Childhood Cancer Near High Voltage Power Lines

Post: # 3769Post trumpet_is_cool »

Hi !

It might be interesting :
There is an association between childhood leukaemia and proximity of home address at birth to high voltage power lines, and the apparent risk extends to a greater distance than would have been expected from previous studies. About 4% of children in England and Wales live within 600 m of high voltage lines at birth. If the association is causal, about 1% of childhood leukaemia in England and Wales would be attributable to these lines, though this estimate has considerable statistical uncertainty. There is no accepted biological mechanism to explain the epidemiological results; indeed, the relation may be due to chance or confounding.

Does the Frequency of the Power Lines disturb the Aura ? 50Hz is a low frequency, is the magnetic field compareable with the dangers of too loud noise/has a similar effect ?
