The woman says to the men that the work they're doing will contribute to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Efforts to stanch the spread of misinformation over the coronavirus is also extending to traditional media outlets, with regulators saying they will go after broadcasters perpetuating false claims.U.K. media regulator Ofcom took action a radio station this week following a segment containing"potentially harmful claims.
"During the current pandemic, it's important that potentially misleading information about the coronavirus is not broadcast on radio or TV," the statement said.
do the fucking math
Are you saying 5G is safe? Because you mentioned the BBC. I read the BBC article, and every paragraph was a LIE.
Wohhh. Ignorance right!
NPR YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM.
ΝYC ΙCU DR with nothing to gain shares INCREDIBLE insight... Dr. Cameron Kyle-Sidell CoronaVirus Stop5G
g_knapp Until we know more about their safety and the federal government stops fast tracking everything it can in the name of 'business', I will bring the marshmallows when it happens here :)
g_knapp Nah bro..everyone knows that windmills are the real cause of the spread, chopping up bats and blowiy thier covid filled blood across the planet
O，5G may not spread Con19.. but maybe4G hhh
How can some people be so stupid. theenemywithin
Typical NPR BS. Baseless sources are the common source for NPR stories to push the socialist/Democrats agenda. Just like taking money from the pandemic funding. The people at NPR are pathetic in every way.
Wouldn’t be surprised if the conspiracy theory took off here like wildfire. They elected their own trump.
Why are people so unremittingly stupid?
God, we’re stupid. Ironic to be mal-adapted to the world we create.
The luddites have awakened and are at it again.
All you have to do is look up the effects of electromagnetic waves on the human body. And you'll see that electromagnetic waves at high frequencies can destroy our immune systems and cause respiratory problems js.
I don’t believe the conspiracy theories, however, hard to ignore when a top Harvard dept head of bio-science & students are indicted on federal charges this year (he was getting paid on a project out of Wuhan) & 2 others arrested in Chicago w/SARS vials
Where I live a woman with a -checks notes-, 'PhD in Homeopathic Medicine,' argued that 5G (and basically any radio wave), is toxic and causes cancer. I'm assuming she's part of the group of people who wear lead underwear to protect their genitals from the government.
npr-dnc has become salesman for Chinese gov telecom companies. Guess they had to thank China for the $75MILLION American taxpayers' $$$$ due to ChineseVirus stimulus bill that just passed.
Truth. The real fear behind 5G: its Chinese based technology, & we know how that government loves to spy on everyone. You cant trust it, but it getting in your head, doesnt mean to snack there. Its privacy invasive. & just bc its new doesnt mean we need it.
There is a petition to ban 5G towers or something like that. I skipped it without thinking too much about it, but I never thought it was this big of an issue. How does that even become a legitimate theory that people take seriously.
Truth. If this is snother catchy disease-we cannot be without communications! Not now esp. If a tower goes down that you need a signal.. omg- just hang this ppl upside down by the ankles for the next 18 months! From one of the towers they attack. As a warning to others.. js
5GCoronavirus how long before they ring their phone company to say their internet is not working
ITS NOT TOO FAR FETCHED, THERES A REASON WHY YOU GUYS ARE NOT TOO CLOSE TO YOUR BROADCAST TRANSMITTER... RADIO FREQUENCY ENERGY CAN BE HARMFUL AT CLOSE RANGE, THAT'S NOT BASELESS... THIS STORY REMINDS ME OF WHEN NEWS PAPERS WOULD SAY CIGARETTES ARE HEALTHY IN THE 50'S..
Thank Fox News and the extreme right wing media for turning to cult brainwashing tactics to force their agenda onto the American public, where it then spread to the whole world. That's the pandemic that really needs addressing.
Fake news ！No one in America is sick .We're going to meet friends. We're going to party all night .We need to get together and let everyone know that no one in America is sick .Free Americans will not be confined to their homes
Baseless conspiracy theories tying racism to the Covid-19 pandemic...
Stupid people everywhere
Humans have always had a proclivity for tall tales to help explain life's mysteries.
What, and I can’t stress this enough, the fuck.
Qanon is a national security risk and needs to be shut down. They are endangering human lives with their nonsense.
When people like PBS say something is a baseless conspiracy then it makes me think there must be more to this. When I see the Chinese and Europeans burning the 5G towers on YouTube it makes me wonder. When I saw everyone on China wearing masks and warning us I worried.
People believe that tripe!
Glad they’re burning them down tho
They’re not conspiracy. Jesus.
I can't believe I'm asking this again but, is this shit real? Where do these start?!
Get out the tinfoil helmets!
borisjohnson supporters? I'm surprised the dopey Trump supporters here haven't tried to burn down windmills.
There is no bottom to the stupid well.
We live in a stupid world.

g_knapp jarue369
Is it baseless? Why do they think the 5G is dangerous?
g_knapp Maybe we just do NOT want 5G.🤔
Sad: The nutters—in self-isolation like the rest of us—are binging on conspiracy theories. Bad: The trolls & sociopaths are feeding the nutters fears. Mad: The Fear & Chaos agitators (foreign & domestic) are lighting the nutters fuses, who now feel cornered and are lashing out.
So it’s not just Americans...
Time to break out the tinfoil... those brainwaves must be getting through!
This is crazy!
I saw that the contractors who are building the network are considered mission critical and are out working even in locked down city/states.
Burning those towers down couldn't hurt.
