'Anti-5G' jewelry and accessories are radioactive, Dutch authorities warn
CTV
Dutch authorities are warning the public that several products claiming to provide 'protection' from 5G networks are radioactive.
The organization for nuclear safety and radiation protection in the Netherlands issued a warning about 10 products they found to be giving off harmful ionizing radiation.
The warning urges consumers to stop wearing the items and to safely “put them away” as they could cause harm if they are worn long-term.
“The 10 consumer products examined contain radioactive substances…Ionizing radiation can damage tissue and DNA,” the warning says. “The amount of radiation measured on the examined products is low, however in the case of prolonged and continuous wear of these examined products (a whole year, 24 hours a day), the strict limit value in the Netherlands for exposure of the skin to radiation can be exceeded.”
The belief in 5G conspiracies has ramped up amid interest from other conspiracy theorists like QAnon believers and anti-vaxxers. There is no scientific evidence to back up their claims.
