news he has to share?
Sweden acknowledged ES as a physical impairment in 2000. Official statistics
from the Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare: 220,000 in the year
2001, but extrapolated to today to be up to 300,000. This is 3% of the
Swedish population which today is 9,000,000 people. With an estimated 300,000
sufferers. Swedish employees can request special computer monitors and lighting
fixtures that dramatically cut down frequency emissions. Residents of some
municipalities can get their home "sanitized" from electromagnetic frequencies.
If these alterations turn out not to be optimal they can rent small cottages
in the countryside owned by the Stockholm municipality, which also intends to
build a village with houses that are specially designed for persons who are
electrohypersensitive."
