Wills Physics Laboratory, University of Bristol, Tyndall Avenue, Bristol, BS8 1TL, U.K. "Corona ions emitted from high voltage power lines transfer their charge to aerosol particles, as shown in figure 1, following well known ion-aerosol attachment rates. When inhaled, these aerosols have a higher probability of depositing in the lung owing to their enhanced charge state. Corona ions therefore mediate increased exposure to air pollution. Space-charge comprising ions per se and charged aerosols can be carried by the wind, typically several hundred metres and in some cases several kilometres from powerlines (Fews et al., 1999, 2002). A risk analysis based on an average 30% increase in lung deposition of inhaled air pollution up to 400 metres from power lines downwind of the prevailing south-westerly wind, suggests an increased frequency of illnesses linked to air pollution, including childhood leukaemia, lung cancer, cardiovascular and respiratory illnesses."

This is 400% higher carcinogenic exposure than the 1m/W averaged over 1 cm2 of human flesh which has been in effect for lower frequencies since the FCC established its 1996 exposure guidelines! NOTE: The Covid pandemic has undoubtedly been a major setback worldwide for scientific inquiry into the devastating public health effects of Wi-transmitters, increasing in numbers daily. Lying in the far distant future is proper scientific assessment of the health and environmental impacts of potent new 5G beam-forming antennas, especially those which jackhammer human flesh with millimeter waves.
