Abstract

Overview

The study investigates an overlooked environmental factor in the COVID-19 pandemic—ambient radiofrequency radiation (WCR) from wireless communication systems. The timing and location suggest an initial correlation with newly established 5G networks.

Findings

  • WCR can lead to morphologic changes in erythrocytes causing hypercoagulation.
  • It may impair microcirculation and reduce hemoglobin levels, exacerbating hypoxia.
  • Exposure potentially amplifies immune system dysfunction, increases oxidative stress, and leads to vascular and organ damage.
  • Higher intracellular Ca2+ due to WCR may facilitate viral entry, replication, and promote inflammatory responses.
  • Contributes to heart arrhythmias and worsens cardiac disorders.

Conclusion

WCR, including that from 5G deployments, is postulated to exacerbate COVID-19 by impairing immune response and increasing virulence. A clear overlap in pathobiology between COVID-19 and WCR exposures suggests an urgent need for further research and minimization of public exposure to WCR.
