This is not true! The millimeter waves of 5G have difficulties penetrating obstacles. They can't be absorbed by the skin!

aminulive: Nigerians on Saturday woke up to viral information being spread about the 5G technology and its connection to the novel coronavirus(COVID-19).
In fact, it generated controversies amongst social media users until the point when '5G' was listed amongst the top trending keywords on Twitter. Although similar speculations had sprung up a few days ago, a prominent fact-checking platform, AFP, found the claims to be unfounded.
"Numerous conspiracy theories shared on and off social media claim that 5G mobile networks are the cause of the novel coronavirus pandemic. This is false; experts told AFP that 5G is based on radio frequency and that this does not create viruses." AFP wrote.
However, the same claims gained more momentum and generated more furore when former Aviation minister, Fani Kayode and Senator Dino Melaye, tweeted about it. A lot of Nigerians are now calling for a boycott of the technology since the coronavirus and 5G conspiracy theory emerged.
POLITICS NIGERIA, in its support for accountability media, finds it expedient to fact check their claims.
CLAIMS: "If people knew what was unfolding & what satan & his Illuminati agents, his disciples like @elonmusk & @BillGates & the proponents of the New World Order have in mind & are doing with 5G, coronavirus &the coming Anti-coronavirus vaccines, every Christian & Muslim would join forces & PRAY!" Mr Fani-Kayode posted on Twitter.
The tweet which was posted around 00:01 am on Friday garnered over 800 retweets and 3,000 likes.
In subsequent posts on Saturday, he cautioned that Nigerians should protest against the introduction of 5G to Nigeria. In the same light, Mr Melaye, who claimed to have been doing research on the Conspiracy theory, advised that the Federal government should demobilise all 5G networks in Nigeria.
"Whether it is true or not that they are already laying cables of 5G in Nigeria or not. Govt must not allow it in Nigeria and should take a proactive step in that regard. 4G that is here in Nigeria sef na problem. 3G dey do everything I need I beg... We must watch out," He posted on Twitter.
Mr Melaye's tweet, as at 6:12 pm on Saturday, has 1312 retweets and 6706 likes.
VERIFICATION: As at the time of putting up this publication, the duo are yet to share the sources of their information.
What is 5G technology?
According to PC Mag, an international magazine, 5G stands for fifth-generation cellular wireless, and the initial standards for it were set at the end of 2017.
It is an upgrade from 4G LTE which uses 'massive' MIMO (multiple input, multiple output) antennas that have very large numbers of antenna elements or connections to send and receive more data simultaneously. It is not transmitted via CABLES.
The benefit to users is that more people can simultaneously connect to the network and maintain high outputs.
While 3G networks had a typical response time of 100 milliseconds, 4G is around 30 milliseconds and 5G will be as low as 1 millisecond. That is how fast it can go, emfexplained.info, a website that provides information about electromagnetic fields, noted.
Health Concerns
The Public Health England says while it is possible that there may be a small increase in overall exposure to radio waves when 5G is added to an existing network or in a new area, “the overall exposure is expected to remain low relative to guidelines and, as such, there should be no consequences for public health.”
Also, the World Health Organisation, WHO, in 2005, raised concerns about the unprecedented increase in the number and diversity of electromagnetic field (EMF) sources.
According to WHO, these sources include video display units (VDUs) associated with computers, mobile phones and their base stations.
"While these devices have made our life richer, safer and easier, they have been accompanied by concerns about possible health risks due to their EMF emissions."
The WHO added that exposure to EMF sources can cause Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS).EHS symptoms most commonly experienced include dermatological symptoms (redness, tingling, and burning sensations) as well as neurasthenic and vegetative symptoms (fatigue, tiredness, concentration difficulties, dizziness, nausea, heart palpitation, and digestive disturbances).
"The collection of symptoms is not part of any recognized Syndrome," the global health body noted.
On the other hand, Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses which may cause illness in animals or humans. In humans, several coronaviruses are known to cause respiratory infections ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS).
There are no links between radiation and viruses against the insinuations of the two politicians. A Popular Fact-checking organization based in the UK, Full Fact has explored these claims concluding that there is no known evidence or proof that 5G can cause or is accelerating the spread of COVID-19.
There is no scientific evidence that links the coronavirus pandemic to 5G, nor any immediate negative health effects to 5G.
5G network not yet in Nigeria - FG
The Minister of Communication and Digital Economy, Isa Pantami, on Saturday, has denied the deployment of 5G network. The minister said the decision was borne out of the government's efforts to protect the lives of Nigerians. He said the National Frequency Management Council (NFMC), is yet to deliberate on the deployment of the network and that no license has been issued for the deployment of 5G in the country.
"A 3-month study trial commenced on the 25th of November, 2019 in order to critically review and study the health and security implications of deploying 5G in Nigeria;"
"As part of the study trial process, I directed the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) to ensure that a team of experts, security agencies and other stakeholders fully participated in the trial process."
