negative impacts of base stations on public health, on physical environment?
Worldwide, 17·9 million.
– no, hang on. That's cardiovascular disease.
Maybe 10 million?
– drat. I'm mixing it up with cancer.
Of course, it's 8·8 million deaths. Worldwide.
– Ach, sorry – that's from indoor and outdoor air pollution.
Could be as little as 1·5 million, but mostly children.
– Or could that be deaths from diarrhoeal disease? Yup, it is. Sorry.
I give up. If anyone has a friend or relative who has been killed by a base station, would they please notify the questioner.
Sorry. I'm in a very silly mood this evening. I honestly don't know the answer to your question. I got the other figures more or less instantly from WHO statistics, but nothing on base stations. It may not be a major player in world health.
