el medidor se están dando cuenta que no es el caso. Un hombre llamado para averiguar por qué sus tasas habían subido y se le dijo que ahora que el medidor puede leer exactamente a qué hora del día que estaba lavando su ropa o el uso de su aparato de aire acondicionado, PG&E podría determinar si esa era "hora pico" o no, y ya que era "hora punta", entonces él tendría que pagar "tasas máximas de primera calidad." Si quería ahorrar dinero entonces podría lavar su ropa en el medio de la noche o usar sus aparatos de otros en ese momento, o de su aparato de aire acondicionado a continuación (cuando realmente no lo necesita más, porque la temperatura es más fría).

Excellent points made to the PUC in Austin, TX by Stephanie McCarter, M.D.
(sample of comments)


A wealth of peer-reviewed scientific literature shows that exposure levels well below the current US FCC radiofrequency guidelines can cause negative biological effects including changes to cell communication, cell metabolism, blood brain barrier disruption and DNA damage, links to infertility, and increased cancers, particularly leukemia and brain tumors. What I see currently in my practice reflects this science, and I am very concerned about the proposed use of wireless smart meters.

On January 19, 2012 the Board of the Academy of Environmental Medicine called for a resolution to halt wireless smart meters installation based on their assessment of the current medical literature. These physician specialists urge precaution as the literature raises concern regarding radiofrequency (3 KHz - 300 GHz) or extremely low frequency ( ELF 0- 300 Hz) exposures. Current FCC guidelines for RF safety that have been used to justify installation of smart meters only look at thermal tissue damage and are based on science published prior to 1986. Modern studies show metabolic and genomic damage from RF and ELF exposures well below the level of intensity which heats tissues. These effects at lower energy densities accumulate over time, which is an important consideration given the chronic nature of exposure from smart meters.

Solid evidence from a review of FCC Grants of Authorization shows that many thousands (perhaps millions) of meters are in clear violation of one or more of the limitations noted on each FCC Grant of Authorization. The Assessment of Radiofrequency Microwave Radiation emissions from Smart Meters (by Sage Associates in Jan. 2011) shows many cases where RF levels are many times higher than those reported to cause adverse health effects . I have electronically filed this report already for your review.

Comparison of RF exposure from cell phones to smart meters is misleading. The FCC would have required smart meters to be tested for SAR ( specific absorption rate) compliance if the smart meters were to be held to the head and not tested for power density. Power density and SAR compliance are not the same and to compare them is wrong. Smart meters, like cell towers create whole body exposure rather than localized exposure. Cell phone use is voluntary and sporadic. Smart meter exposure is involuntary and "all over the map". ( see tables in report filed electronically -Assessment ofRadiofrequency Microwave Radiation emissions by Smart Meters by Sage Associates Jan. 2011).

The difference between a cell phone and a smart meter environment is that while the cell phone is used only intermittently a smart meter environment is continuous. There is also strong evidence that leukemia rates are increased among people living near to powerful AM radio transmission towers. Because WiFi, radio transmission towers and smart meters all generate similar RF radiation, my conclusion is that if the whole body is exposed, leukemia is the major cancer of concern, while if only the head is exposed as in using a cell phone, one sees increased risk of local cancers, such as brain cancer. There are a variety of other health effects reported as a result of exposure to RF radiation, but in my judgment the increased risk of cancer is both the best documented and the disease of greatest concern.

The benefit of the smart meters is entirely to the utilities, and is economic in nature.

The evidence for adverse effects of radiofrequency radiation is currently strong and grows stronger with each new study.


Smart Meters: Correcting the Gross Misinformation
(sample of comments)

ORIGINAL ARTICLE

Public fears about wireless smart meters are well-founded. They are backed by various medical authorities such as those of the Santa Cruz County(California) Public Health Department. These authorities are worried about the growing number of citizens who say they have developed electrohypersensitivity (EHS), especially since for many of them, the symptoms developed after the installation of such meters (it takes some time for most people to link the two events).

Therefore, caution is warranted because the growing variety of RF/microwave emissions produced by many wireless devices such as smart meters have never been tested for their potential biological effects.

