Health Canada Manipulates “independent” Safety Review Of Cell Phone Radiation, Former Microsoft President To Testify

27, 2013 /CNW/ – The former President of Microsoft Canada will testify Monday that Health Canada has manipulated the outcome of a safety review of radiation from cell phones, cell towers, Wi-Fi and smart meters. “We have uncovered documents that prove Health Canada is controlling the so-called ‘independent’safety review by the Royal Society of Canada,” said Frank Clegg, now CEO of Canadians for Safe Technology (C4ST).”Health Canada is ignoring the science that explains why some Canadians are getting sick from microwave radiation.” The Royal Society of Canada is holding the public meeting in Ottawa to hear from Canadians who have developed symptoms such as insomnia, headaches and heart palpitations from everyday wireless devices. Doctors and researchers will also be testifying, and calling for stricter safety measures. The Royal Society panel reviewing microwave safety has been dogged by controversy. The chair of the panel resigned in July after he was exposed for an undeclared conflict of interest.

29, 2013 photo, Syrian children play football outside their homes in Madaya village after school in the public school in the Idlib province countryside of Syria./ AP A possible cluster of polio cases in Syria has some health officials worried a larger outbreak may occur in the war-torn region. The country hasn’t seen a case of polio since 1999, the World Health Organization noted in a statement on the suspected outbreak. The cluster was first seen in early Oct. in the Deir Al Zour region of the country, and preliminary tests from the national polio laboratory in Damascus found two of the cases could be positive for polio. “Syria is considered at high-risk for polio and other vaccine-preventable diseases due to the current situation,” the WHO said. More than 20 people appear to be showing symptoms, Oliver Rosenbawer, from the WHO’s Global Polio Eradication Initiative, told The Telegraph .