Humans are morons
Starlink is coming SpaceX will solve this problem going to be the ultimate delivery wireless communication
Months ago the media were saying that the posibility that the COVID19 was leaked from a chinese lab was a 'conspiracy theory', now even the Washington Post are saying that maybe COVID19 leaked from a chinese lab...
People can be so stupid, they are willing to believe some outlandish shit, than to actually research... still won’t wash their hands and stay home doe 🤦🏽♂️
Of course the weirdo luddites who have been spreading conspiracy theories about 5G for the past couple years would make up new ones tying 5G to COVID-19.
If this was in the US I guarantee it would be FL.
Lie.
This is right up there with windmill cancer in the 'delusions of an idiot' category. 🤦♂️
Reading this, as an American I feel some relief that we don't have a monopoly on stupidity.
It’s Oil wells and drilling rigs. They caused this
Idiots
Stop destroying the planet. Nothing else has to be said.!!!
Whatever is opposite of what you’re being told, is probably true. So I’m not discounting this.
Wow, people are ridiculous.
People are so stupid 🙄
What about low IQ third worlders being in the UK?
We deserve what happens next. 🤦🏽♂️
Glad I don't have no 5g.
Is this fucking real life? 🤦♂️
I heard you can get it by riding on a tractor in a bikini.
Trump heads live off conspiracies and fear mongering . It's what got him elected
Thought the study on 3G, 4G, 5G was brain cancer cause of the electrical flow so close to brain when using cellphones?
I heard it was caused by “selfies”.
The stupid never ends...
Dumb is highly virulent and everyone's catching it.
Reminds me of when our POTUS spread the debunked conspiracy theory that windmills give you cancer. 😞 WindmillCancerSurvivor
bc they don’t want 5g. everyone was doing fine with 4g and even more fine before that. they are tired of the few deciding how the rest will live with no say.
What the fuck? At least 'cell towers cause cancer' kinda makes sense if you don't understand the difference between ionizing and non-ionizing radiation. This is just stupid? Do they think you inhale the signal or something?
You are fake news.

NPR, this is America and we want our money back!!
Hahaha just when you need them to work done idiots do this. Enjoy being home without 5G 😅
Where is the effing asteroid?
proof
🤣
maybe on paper theres a conspiracy theory, but isn't general pandemic anarchy the motivation? its the feeling of wanting 'no covid-19' and letting it mesh with 'no 5g', and the feeling of liberation from staying at home
You just can’t fix stupid.
you gotta say this now...standing by a 5G tower for 24 consecutive hours and you’re cured of Covid19...anybody standing there you ship to a mental institution..😂
This is how someone like Trump gets elected.
Effects include increased cancer risk, cellular stress, increase in harmful free radicals, genetic damages, structural and functional changes of the reproductive system, learning and memory deficits, neurological disorders, and negative impacts on general well-being in humans5G
Not yet but you never know
Not enough data but we should all fear 5G. Do your research.
NPR reports conspiracy theories whenever they disseminate Chinese and WHO directives and statistics without question. Which is every day.
They’re idiots.
These same idiots are actually being infected by the Dark Web Virus. Stay off your damn computers!
Npr to the rescue !
Stop being brainwashed! Trump just signed two Bill's to rollout 5G and it's not a coincidence that they are now installing them in schools while they want us inside our homes.Also watch this video of them talking about Fiveg.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think this is the part in our world history class where everything goes off the rails.
Radiation is linked to cancer, not viruses. What is wrong with these maniacs? I do think 5g should be further tested though. Scientist seem clueless about what the side effects could be.
Aaaand this is the reason the internet is just not a great thing for everyone.
This has shown the world that the average person is stupid and their stupidity will literally kill millions in the event of a real disaster. This is why education should be more freely available and MANDATORY.
This is going to bring out the fringe groups with their imagined conspiracy theories.
Is this April Fools joke? People spread Corona Virus!
Everybody loves a good conspiracy
The attack against 5G is part of the misinformation Anti-Conspiracy theory campaign of fake, false theories that are baseless. These take away from actual theories & dilute the truth to nothing. This includes flat earth, reptilians, 911 holographic planes & “the matrix” FAKENEWS
lololo wtf.. maybe in the US, but the UK? very off brand
However there is a lot of scientific evidence linking this theory to idiots.
Oh god😒
No, but 5G is extremely dangerous and horribly unhealthy. Just sayin.
Still doesn't mean that 5G is safe.
Not baseless
Only in the UK.
What am I missing about this conspiracy theory? Even as far as conspiracy theories go, this seems dumb. Like, vaccines/autism - that’s obviously stupid from a science perspective, but if you squint hard you can see the logic. This doesn’t even seem to reach the level of specious.
Now, let's look for COVID rates in those areas over the next month.
How can people be so stupid to believe this conspiracy.
It’s getting out there jenuinehealing ThereseKravetz
That is completely Trump's Russian installed bots. They are currently trying desperately to deflect from Trump's utter incompetence during COVID19Pandemic
Idiots
Well, people are idiots, it's not a gender, race, age or ethnic thing - it's just a fact, humans are idiots, the vast majority at least.
narendramodi
Stoopidity reigns supreme everywhere I guess
The level of stupidity 😂
Are these people also watching Fox? How is anyone that stupid (On both accounts)
If a doctor has to choose between two patients and one ventilator, please don't pick the Trump supporter.... TrumpLiedPeopleDied
Omg.
The wisdom of God is mans foolishness
