Glastonbury attendees worried about 5G health issues, organizers say - all is fine

British telecom company EE will be trialing a 5G mobile network at this year's Glastonbury, which raised some health issues, and some fans were questioning whether they will even attend the festival now because of the trial, Plymouth Live reports. The trial would mark the first time the 5G technology has been used at a festival, with speeds that double what 4G is capable of. While many scientists believe 5G to be perfectly safe, there are some, including a University of California public health professor Jane Harvey , who have described 5G as “a massive experiment on the health of all species”, with Harvey saying “5G is a weapons grade frequency". EE responds that "the fundamental problem with the objections to 5G, is the simple misunderstanding about what 5G is and what we’re rolling out: we are not deploying mmWave frequencies as people like Jane Harvey assume", adding “there are strict rules on the amount of emissions from a mobile site and all 5G will be rolled out within those guidelines”, and that “there are no proven health concerns around 5G”, NME reports.
