No, 5G Still Won't Give You Cancer

And the medical establishment now chimes in to back up the New York Slimes...

The Week That Wasn't: 5G Scare, Brain Hacks, Artificial Kidney

The fifth and latest generation of wireless mobile technology is coming. 5G carriers around the country are beginning to roll out faster, more efficient, and more expansive coverage. But not everyone's thrilled about it.

Since the advent of wireless technology, fears that high-frequency electromagnetic radiation could be dangerous to humans have been on the rise, despite the lack of evidence to back them up. "There have been thousands of studies on bioeffects of cell-band frequencies, and health agencies have not concluded that any hazard exists below current exposure limits," Kenneth Foster, PhD, professor of bioengineering at the University of Pennsylvania, wrote to Medscape in an email.

Alarmingly, some physicians have also taken up the rallying cry against 5G. A petition addressed to the United Nations and signed by over 100,000 scientists worldwide, including doctors, urgently calls for "a halt to the deployment of the 5G (fifth generation) wireless network." Another group of 250 scientists and doctors submitted a petition to the World Health Organization decrying the dangers of non-ionizing radiation.

Despite these dissenters, there is a firm consensus in the larger scientific community. We decided not to cover these concerns about the ongoing rollout of 5G. Several other outlets did, including the New York Times and the BBC, reassuring their readers that they had nothing to worry about. So if your patients voice any concerns, it might be a good idea to direct them there.

Helping doctors fight cancer with 5G.

Technology can help make a serious disease much less frightening.

In the future, doctors will have the ability to convert 2-Dimensional patient CT Scans and MRIs into 3-Dimensional holographic renderings in order to precisely dissect around and remove cancer.

Verizon 5G Ultra Wideband will help make it possible.

Doctors will have the ability to fight cancer like never before. Dr. Christopher Morley is a renowned radiologist and co-founder of Medivis, an augmented reality medical company using holographic visualization to transform medical and surgical practices. Along with neurosurgeon Dr. Osamah Choudry, these two doctors saw an opportunity to fundamentally change the way abnormalities are detected.

Traditionally, during surgical procedures doctors view a 2-D image and turn back to the operating table with their interpretation of how to proceed. With 3-D technology developed by Medivis, a holographic image provides greater precision for the doctor, while providing greater safety for the patient.

This is personal.

Dr. Morley understands the “variation of normal” all too well. His mother, Jean Morley, had undergone a series of tests with a number of doctors due to discomfort she continued to endure in her abdominal area. With his acute attention to detail, her son reviewed the scans himself, admittedly knowing that when it’s your own family, you perform an even closer inspection.

Sadly, Dr. Morley’s mother was diagnosed with Stage 4 terminal gastric cancer. She is strong and intends to fight the good fight. Listen to Dr. Morley’s podcast to gain an understanding of how doctors will have the ability to fight cancer like never before, with the help of Verizon’s 5G Ultra Wideband.
