Fact Check
"Scientific studies prove that 5G radiation weakens your immune system and makes you more susceptible to COVID-19. Share this before they delete it!"
"There is no scientific evidence linking 5G technology to COVID-19. The World Health Organization and FCC confirm 5G radiation is non-ionizing and poses no health risk at approved levels."
Our Verdict: False
This claim has been repeatedly debunked by multiple scientific organizations. 5G technology operates at frequencies that cannot damage human cells or affect the immune system.
Detailed Analysis
The claim that 5G causes or contributes to COVID-19 is completely false. Here's why:
- 5G radio waves are non-ionizing, meaning they lack sufficient energy to break chemical bonds or damage DNA
- The WHO states: "After much research, no adverse health effect has been causally linked with exposure to wireless technologies"
- COVID-19 is caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which spreads through respiratory droplets - not radio waves
- Multiple peer-reviewed studies have found no connection between radiofrequency exposure and viral infections
World Health Organization official statement on 5G safety
Federal Communications Commission guidelines on RF exposure
Comprehensive study finding no link between 5G and immune system effects
