Report on 2004 WHO EHS conference

Marc Martin
Administrator
Hi all,

In our eSens "file" area, I've added a 12-page Microsoft
Word document containing a report on the WHO EHS conference
from last October. This report comes from Lucinda Grant,
and also covers some other topics of interest to folks
with ES.

You can find it at:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/eSens/files

The filename is:

who_es_conference_report.doc

If for some reason you cannot access this file, just email
me and I'll email the file to you.

Marc

Thanks Marc,

That is a very promising report. Good to see so many doctors from so many
countries taking ES sersiously. It may only be a few years before our own
GP's learn and accept that ES is a real problem, and provide proper support.

Re: Report on 2004 WHO EHS conference

Drasko Cvijovic
Was it some other WHO EHS conference than the one I attended :-) :-)?

The dominant conclusion there was that the E(H)S phenomenon has not yet been
verified as really related to electric devices operation!
Unfortunately, I have no objections to that conclusion, although I am ES
myself.
I have to admit that we have not succeeded in obtaining convincing evidence
that the phenomenon is real! Most provocation studies simply - fail. And
from the side of the officials there is no readiness to focus at the small
number of case studies that seem not to be failing - they simply ignore
them...
All we can hope is that somebody would soon invent a proper experimental
design in which ES people would be having 100% predictive response...
Fortunately, there are some scientists aware of that necessity!

from what you originally posted on this WHO conference, I think the
assumptions of the majority of presenting 'scientists' (mostly
psychologists, yes?) about what constitutes 'convincing evidence' and
how that evidence should appear need to be scrutinized. When your
worldview doesn't allow particular metrics, or attach significance to
accepted metrics behaving in an unpredicted fashion, you're going to
ignore the evidence.

The evidence does exist. The problem with the majority of the
research is that it is done by folk who don't believe the phenomenon
can be something besides psychosomatic. When you're not measuring the
appropriate metrics, or interpreting the observed data in a completely
unbiased way, the results of your study are flawed. And I'd bet the
majority of the 'researchers', if they were really honest with
themselves, would admit that they have a bias towards proving it is
just psychological since that fits their worldview and the worldview
of their sponsors. Biased studies, biased and/or suppressed results.

And there is a very strong push to bury the physical reality of ES.
It is financially unpopular with industry and, hence, politically
unpopular with government. How much of this plays into the
presentations at the WHO? A tremendous amount.

Re: Report on 2004 WHO EHS conference

Benson, Sarah (Sen L. Allison)
In reply to this post by Marc Martin
One of the difficulties though with testing for ES is that most
scientists are not totally familiar with the way electricity and
radiation work; well, none of us are -its an area we're still learning
about.

I was asked a couple of years ago to take part in an ES study at a
university here in Melbourne - but before taking part I asked them about
their methodology. When the chief scientist said that they were not
taking any particular measures to shield the testing room from other
sources of radiation not involved in the study, I lost interest and
backed out of being involved.

The way that radiation and ELFs affect the human body is complex;
different frequencies affect different organs or/and people in different
ways. There are windows, for example, where one particular frequency
(apparently) will have no affect at all on the body, whereas a bit
higher on the spectrum this all changes. Prof Ted Litovitz at the
Catholic University in the US is an expert in this area, and Neil Cherry
had a thorough understanding of these problems as well.

So I think until the scientific/electronic engineering fraternity get to
grips with all this there's very little point in trying to provide any
'proof' or expect much acknowledgment from the medical community, apart
from a few enlightened Scandinavian souls!

Drasko,

provocation studies always will tell that EHS does not exist. Imho
the problem is that it is not understood as radiofrequent radiation
sickness (disease) with phases, windows, doses, accumulation,
threshold values, different frequencies with different characters,
person-connected parameters, a-specific symptoms and effects like EHS.

What the scientists do is 1. the moon can not exist (dogma). 2. They
see reports of people who have seen full moon, half moon, no moon at
all. 3. They conclude the reports are inconsistent, the moon cannot
exist and we don't understand how, so no proof of anything. Stupid,
of course. As soon as you know the moon turns around the earth and
the earth around the sun, you understand how it works and why the
reports are not consistent, the conclusion is the moon exists.

We should emphasize time and time again it is radiofrequent radiation
sickness (disease) (by vdt, microwave, gsm, umts, tetra, wifi, wlan,
dvb-t, the whole mix) by non-ionising, non-thermal heating
radiofrequent radiation. This moon has been seen full, half and none.

Re: Report on 2004 WHO EHS conference

Drasko Cvijovic

Frans,
That about Moon is good, I have't heard that before!

Anyway, what I wanted to say by commenting the posting about Lucinada
Grant's paper (that had been added at Group's site), was that her paper
doesn't reflect the reality of that Meeting. With all the respect to her
efforts and what she is doing for ES issue, I have to say that this her
paper is more what we would like it had happened in Prague... She probaly
had just partial information about the event, as the complete papers from
Meeting are unavailable, just the abstracts were printed in the limited
number of copies...
