“5Bburgers” is a Dutch initiative, started in May 2020 to reach the Prime Minister of the Netherlands, Mark Rutte revealing the “Naked Truth” about 5G. https://www.5bburgers.nl/
“Citizens are asking the Prime Minister the naked truth behind the 5G policy.
Choose health! We are simply citizens.
Citizens who read up on ourselves, citizens who pay attention, citizens who wish to form a society in which people live in good health and satisfaction in balance with nature. With this video we aim to make the Prime Minister of the Netherlands critical (but really, very critical) to look at the possible dangers of electromagnetic radiation where we are now exposed to and the radiation of 5G, if the roll-out of 5G is going to be continued. In the video we tell more about the concerns of independent scientists, the results of independent studies on health effects of radiation and the interests of the ICNIRP for 5G.
The Brussels Minister for the Environment clearly takes his responsibility by not increasing 5G stand and choose the health of the citizens. More research is needed that is too obvious not to see. Mister Rutte must realize that. Help bring this message to Rutte by sharing it with as many people as possible!”
The Netherlands just issued a 5G report that recommended measuring radiation levels and also recommended against using the 26 GHz frequency band for 5G “for as long as the potential health risks have not been investigated.”
Over 600 cities in Italy have passed resolutions to halt 5G, as have cities throughout Europe, such as Trafford, United Kingdom, Lille, France, Ormidia, Cyprus, Balchik, Bulgaria. The Pancyprian Medical Association and Cyprus National Committee on the Environment and Child Health sent Parliament their position paper “The Risks to Public Health from the Use of the 5G Network.” Bermuda has halted 5G pending a report on safety. Switzerland’s report on 5G health effects resulted in the Parliament’s refusal to loosen their radiation limits despite heavy industry lobbying efforts.
Communities are being told that it is necessary to build “small cell” towers in neighborhoods in order to offer 5G, a new technology that will connect the Internet of Things (IoT).
5G will increase ambient levels of wireless radiofrequency radiation. Peer-reviewed research has demonstrated a myriad of adverse effects from wireless radiofrequency radiation including increased brain cancer, DNA damage, oxidative stress, immune dysfunction, altered brain development, damaged reproduction, sleep changes, hyperactivity, and
memory damage.
Insurance authorities classify 5G as “High Risk.”
It is standard practice for insurance coverage to exclude health damages from wireless and electromagnetic radiation. The Insurance authority Swiss Re released a white paper classifying 5G as a “high” emerging risk cautioning that “potential claims for health impairments may come with a long latency.” If insurance companies won’t take the risk why should we?
If 5G, cell towers and wireless is so safe, then why do all these organizations recommend reducing wireless exposure?

60 Officials in France
A petition addressed to Prime Minister Jean Castex, signed by over sixty elected officials including Jean-Luc Mélenchon (deputy of Bouches-du-Rhône (FI)), Manon Aubry (European deputy (FI)) or Michèle Rubirola ( mayor of Marseille) who urged the government to decide on a moratorium on the deployment of 5G. The petition references the increase in wireless exposure and the need to assess environmental effects before deploying 5G.
“We, mayors and elected officials are immediately proposing a moratorium on the deployment of 5G at least until the summer of 2021. During this moratorium, we are asking for a decentralized democratic debate on 5G and on digital uses. We ask the municipalities for the right to subsidiarity concerning the application of the precautionary principle.” Read more.
400 US Doctors and Medical Professionals Submit Opposition to 5G to US Government
Over 400 medical professionals have told the FCC it was wrong not to update its RF human exposure guidelines. The letter was signed by doctors, both medical and PHDs, nurses and others submitted as comment on a recent FCC decision 19-226.
In the letter to the FCC, dated June 17, the medical professionals said the FCC “completely ignores the documented adverse health effects that can occur at the FCC’s current radiofrequency (RF) exposure limits, much less those that may occur at the expanded range of frequencies contemplated in the proposed rule.”
“Americans are entitled to know the full extent of any potential health risks associated with exposure to RF microwave radiation, particularly at this time when wireless companies are busy installing hundreds of thousands of new wireless antennas in close proximity to homes and apartments. The determination of risk can best be evaluated from properly conducted, independent studies. The alternative of waiting for decades to learn whether or not these exposures increase disease rates in human populations and in the natural world is a dangerous and irresponsible strategy.”
2019 Resolution: US Doctors and Experts wrote President Trump calling for a halt to 5G
“We join with the thousands of doctors, scientists and health care providers worldwide who have recently issued appeals for urgent action on 5G to protect public health. The rapidly growing list includes the International EMF Scientist Appeal, Appeal to the European Union, Belgium Doctors Appeal, Canadian Doctors, Cyprus Medical Association, Physicians of Turin, Italy, the German Doctors Appeal, International Appeal to Stop 5G on Earth and Space and the International Society of Doctors for the Environment.
We call for a moratorium on 5G and any further wireless antenna densification until potential hazards for human health and the environment have been fully investigated by scientists independent from the wireless industry.” –December 11, 2019,