While the specific pathways to cancer are not fully understood, it is scientifically unacceptable to deny the weight of the evidence regarding the increase in cancer cases in humans that are exposed to high levels of RF/microwave radiation.

The statement that « there is no established mechanism by which a radio wave could induce an adverse effect on human tissue other than by heating » is incorrect, and reflects a lack of awareness and understanding of the scientific literature on the subject. In fact, more than a thousand studies done on low intensity, high frequency, non-ionizing radiation, going back at least fifty years, show that some biological mechanisms of effect do not involve heat. This radiation sends signals to living tissue that stimulate biochemical changes, which can generate various symptoms and may lead to diseases such as cancer.

Even though RF/microwaves don’t have the energy to directly break chemical bonds, unlike ionizing radiation such as X-rays, there is scientific evidence that this energy can cause DNA damage indirectly leading to cancer by a combination of biological effects. Recent publications have documented the generation of free radicals, increased permeability of the blood brain barrier allowing potentially toxic chemicals to enter the brain, induction of genes, as well as altered electrical and metabolic activity in human brains upon application of cell phone RF/microwaves similar to those produced by smart meters

High frequency EMFs such as the microwaves used in cell phones, smart meters, Wi-Fi and cordless ‘‘DECT’’ phones, appear to be the most damaging when used commonly. Most of their biological effects, including symptoms of electrohypersensitivity, can be seen in the damage done to cellular membranes by the loss of structurally-important calcium ions. Prolonged exposure to these high frequencies may eventually lead to cellular malfunction and death.

Wireless smart meters typically produce atypical, relatively potent and very short pulsed RF/microwaves whose biological effects have never been fully tested. They emit these millisecond-long RF bursts on average 9,600 times a day with a maximum of 190,000 daily transmissions and a peak level emission two and a half times higher than the stated safety signal, as the California utility Pacific Gas & Electric recognized before that State’s Public Utilities Commission. Thus people in proximity to a smart meter are at risk of significantly greater aggregate exposure than with a cell phone, not to mention the cumulative levels of RF/microwaves that people living near several meters are exposed to.

With smart meters, the entire body is exposed to the microwaves, which increases the risk of overexposure to many organs.

(Do you see the Underwriters Laboratories "UL" certification on your Smart Meter? WHY are they NOT "UL" certified?)

The Underwriters Laboratories question, WHY is this device not tested, listed, certified by UL?
Editor’s note: I was told that this is not required because the UL safety testing and approval process is applicable only to “consumer” products -The smart meter is considered a “utility product,” sold only to utility companies - consumers own and are responsible for the meter boxes, and consumers are legally responsible for any and all damage that results from fire, short-circuit, and power surges

ORIGINAL ARTICLE

“Smart” meters have not been tested by Underwriters Laboratories and do not carry the “UL” label, required for electronic devices. The EMR Policy Institute further notes that “components of Smart Meters are out of compliance with the National Electric Code (NEC) because they trip the Ground Fault Interrupters and Arc Fault Interrupters, creating a fire hazard. …Un-intentional re-radiation of RF/MW signal (with its higher energy) on the electrical wires may overload wires, particularly in poorly grounded or ungrounded homes, or homes with older wiring or faulty wiring.”

Wireless Smart Meters and Potential for Electrical Fires
Commentary by Cindy Sage, Sage Associates and James J. Biergiel, EMF Electrical Consultants

ORIGINAL ARTICLE

Typical gauge electrical wiring that provides electricity to buildings (60 Hz power) is not constructed or intended to carry high frequency harmonics that are increasingly present on normal electrical wiring. The exponential increase in use of appliances, variable speed motors, office and computer equipment and wireless technologies has greatly increased these harmonics in community electrical grids and the buildings they serve with electricity. Harmonics are higher frequencies than 60 Hz that carry more energy, and ride along on the electrical wiring in bursts. Radio frequency (RF) is an unintentional by-product on this electrical wiring.

