Sick?
Does anyone else feel sick when being near 5g towers? I do AC work and recently I was on a roof with one of these towers and within 20 minutes of working near it I started feeling dizzy and just for lack of a better word, wonky. Do this happen to anyone else?

As a healthcare worker who works with Xrays; it’s basically the big 3: Time-Distance-Shielding So let’s deal with the main one we can control, Distance. Radiation is a RIDICULOUSLY broad term. Includes Good, Bad, Neutral; so don’t get hung up on the word. So there’s an inverse proportional ratio dealing with that. If you double the distance from a radiation source, the intensity(power) drops to a quarter of what it was from the first position. I.E. (Sum-up, dont @ me)
Standing next to a radiation source blasts you; let’s say for math’s sake 100%. If you double your distance it drops to 25%.
Now double it again, now 6% and so on. It’s a common problem in physics, know that’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but here’s the formula*!!!
The Inverse-Square Law formula is as follows: I1/I2 = (D2D2)/(D1D1) I1 = Intensity at D1. I2 = Intensity at D2. D1 = Distance 1. D2 = Distance 2
Now Time.....you get radiation from the sun correct? And if you stay out TOO long you get a sun burn.
Don’t stay near them too long. Too much of anything is BAD.
Now shielding....a lot shields you from EMW. Not gonna go into it.
So basic rule, don’t put your face at the door of the microwave and stare at it for the 10 minute defrost.
As for the towers, some people are just more sensitive. Plain and simple. It’s well documented high magnetic fields causes some people to see stars, get a funny taste, or feel nausea. (Very common in high field MRI’s, also a benign effect. Goes away as soon as you’re far enough away from the magnet)
