Study Disproves Health Risks of 5G Cellular Technology

BREMEN, Germany — A new study from Constructor University is challenging widespread myths about the health risks of 5G wireless technology. This research, published in the May issue of a scientific journal, aims to address misconceptions fueled by disinformation in modern society.
The rollout of 5G networks in 2019 sparked numerous conspiracy theories, including claims that the technology was linked to health hazards. Researchers sought to investigate these claims by conducting a blinded experiment on human skin cells.
The study examined two types of skin cells, fibroblasts and keratinocytes, which play vital roles in skin structure and function. During the experiment, these cells were exposed to 5G frequencies of 27 and 40.5 GHz, as well as higher electromagnetic fields, for durations of two and 48 hours.
According to lead researchers, this is the first study to utilize methods such as whole-genome RNA sequencing to analyze the genetic effects of 5G exposure. They found no significant changes in gene expression or methylation profiles, even at exposure levels ten times higher than recommended limits.
“At the frequencies tested here, the quantum energies are far too low to have photochemical or even ionizing effects,” the authors stated, emphasizing the importance of controlling temperature in such studies. Previous research that indicated potential harms did not adequately account for heat, leading to misleading results.
The researchers hope their findings will contribute to resolving the ongoing debate about the health impacts of 5G technology. However, given the persistent nature of misinformation, they acknowledge that conspiracy theories might not vanish anytime soon.
