What do the years 1889, 1918, 1957, 1968 and today have in common?
Those are the years of, in order, a severe influenza pandemic that lasted 4 years, the Spanish Flu, the “Asian” influenza pandemic, the “Hong Kong” flu pandemic, and the COVID-19 pandemic.
In addition, these years are landmarks of electrical impact on the natural world as the electromagnetic field of the earth was suddenly and profoundly disturbed.
How so?
Historians agree that the modern electrical world began in 1889 with the extraordinary increase of practical applications of electricity. With the invention of alternating current motors, power generating stations were built to send electricity to turn on electric lights in homes and factories, with power lines strung throughout the cities. In addition, these motors could power locomotives, and numerous additional rail lines were laid.
In 1957, the radar era began. The cold war defense consisted of early warning radar stations located at high latitudes of northern hemisphere with microwave radiations. The radar was not confined to the stations, it drifted even to the southern hemisphere because of earth’s electromagnetic field.
In 1968, the satellite era began with the launch of dozens of satellites to a layer of the earth’s magnetic field susceptible to impact.
Finally, late in 2019, 5G was rolled out in numerous cities around the world. This fifth generation wifi could power the internet of things such as cars and home appliances. In fact, practically anything can be outfitted with antennas and microchips to connect to the wireless cloud, resulting in the potential that there will be 100 times as many antennas as people on earth.
Setting aside the most recent events, let’s look at the history of influenza through the ages.
Since ancient times, influenza has been seen as unpredictable. It was called influenza because its coming and going was thought to be mediated by the “influence” of the stars. It turns out that the star most influencing earth, humans and our health is the sun.
Nature has been predictable
The sun is a source of light and energy for the earth. The sun goes through somewhat predictable cycles of about 11 years known as sunspot cycles. Scientists have discovered that these cycles affect our earth’s weather as well as human mood and health.
The movement of electrically charged hot gasses in the sun create its magnetic field. This creates a cycle spanning 11 years or so. Between cycles the sun’s magnetic field completely flips; the north and south poles switch places. You can imagine how dramatically this affects the sun!
Disturbances in the magnetic field create sunspots. These are regions of strong magnetic fields which jut out from the sun’s surface. The cycle starts with no sunspots, increases to a maximum, then is back to none over these 11 years.
One strong influence on human health is the disease we know as influenza. Canadian astronomer Ken Tapping along with two colleagues confirmed that for the last 300 years influenza pandemics were most likely to occur during peaks of solar magnetic activity, at the height of the 11 year solar cycle.
Astronomers call the years between 1645 and 1715 the Maurader Minimum. Our sun had virtually no sunspots though there were over a dozen sun cycles possible in those 150 years. Then in 1715, sunspots reappeared suddenly and increased for years in the cycle. In 1718, influenza moved through the human population in waves, appeared on every continent, and an estimated 2 million people died. The influenza epidemic peaked during 1732 – 1738 which correlated with the peak of the solar cycle.
By the way, sparrows seem to be the bird most sensitive to electricity. They suffered the most among birds during the flu pandemic or 1732 – 33 upon the return of sunspots.
Influenza as an electrical disease?
If nature and us humans as a part of it are that responsive to the electromagnetic field of the sun, then what about man-made electrical activity on the earth?
Author Arthur Firstenberg, in his book “The Invisible Rainbow” – A History of Electricity and Life states that “influenza is an electrical disease.” That book is chock full of evidence of correlation of electrical phenomena and illness. He details influenza as well as electrical sensitivity, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer.
As mentioned, influenza has been on earth a long time. In fact, how influenza manifests had remained consistent for thousands of years. It would come with no apparent warning, and disappear for years or decades. That is, there was no warning unless you know how to track solar cycles and sunspots.
The manifestation of influenza on earth changed abruptly in 1889. That was the year human electrical wires first prevailed creating stronger human-made electromagnetic fields on the face of the earth. Since then, influenza happens every year, in every part of the world.
The correlation is there. Could this be part of the cause of influenza?
Exploring further
This brings up several questions.
I wonder to what extent the electromagnetic fields are the cause of influenza, since we find a virus in sick people. Could the virus be a bystander which is activated by the strong electromagnetic field?
Does this explain how influenza appeared on the world at just about the same time in each pandemic outbreak?
William Beverduge included in his 1975 Textbook on Influenza something curious. In the 1857 outbreak, crew members got sick with influenza on ships outside of Cuba. When they got to shore, they discovered that their outbreak correlated with outbreaks on land, although they did not have any contact. How did they get it? Why was it the same time as people on shore?
There are many other historical accounts of influenza appearing globally, without an explanation of how it could be transmitted so quickly, especially when world travel was relatively slow.
- Since animals are affected by electromagnetic emanations, and birds are particularly sensitive, could birds be the sentinel of a coming flu epidemic, instead of the cause?
- Could other wild animal blamed for being the cause of a virus that jumps to humans simply be affected by the same thing that human are, but a little sooner because they are more sensitive?
- Could we all just be responding to the electrical effects in our environment? Could the virus either be an innocent bystander, or be activated by the electrical effects?
- Could electromagnetic fields affect other viruses besides the influenza strains?
- Could this pattern be playing out right now?
The evidence mounts
Update May 5, 2020 – Arthur Firstenberg collected evidence in this well-documented paper. With it, he appeals to stop 5G on Earth and in space.
From the paper, Arthur Firstenberg states:
It is not a coincidence that Wuhan, China turned on its first 5G communication network just two weeks before the first known person became ill there with a disease that has since shut down the world.
It is not a coincidence that the Diamond Princess cruise ship set sail with 5G satellite communication antennas on board, immediately before the same disease sickened hundreds of its passengers.
It is not a coincidence that Germany, this spring, brought 4G-LTE technology for the first time to areas near its borders immediately before small birds began dying in large numbers in precisely those areas.
Viruses are constituent elements of life on Earth. Microwave radiation is foreign and lethal to life on Earth. It is time that humanity recognizes these facts.
From the appeal, because it says it so much better than I can:
Telecommunications companies worldwide, with the support of governments, are poised within the next two years to roll out the fifth-generation wireless network (5G). This is set to deliver what is acknowledged to be unprecedented societal change on a global scale. We will have “smart” homes, “smart” businesses, “smart” highways, “smart” cities and self-driving cars.
What is not widely acknowledged is that this will also result in unprecedented environmental change on a global scale. Despite widespread denial, the evidence that radio frequency (RF) radiation is harmful to life is already overwhelming. The accumulated clinical evidence of sick and injured human beings, experimental evidence of damage to DNA, cells and organ systems in a wide variety of plants and animals, and epidemiological evidence that the major diseases of modern civilization—cancer, heart disease and diabetes—are in large part caused by electromagnetic pollution, forms a literature base of well over 10,000 peer-reviewed studies.
Even before 5G was proposed, dozens of petitions and appeals[7] by international scientists, including the Freiburger Appeal signed by over 3,000 physicians, called for a halt to the expansion of wireless technology and a moratorium on new base stations.[8]
The reason for the current inadequate safety guidelines is that conflicts of interest of standard-setting bodies “due to their relationships with telecommunications or electric companies undermine the impartiality that should govern the regulation of Public Exposure Standards for non-ionizing radiation”. [92] Professor Emeritus Martin L. Pall lays out the conflicts of interest in detail, and the lists of important studies that have been excluded, in his literature review. [93]
To refuse to accept and apply relevant and valid scientific knowledge is ethically unacceptable. Existing research shows that 5G—and especially space-based 5G—contravenes principles enshrined in a host of international agreements.
What can we do about it?
Read the appeal and sign it here. I did.
