Click on the patch to open the Propublica article on this topic, with a link to the science-based letter sent to the CEO of Girl Scouts of USA.
The Environmental Health Trust, an activist nonprofit which first spotted the Ericsson program, recently sent a letter of protest to the Girl Scouts’ national office, saying the patch materials “misleadingly state that 5G networks and cellphones are safe,” and urging their removal from all Girl Scout websites. They further stated that “No U.S. health agency has ever made such a safety determination for these frequencies, nor has any agency reviewed the totality of the science to develop health based safety standards for millimeter waves or wireless radiation.”
