Last autumn, a kind of competitor to ICNIRP was created

ICNIRP – The International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection – sets limit values ​​for wireless communication within the EU. These limit values ​​only protect against acute heat damage. This means that ICNIRP's reference values ​​do not protect against the harmful effects of the kind of long-term exposure that is current from base stations and from routers. Nor against the harmful effects of long-term repeated use of mobile phones. ICNIRP's reference values ​​are based on an outdated approach to the risks of microwave radiation established by the US military industry in the 1950s: that the radiation would only cause harmful effects if it is so intense that it heats body tissue in a short time.

Many people contact us as well as the authorities and testify about severe health problems and symptoms. Measurements of the radiation in the homes generally show levels that are far below the levels that are permitted in Sweden. The symptoms they experience have been described for 50 years as an effect of exposure to microwave radiation. The symptom picture was named the microwave syndrome and includes difficulty sleeping, headaches, tinnitus, exhaustion, depression, anxiety, palpitations and chest tightness. Breathing problems have surfaced as an increasingly frequent symptom during the last year's massive increase in microwave radiation.

Although the witnessed symptoms are known and repeatedly demonstrated since 50 years ago, the authorities passively watch the exploding increase in radiation and reject the incoming testimonies, research results confirming health risks and warnings of hundreds of scientists about harmful health effects.

ICNIRP is a foundation that was built in the mid-1990s and quickly became the WHO's court provider of thought and guidelines around limits that give maximum leeway to the wireless industry.

ICNIRP then had good support from the mobile industry to work its way into the WHO, which in the 1990s lacked competence and capital. The man who created ICNIRP, Michael Repachioli, could help with that. International commissions and authorities are something that is created and built up based on the initiative of individuals.

A new international commission is following up and has delivered a scathing critique of the basis of ICNIRP's guidelines. The criticism goes deeper than anything we have seen so far.

Last autumn, a kind of competitor to ICNIRP was created. It is called The International Commission on the Biological Effects of Electromagnetic Fields, abbreviated ICBE-EMF, and consists of top-notch researchers in the field of health and radiation.