"The trial process has been concluded and the study and reporting process is currently ongoing, " the statement read in parts.
CONCLUSION: CLAIMS that CORONAVIRUS is caused by 5G NETWORK and that the technology has been fully deployed in Nigeria are FALSE.
5G did not cause spanish flu pandemic that killed about 50Million people worldwide. China did not create spanish flu as well as other pandemic diseases in history.
No, there isn't at all. You should have taken the hint when he said "I've been learning so much about frequencies and it's a scary topic" This country world is doomed if people have all the information they need at the fingertips but remain so ignorant.
If you review most of the concerns on 5G, you would deduce that the suspicion is not that 5G created Coronavirus, rather, it is alleged to emit high intensity EMF, which interferes with the neurons of living organisms, or causing a rapid transmutation to cells of plants and animal within its field of influence, thereby having the tendency to reduce the natural immunity of the body.
It is therefore suspected, that this makes the body unable to fight off common flu and other mild ailments as it used to do, allowing such ailments to degenerate to acute respiratory disorders.
The resulting transmuted virus from earlier infected persons, capable of mass transmission is suspected to be the Coronavirus.
While these claims remain unverified, it is expedient to research further for good of humanity.

Dnonso22: How do I start? Well, I don’t know all but think I have an idea on this topic.. firstly, Africans are smart but their esteem is very poor.. 5g is not a new thing at all if you ever did physics in high school ranging from electromagnetic field theories to photoelectric effect theories... But my anger with us all is how do we allow ourselves to get to this point that man like you will detect or change your instincts all in the name of church!!! The major problem too is that medical doctors believe him... God forbid bad thing!
Am a physicists. I have study physics my whole life.
The 5G network this conspiracy is about is not just the normal 5G network which has minor effect on humans (Yes there effects in case u didn't know). What u didn't listen to was that there is some artificial intelligence bundled into the 5G that makes it more than just the physics 5G u are talking about. This they say is what makes E.M radiation from it dangerous to humans. Which is possible (even in physics).
Don't be too hasty to rule out opinions just because it came from church or mosque.
Corona virus is common, we have different versions of it in our body. The problem here is that they virus are mutating... now what is causing those mutations?...no one knows
GuestLog: ... I'm glad I'm not the only one who spends time on YouTube. We all hear and absorb information differently. Believe these tech companies at your own peril.
Which tech company? I'm in a tech field and my last paper had been about this exact topic
GuestLog: I do not have knowledge of what dangers lurk in the arsenal of 5G frequency wave. One thing I understand really well is that 4G mobile masts are rumoured to cause cancer due to radiation exposure.
Now 5G is 10x more powerful than all other sub class frequency before it.
I've been learning so much about frequencies and it's a scary topic.
Did you know that the human body can pick up these harmful frequencies because of the electrons in our nervous system? You hack the nervous system through frequencies, you attack the brain because they work hand in hand.
We humans are nothing but antennas to higher spiritual frequencies, the universe is made up of frequencies, that is why we can connect to emotions, feelings, universal laws, spiritual gateways, etc. Which we feel and know but cannot see.
If 5G is as powerful as claimed, then there could be some truth in all the rumours.
One thing to note is that the walls of Jericho fell down because of the frequency from the blast of trumpets and when God said "Let There Be" (that is straight up frequency which has continued to create life on our mud planet.
GuestLog: And you believe these words you spoke because of one video from Seeker on YouTube?
If you need good information, don't listen to this new age scientists, they only speak what they read on manuals and repair guides. Go to videos which are 7-9 years or older. That's where you'll see how frequencies are weaponized.
abdullkabar: Definitely not!!! Are you saying the 5G created a new virus out of thin Air? If the theory was that the 5g aided the mutation of the virus, thereby making it more virulent, or that the 5g mutated our own body defense, thereby making us more susceptible, would have been worth a debate. But organisms are not created from thin air, they only evolve from existing ones.
Learn to use your brain
5g weaken the human immunity and this allows allows a virus from your own Virome to get active ...5g cannot create viruses
jayfolarin: Okay, I am sincerely short of words. One would expect that the onset of technology and unparalled information availability would make humans smarter but the opposite has been the case.
Every nutjob and their uncles now peddle the first insane thoughts that come to their minds as truths and since humans are so addicted to fear, insanity goes immediately viral on Twitter, nairaland or Instagram.
I hate to do this but will explain myself to dumbfucks like Chris oyakhilome, Dino melaye, fani kayode and their brainless followers.
First off, America doesn't have real 5G. What is advertised is “5G Evolution” or “5G E.” Your phone’s “4G” logo will transform to a “5G E” after an update, but nothing has actually changed.
How then do you describe the connection between 5G and coronavirus considering that America has the highest number of cases and death as of today.
