DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY AND PUBLIC HEALTH

 


OUR VISION IS A WORLD WHERE TECHNOLOGY SERVES OUR NEEDS WITHOUT UNDERMINING OUR
PHYSICAL, PSYCHOSOCIAL OR ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH.


HEALTH EFFECTS OF DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY


EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: WIRELESS TECHNOLOGY AND PUBLIC HEALTH

Digital and wireless devices have provided many benefits, however, we are now
realizing that the rapid adoption of this novel technology has not been
accompanied by adequate regulation, monitoring or safety precautions.

Widespread use of digital media and near constant exposure to wireless devices
has caused increasing concern among scientists, health care professionals,
psychologists, educators and the public who are now considering this is not only
a public health issue but a looming public health crisis. (11,108) It appears
that we are at the same point of emerging science similar to early recognition
of health impacts associated with tobacco, asbestos, coal dust and lead. (119)
These concerns are amplified by industry proposals for a massive expansion of
wireless infrastructure and connectivity.

CHALLENGES FOR PHYSICIANS

It seems impossible to many physicians that non-ionizing radiation from wireless
devices would cause physical symptoms or biological harm. Patient reported
health concerns are often dismissed as coincidence (e.g. cell phone use and
brain cancer), or psychological (e.g. someone reporting electrosensitivity
symptoms near devices), or stress related (e.g. a couple that is infertile). 
There also seems to be endless controversy surrounding adverse health effects
from wireless devices. Physicians want to help patients and not give them
incorrect advice or fan their fears.  After all, one cannot see, hear or feel
electromagnetic radiation. People must be “a bit off” to think effects could be
caused by electronic gadgets we have used for years, right? Well, as it turns
out, there is an  abundance of research from credible, unbiased sources which
indicates clear harm from microwave radio frequency radiation we are exposed to.

PSYCHOSOCIAL ISSUES AND DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY USE

Emotional well-being and positive human interaction are crucial for healthy
individuals, healthy families, and a healthy society. Researchers are finding
that the overuse of interactive devices such as computers, cell phones, video
games, and other mobile electronic devices can have a direct effect on our
well-being and mental health. (5,19) With excess technology use, mental health
experts are reporting psychological and physiological effects on the central
nervous system, especially in children, leading to impairment of physical and
mental functioning. Psychiatrists and psychologists are seeing a disquieting
rise in tech addiction, cyberbullying, depression, insomnia, loss of empathy.
and impaired social-emotional learning in their young patients. (1,3,10) )
 Internet game overuse has been found to have psychological and neural effects
similar to other types of impulse control disorders and addictions which are
both substance

CALIFORNIA TELECOM BILLS CRUSHING LOCAL GOVERNMENT CONTROL

on May 12, 2021November 14, 2021by cindyleerussell

In the biggest telecom power grab so far to remove local authority in zoning for
broadband expansion, California legislators have authored a stack of telecom
bills, many of which are poised to benefit industry while overlooking health,
safety and environmental…

MYSTERY SOLVED: 2020 NAS REPORT LINKS DIPLOMATS NEUROLOGIC SYMPTOMS TO DIRECTED
MICROWAVE RADIATION SIMILAR TO ELECTROMAGNETIC ILLNESS

on April 6, 2021November 13, 2021by cindyleerussell

American scientists have been struggling to unravel the cause of a “mystery
illness” for years, after reports of incapacitating neurologic symptoms were
experienced in American and Canadian government officials stationed in Cuba in
2016 (AKA-The Havana Syndrome), and American diplomats…