It may be contributing to electrical fires where there is a weak spot (older wiring, undersized neutrals for the electrical load, poor grounding, use of aluminum conductors, etc.). The use of smart meters will place an entirely new and significantly increased burden on existing electrical wiring because of the very short, very high intensity wireless emissions (radio frequency bursts) that the meters produce to signal the utility about energy usage.

There have now been electrical fires reported where smart meters have been installed in several counties in California, in Alabama, and in other countries like New Zealand. Reports detail that the meters themselves can smoke, smolder and catch fire, they can explode, or they can simply create overcurrent conditions on the electrical circuits.

Electrical wiring it is not sized for the amount of energy that radio frequency and microwave radiation. These unintended signals that can come from new wireless sources of many kinds are particularly a worry for the new smart meters that produce very high intensity radio frequency energy in short bursts. Electrical fires are likely to be a potential problem.

Electrical wiring was never intended to carry this – what amounts to an RF pollutant – on the wiring. The higher the frequency, the greater the energy contained. It’s not the voltage, but it is the current that matters. RF harmonics on electrical systems can come from computers, printers, FAX machines, electronic ballasts and other sources like variable speed motors and appliances that distort the normal, smooth 60 hertz sine wave of electrical power and put bursts of higher energy RF onto the wiring.

Wireless smart meters don’t intentionally use the electrical system to send their RF signal back to the utility (to report energy usage, etc). But, when the wireless signal is produced in the meter… it boomerangs around on all the conductive components and can be coupled onto the wiring, water and gas lines, etc. where it can be carried to other parts of the residence or building.

It is an over-current condition on the wiring. It produces heat where the neutral cannot properly handle it. The location of the fire does NOT have to be in close proximity to the main electrical panel where the smart meter is installed.

A forensic team investigating any electrical fire should now be looking for connections to smart meters as a possible contributing factor to fires. Every electrical fire should be investigated for the presence of smart meter installation. Were smart meters installed anywhere in the main electrical panel for this building? For fires that are ‘unexplained’or termed electrical in nature, fire inspectors should check whether smart meters were installed within the last year or so at the main panel serving the buildings. They should question contractors and electricians who may have observed damage from the fire such as damage along a neutral, melted aluminum conductor or other evidence that would imply an overcurrent condition. They should also look for a scorched or burned smart meter, or burn or smoke damage to the area around the smart meter. Problems may be seen immediately, with a smart meter smoking or exploding. Or, it may be months before the right conditions prevail and a neutral circuit overloads and causes a fire. The fire may or may not be right at the smart meter. Some questions that should be asked include:

Were smart meters installed in the main electrical panel for this building? Problems may be seen immediately, with a smart meter smoking or exploding. Or, it may be months before the right conditions prevail and a neutral circuit overloads and causes a fire. The fire may or may not be at the smart meter. Any smart meter installed in a main panel might start an electrical fire in that building; it would not be necessary for the unit itself to have a smart meter. The RF emissions from any smart meter in the main panel might trigger an electrical fire at any location in the building served by this main panel because harmonics can and will travel anywhere on electrical wiring of that building.

Is there damage at the smart meter itself (burning, scorching, explosion)?

Was there fire damage, a source, or a suspicious area around the neutral where it connected to the main panel or at the breaker panel?

Was the damage around a lug at a connection on the neutral conductor in the attic at Xanadu? Was there any indication of heating or scorching or other thermal damage around the neutral in the area of the fire?

Was aluminum conductor present? Aluminum conductors that were installed in the ’70s are today recognized as more of a problem for heating than copper wire. Was the aluminum, if present, showing heat damage or melting?

Even before smart meters were being installed widely in California, people who know something about EMF and RF were expressing concerns that this kind of thing would likely happen (electrical fires due to overcurrent condition from RF signal). What is already postulated, and of concern, is that the rising use of equipment that put RF harmonics onto the electrical wiring of buildings may overload that wiring. Faulty wiring, faulty grounding or over-burdened electrical wiring may be unable to take the additional energy load.

