Social media clips revive false claims by David Icke linking 5G and COVID-19
Wireless communications transfer data from one point to another using electromagnetic waves. When traveling through the air, these waves interact with particles and substances, such as oxygen, that can absorb part of their energy. This phenomenon causes the electromagnetic signal to lose strength with distance but doesn’t change the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere nor makes it unavailable to the body. Electromagnetic waves can also interact with biological tissues, but current exposure hasn’t been associated with health problems in people.
