Multiple studies showing elevated Cancer, MND, Heart Attack, Miscarriage and
Suicide support a causal relationship between terminal and fatal human health
effects and the disease agent under consideration. Multiple significant elevation
and consistent elevation is strong evidence of a causal relationship. Dose-response
evidence generally puts the question of causation well beyond reasonable doubt.
This is based on the approach recommended by one of the world's most eminent
environmental epidemiologists, Sir Austin Bradford Hill, Hill (1965).
Biophysics Principle: EMR Spectrum Principle:
The EMR Spectrum Principle is that the higher the carrier frequency, then the
higher the biological and health effects will be. It is very well established that the
higher the carrier frequency is, and the shorter the wavelength is, and the higher
the water content is, then the faster the RF/MW signal gets absorbed and the
higher the induced electric field, the conductivity and the induced electric current is.
It is observed that both biological effects and epidemiological effects appear to be
the same or very similar from ELF exposure and from much lower RF/MW intensity
exposures, including calcium ion efflux, melatonin reduction, DNA strand breakage,
chromosome aberrations, leukaemia, brain cancer, breast cancer, miscarriage and
neurological effects.
The dielectric constant is approximately the AC equivalent of the DC Resistance.
As the dielectric constant decreases the conductivity increases. The dielectric
properties of biological tissue depend on the water content because of the
interaction of the RF/MW signal with the tissues. Two types of effects control the
dielectric constant frequency dependence. One is the oscillation of the free charges
or ions and the other the rotation of the molecules at the frequency of the applied
electromagnetic signal, Johnson and Guy (1972). This results in a progressive
reduction in the dielectric constant with rising frequency of the electromagnetic
signal, Figure 6.