Maine Public Utility Commission's smart meters investigation may ripple through nation
Online Sentinel
ORIGINAL ARTICLE

Hackers have three ways of harming utilities via smart meter attacks:
They can use a remote termination feature to disable electric power in a single or a number of homes. The apparent danger is that attackers can leverage this ability to turn off entire neighborhoods or regions to extract extortion payments from utilities. Hackers can potentially overheat components such as relays inside smart meters to literally start fires. Such a fire would quickly consume the meter itself and potentially even the entire home or business to which it's attached. They can break into a smart meter and tunnel into the utility's back-end system. Once there, hackers have access to all of the data, including consumer and system information.

A portion of a very important letter you should read BEFORE you say yes to a X-ray airport security scanner, written by: John Sedat, Ph.D, David Agard, Ph.D, Mark Shuman, M.D., Robert Stroud, Ph.D

LETTER OF CONCERN

We are writing to call your attention to serious concerns about the potential health risks of the recently adopted whole body backscatter X-ray airport security scanners. This is an urgent situation as these X-ray scanners are rapidly being implemented as a primary screening step for all air travel passengers.

Our overriding concern is the extent to which the safety of this scanning device has been adequately demonstrated. This can only be determined by a meeting of an impartial panel of experts that would include medical physicists and radiation biologists at which all of the available relevant data is reviewed.

An important consideration is that a large fraction of the population will be subject to the new X-ray scanners and be at potential risk, as discussed below. This raises a number of ‘red flags’. Can we have an urgent second independent evaluation?

The Red Flags

The physics of these X-rays is very telling: the X-rays are Compton-Scattering off outer molecule bonding electrons and thus inelastic (likely breaking bonds). Unlike other scanners, these new devices operate at relatively low beam energies (28keV). The majority of their energy is delivered to the skin and the underlying tissue. Thus, while the dose would be safe if it were distributed throughout the volume of the entire body, the dose to the skin may be dangerously high. The X-ray dose from these devices has often been compared in the media to the cosmic ray exposure inherent to airplane travel or that of a chest X-ray. However, this comparison is very misleading: both the air travel cosmic ray exposure and chest Xrays have much higher X-ray energies and the health consequences are appropriately understood in terms of the whole body volume dose. In contrast, these new airport scanners are largely depositing their energy into the skin and immediately adjacent tissue, and since this is such a small fraction of body weight/vol, possibly by one to two orders of magnitude, the real dose to the skin is now high. In addition, it appears that real independent safety data do not exist. A search, ultimately finding top FDA radiation physics staff, suggests that the relevant radiation quantity, the Flux [photons per unit area and time (because this is a scanning device)] has not been characterized. Instead an indirect test (Air Kerma) was made that emphasized the whole body exposure value, and thus it appears that the danger is low when compared to cosmic rays during airplane travel and a chest X-ray dose. In summary, if the key data (flux-integrated photons per unit values) were available, it would be straightforward to accurately model the dose being deposited in the skin and adjacent tissues using available computer codes, which would resolve the potential concerns over radiation damage. Our colleagues at UCSF, dermatologists and cancer experts, raise specific important concerns:

• A) The large population of older travelers, >65 years of age, is particularly at risk from the mutagenic effects of the X-rays based on the known biology of melanocyte aging.

• B) A fraction of the female population is especially sensitive to mutagenesisprovoking radiation leading to breast cancer. Notably, because these women, who have defects in DNA repair mechanisms, are particularly prone to cancer, X-ray mammograms are not performed on them. The dose to breast tissue beneath the skin represents a similar risk.

• C) Blood (white blood cells) perfusing the skin is also at risk.

• D) The population of immunocompromised individuals--HIV and cancer patients (see above) is likely to be at risk for cancer induction by the high skin dose.

• E) The risk of radiation emission to children and adolescents does not appear to have been fully evaluated.

• F) The policy towards pregnant women needs to be defined once the theoretical risks to the fetus are determined.

• G) Because of the proximity of the testicles to skin, this tissue is at risk for sperm mutagenesis.

• H) Have the effects of the radiation on the cornea and thymus been determined?

