‘Anti-5G’ Necklaces Worn by Conspiracy Theorists Are Actually Radioactive, Nuclear Experts Warn
PUT THAT DOWN

Nuclear experts are warning that jewelry marketed to protect wearers against 5G is actually radioactive. “Don’t wear it any more,” the Dutch authority for nuclear safety and radiation protection instructed, per the BBC. “Put it away safely and wait for the return instructions.” The “anti-5G” devices, like bracelets and necklaces, supply a demand created by conspiracy theories that claim 5G phone networks are dangerous to human health. The World Health Organization has promised that 5G, like its preceding 3 and 4G, is perfectly safe—no amulets needed. Of the items that the authorities identified as giving off “harmful ionising radiation” are an “Energy Armor” necklace and a children's bracelet called “Magnetix Wellness.”

I was standing near two people having a conversation about how stupid masking and vaccinations are.

They agreed that aspirin and ivermectin were the only real way to deal with covid and that only vaccinated and masking people even get sick.

They are both teachers at our school (one is retired and subs most days).

The positive is that a lot of the robotics teams wore masks. More than half of the people there were masked, but nearly no one from our town.

From killing themselves? Outlaw the children’s line of course, but subsidize a buy one - get two free sale on the rest of it. Tell them they need to wear all the “amulets” 24/7 or it won’t work properly. The more the better.

the reporter had included what the source of the ionizing radiation is, along with its half life.

Even in 6th grade, I knew that was bullshit.
