Since always, and especially now that we are witnessing the installation of antennas that will promote fifth-generation mobile phone connections, or 5G, we have heard all kinds of comments related to the supposed dangers that living near an antenna of mobile telephony .
Well, along the following lines we are going to try to answer the question about what happens if you live near a mobile phone antenna, analyzing each of the positions in this regard, and what are the factors that we should take into account. when judging the potential risk.
In this way, we will consider the opinions of each of the parties, so that you can draw your own conclusions about it and, why not, share them with us if you wish.
It is true that telephone antennas generate electromagnetic fields around them since, in reality, everything around us produces some kind of radiation. The problem with antennas is that they have a power thousands of times higher than that of other objects and, therefore, they should be kept away from urban centers.
In fact, some scientific evidence in animals shows that constant exposure to this radiation could well be the cause of the appearance of cancer in living beings, although human beings are hardly vulnerable to these electromagnetic waves for a long time.
On the other hand, there is also no lack of research that indicates that the radiation that arises from the antennas is not much greater than that of a medium-power bulb, to which we are exposed for most of the day, and at a very low distance that compensates for the lower power.
Some argue that the walls of buildings are a protective barrier against electromagnetic fields , reducing the radiation that the human body can perceive and suffer.
In summary, we could agree that telephone antennas are as dangerous as other objects that we use and to which we do not pay too much attention, although not enough for us to consider their abolition, especially given the relevance of the networks. .
It is even worth remembering that radio and television also reach our homes making use of electromagnetic waves and that, obviously, they do not represent a risk above what is tolerable, or we would have given up on these technologies long ago.