Moreover, there are a number of ‘red flags’ related to the hardware itself. Because this device can scan a human in a few seconds, the X-ray beam is very intense. Any glitch in power at any point in the hardware (or more importantly in software) that stops the device could cause an intense radiation dose to a single spot on the skin. Who will oversee problems with overall dose after repair or software problems?

The TSA is already complaining about resolution limitations; who will keep the manufacturers and/or TSA from just raising the dose, an easy way to improve signal-to-noise and get higher resolution? Lastly, given the recent incident (on December 25th), how do we know whether the manufacturer or TSA, seeking higher resolution, will scan the groin area more slowly leading to a much higher total dose?

After review of the available data we have already obtained, we suggest that additional critical information be obtained, with the goal to minimize the potential health risks of total body scanning. One can study the relevant X-ray dose effects with modern molecular tools. Once a small team of appropriate experts is assembled, an experimental plan can be designed and implemented with the objective of obtaining information relevant to our concerns expressed above, with attention paid to completing the information gathering and formulating recommendations in a timely fashion. We would like to put our current concerns into perspective.

As longstanding UCSF scientists and physicians, we have witnessed critical errors in decisions that have seriously affected the health of thousands of people in the United States. These unfortunate errors were made because of the failure to recognize potential adverse outcomes of decisions made at the federal level. Crises create a sense of urgency that frequently leads to hasty decisions where unintended consequences are not recognized. Examples include the failure of the CDC to recognize the risk of blood transfusions in the early stages of the AIDS epidemic, approval of drugs and devices by the FDA without sufficient review, and improper standards set by the EPA, to name a few. Similarly, there has not been sufficient review of the intermediate and long-term effects of radiation exposure associated with airport scanners.

There is good reason to believethat these scanners will increase the risk of cancer to children and other vulnerable populations. We are unanimous in believing that the potential health consequences need to be rigorously studied before these scanners are adopted. Modifications that reduce radiation exposure need to be explored as soon as possible. In summary we urge you to empower an impartial panel of experts to reevaluate the potential health issues we have raised before there are irrevocable long-term consequences to the health of our country. These negative effects may on balance far outweigh the potential benefit of increased detection of terrorists.



Dr. Blaylock: Body Scanners More Dangerous Than Feds Admit
Newsmaxhealth By Dr. Russell Blaylock

ORIGINAL ARTICLE

A group of scientists and professors from the University of California at San Francisco voiced their concern to Obama’s science and technology adviser John Holdren in a well-stated letter back in April.

The group included experts in radiation biology, biophysics, and imaging, who expressed “serious concerns” about the “dangerously high” dose of radiation to the skin.

We also know that certain groups of people are at a much higher risk than others. These include babies, small children, pregnant women, the elderly, people with impaired immunity (those with HIV infection, cancer patients, people with immune deficiency diseases, and people with abnormal DNA repair mechanism, just to name a few).

When the real effects of these scanners on health become known, Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano and the rest of the gang who insist the scanners are safe will be long gone.

Doctor Blaylock: Exploradores de Cuerpo más Peligrosos Que Feds Confiesan

Un grupo de científicos y profesores de la universidad de California en San Francisco expresó su preocupación al consejero de tecnología y ciencia John Holdren de Obama en una carta bien indicada atrás en abril.

El grupo incluyó a expertos en biología de radiación, biofísica, y representación, quién expresó “preocupaciones serias” por “la" dosis peligrosamente alta de la radiación a la piel.

También sabemos que los ciertos grupos de personas están en un riesgo mucho más alto que otros. Éstos incluyen a bebés, pequeños niños, mujeres embarazadas, los ancianos, la gente con la inmunidad perjudicada (aquellos con infección de HIV, pacientes de cáncer, la gente con males carenciales inmunes, y la gente con el mecanismo de reparación de DNA anormal, sólo para llamar unos cuantos).

Cuando los verdaderos efectos de estos exploradores en la salud se hacen conocidos, el Secretario de la Patria Security Janet Napolitano y el resto de la cuadrilla quiénes insisten los exploradores están seguros será mucho tiempo ido.