5G is a relatively new technology and a quick google search will show you how most countries are still in the decision making or planning stage but this virus is all over the world. You have access to information in your pockets, use it FFS!
I could go on and on but if that example alone doesn't help you; sorry but you are dumb and lost.
What you are seeing now is a surge in western Anti-china propaganda to delay the deployment of a product that for the first time America does not have a hand in deploying. This goes to show you how dumb the average human is and how easy it is for any smart person or group with extensive PR to exploit people so fucking easily.
That Fraud Chris oyakhilome said Literal nothing in his video about 5G that explains the connection to coronavirus. The only thing he basically said is "5G is ten times stronger than 4G, TEN TIMES!!! but I don't want to bore you with all that" and this is the dumbfuck that a lot of people call G.O. Wtf!

Dimahtee: *Below are submissions of three professors of radiation physics in UI copied from Science Faculty platform to debunk the narratives in the trending audio on 5G*
*Dr Popoola*
The man who made this audio message can be likened to someone who is interpreting a strange language he has never studied. He does not know what he's saying. In a simple language, the so called 5G (fifth generation) is a transmission at far higher frequency range than 4G. This feature implies transmission of greater quantum of energy (signal) per time, hence heavy data (such as images) will download faster and will be transmitted at higher resolution. Meanwhile this may require more booster antennas at closer ranges in order to travel very far because high frequency signals get attenuated faster than low frequency signals. In short 5G will be able to accommodate larger data than 4G. Generally, people have always displayed some fear each time a new technology arose. The fear attributed to mobile technology is that the signals (waves) are injurious to humans. Meanwhile all mobile signals most fall within microwaves (extreme end of radio waves) which are non ionizing radiations. Ionizing radiations like x-rays and gamma rays have far higher frequencies and exposure to human body may be injurious. However are not used for mobile telecommunication. The man's use of the word 'radioactive' reveals that he is completely ignorant of what he claims to be explaining. The word Radioactive is from Radioactivity which is a completely different phenomenon from radio wave. Technology is more than speculation. It is a product of basic scientific theories.
*Prof Farai:*
������I remain proud of you Tunde. Just look at the confidence with which he was talking nonsense. I was just wondering how I would present a rejoinder in a language that we will all understand and without sounding know it all. You have captured all with the appropriate words. It is now up to anybody to allow him/herself to be misled. God bless you richly, my brother.
*Prof Jibri:* I really don't understand over stretching of a simple scientific matter. Simple basic physics which our Prof. Farai has laid to rest for us as a guru in Radiation business. Use E = hf from modern Physics and the frequencies or the wavelengths of the regions for the G's what amount of energy do you arrive at. Just like Prof. Farai said, mixing up non-ionizing radiation source to be Radioactive is a simple QED ignoramus!!
*Prof Farai* I hope we will all understand the nonsense in this video from this simple explanation. Communication networks of whatever G, for now and in the near future, are generally in frequencies of the order of Giga Hertz (GHz or 10⁹ Hz). Thank God the video revealed this much. Meanwhile, the bulk of energy from the sun (solar radiation) is in the UV frequency range (i.e.10¹⁵ Hz). Now I ask, how can mankind, who has been bathing under the shower of UV radiation from the sun over the ages, now be under any threat of a radiation of energy over 1 million times less energy than UV radiation? That is one point. Most importantly for us on this platform, there is no application of a technology that is not under any regulatory control by international bodies made up experts from all parts of globe. Most of us have one thing or the other to do with such bodies as WHO, ICNIRC, UNSCEAR, etc. If they are unaware of the fears expressed in this video or have been compromised, then we are all guilty. We should stop attending their programmes.
5G doesn't caused corona virus, but it already damage the body's soldiers thus making corona virus more deadly. Any short wave technology with high frequency will has very high penetrating power and caused equally high damage to the body and living cells.
If 5G has no effects on health, then why are residents of a developed country like China move round to destroy 5G infrastructures in their neighborhood which I have the video clip?
That minister should first test run it in his compound (where himself with the family reside) for a year, then we will be ready to accept it. 3G and 4G are okay for us.
Lawalemi: No. Coronavirus is caused by microbes while 5G can only cause radiation on human
Stop peddling rumor sir,yes there will be effect of radiation from (5G) on human even plants but HAS NOTHING to do with virus.It might cause chronic cancer in future not even next 5_10 yrs but around 20_25yrs.Ordinary Telecommunication mask is very dangerous to be in community but NIGERIA is not a sane society cause it damage to human health but it can't cause virus...Till tomorrow,no study shows radiation can cause virus in human,it is a blatant lies.
Swiss researchers have been able to extract the covid-19 virus and yet some people think that 5G would cause a viral infection?
Waves can only affect health through radioactivity and this manifests in the form of cancer, genetic defects, or burns, not the Flu-like symptoms that characterizes the Chinese Virus.