“The Alliance of Nurses for Healthy Environments is made up of nurses from all over the US working in the areas of public health, environmental health, clinical practice, research and academics. As medical and public health professionals, we are writing to express our opposition to the above captioned rule. We believe the Commission has failed adequately consider the established and newly emerging science on RF microwave radiation and its impact on human health.”
“Is the FCC engaged in a conscious effort to disregard science to facilitate the rapid deployment of new technologies to benefit industry at the risk of our health and well- being? Asserting that there is no harm is misleading at best. The commission has a very important responsibility to protect the health and safety of the public. ..Proceed with caution and put public health first.”

2020 German Environmental Organization Bund
Telecom Paper, Bund signs petition to stop 5G in Hamburg, Thursday 13 February 2020
- “The electro-smog working group of German environmental organisation Bund has delivered a petition with over 6.000 signatures to the First Mayor of Hamburg, Peter Tschentscher, opposing construction of a 5G network in the city. Bund believes that the expansion of 5G should take place only after testing the impact of the new technology on health and the environment”
- Hamburg – The environmental organization BUND is calling for an expansion stop for the latest 5G mobile network in Hamburg
“Without an assessment of health and environmental compatibility, the infrastructure should not be expanded, said regional manager Manfred Braasch in Hamburg. In addition, the mobile network is currently being expanded without the required technology assessment. The BUND handed over his demands with 6000 signatures to the mayor’s office of Mayor Peter Tschentscher (SPD).”

2019 Position Paper on 5G of the Pancyprian Medical Association and Cyprus National Committee on the Environment and Child Health.
- The Pancyprian Medical Association and Cyprus National Committee on the Environment and Child Health position paper on 5G is entitled “The Risks to Public Health from the Use of the 5G Network” and was sent to the Cyprus Parliamentary Committees on Environment and Health. The position paper is based on the historic Nicosia Declaration of 2017.
- The position paper emphasizes the lack of safety studies, the increase in exposure and the potential interactions of the network with other telecommunication networks. The paper also highlights the lack of a reliable method to measure the radiation levels in real world situations- an issue that was raised in the 2019 European Parliament Report “5G Deployment State of Play in Europe, USA and Asia”which states that, “ the problem is that currently it is not possible to accurately simulate or measure 5G emissions in the real world.”

Romanian Academy “Responsible scientific analysis regarding consequences of 5G technology use on public health necessary”
- 8/27/2020 The Romanian Academy press release stated, “before putting in place the 5G system, a responsible scientific analysis is absolutely necessary, to target both the evaluation of risks on the health of humans, as well as establishing total maximum exposure standards.”“In this context, we bring back to attention Resolution 1815/2011 of the Council of Europe, which mentions that: ‘all reasonable measures will be taken to reduce exposure to electromagnetic fields, especially to the radiofrequencies of mobile phones, in particular for children and youths who seem to be exposed to risk of head tumors’ and requests the maintaining at the ‘lowest achievable level’ (ALARA principle) in what regards exposure time, distance and screening. We warn that the implementation of 5G technology, without a concrete evaluation of the risks and vulnerabilities, may have grave consequences on the health of the population and may generate sensibly higher damages than advantages.”
