As 5G wireless technology is slowly making its way across the globe, many government agencies and organizations advise that there is no reason to be alarmed about the effects of radiofrequency waves on our health. But some experts strongly disagree.

There is certainly evidence that ties RF-EMF exposure to a small increase in the risk of developing certain cancers and other adverse health outcomes.

But the jury is still out on how serious a threat RF-EMFs in general — and 5G bandwidths in particular — pose to our health.

For those of us who live in densely populated areas, there is no escape from the myriad radio waves zipping through the air all around us.

To reduce our exposure to RF-EMFs, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) suggest cutting down how much time we spend on our cell phones, as well as using speaker mode or a hands-free kit to create more distance between our devices and our heads.

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommend limiting the time that kids and teenagers spend on mobile devices.

I remember the movie The Terminator. The machines fight the humans in a physical war.

Rather than war, I think the machines will conquer the human race and take over the world in a number of more insidious ways. Initially, I thought that they might drive us all crazy with constant tech updates to our computers and cell phones. Every time there is a darn update, I hold my breath while I wait to see what new problems the update will bring. What will Microsoft or Google do to me next? Programs that i understood in the past no longer work the same way that they once did, and each update seems to bring more and more complexity to my tech world.

Or maybe I will be suffocated under a giant mountain of relentless email. Email seems to swallow up more and more of my time (and I don't even participate on Twitter or Facebook!).

But perhaps they will slowly kill us with invisible waves. I don't think wearing an aluminum foil hat will help to protect us!!
