Re: [Goanet] Why not tell us what research have you done?

Dear Prof Girish Kumar,

This refers to your subject line " Why not tell us what research have you
done?"

Allow me please to Preface my Questions to you with the following:

(1) I am not sure about the effects on humans of Radiation emitted by Cell
phone towers.
(2) I am aware of the published scientific on the matter.
(3) However, I believe that it is the Right of the Residents to object to
themunless there is an overriding national security interest.
(4) I am one of those who would prefer NOT to have a Bunch of those Towers
in my back-yard.

(5) I believe that the reported statement by Dr. Shekhar Salkar could &
should have been worded differently.
(6) Dr. Salkar is a qualified surgeon who has significant experience in
Cancer Surgery.
(7) I could be wrong but I believe that FICS (Oncology) is NOT a
degree/qualification.
(8) You, Dr. Girish are absolutely within your rights to ask Dr. Salkar the
question you have asked.

While he does that, here are My Questions to you:
a: Are you a Physician ?
b: Have you PERSONALLY studied the effects on Humans of Radiation from Cell
Phone Towers in India/elsewhere.
c: Would you please provide access to Your Study Design, Materials &
Methods, Statistical Tests used to analyse that Data and Conclusions
reached?
d: Do you still have the Raw Data You collected and studied?

Just in case you are wondering: Yes, I should know a thing or two about
Research.

best

Re: [Goanet] Why not tell us what research have you done?

2016-09-22 Thread Girish Kumar
To, Dr Shekhar Salkar

Recd your following email, which is forwarded by Mr. Prakash Munshi, who
has asked me for comments.

In reply to Question NO. 3of Mr. Prakash Munshi
Do you know what our Honourable Prime Minister says of on radiation from
Mobile Towers? He has written under his signature that Radiation from
Mobile Towers has proved killers to the creatures and bees. Do you feel
that the Honourable Prime Minister’s opinion is false?

*You have mentioned in your Answer *
*"Yes, I feel the honourable Prime Minister’s opinion is false because he
is neither a scientist nor a medical doctor. He has never done any
experiments on any creatures."*

So much disrespect to India's PM is not good. I fully agree with  him that
Radiation from Mobile Towers has proved killers to the creatures and bees.
You should know that PM has access to all the scientists and medical
doctors of India.

There are 4000 scientific papers, which are written by 100's of scientists
of the world and peer reviewed and published in the best possible journal
of the world. How can you neglect these papers? I know that there are
25,000 papers, which say there is no health hazard or there is no
conclusive evidence but scientists have found that nearly 75% of these
papers are funded by industry.

I have interacted with 100's of people who have developed several health
problems, such as, headache to cancer.
I have myself done experiments on rats using electromagnetic radiation and
noted severe health hazards due to EM radiation.

IARC classified RF radiation as Possibly Carcinogen (Class 2B) but
unfortunately WHO classified only Cell Phone as Possibly Carcinogen (Class
2B).
Nearly 200 scientists have urged WHO to classify RF radiation as Probable
Carcinogen (Class 2A) and even Known Carcinogen (Class 1).

Even IMC report of Jan. 2011 and Environment Ministry Report of Nov. 2011
have documented 100's of papers, which show health hazards.

If you want, I can give you plenty of papers, people who are affected by
radiation, birds, bees, trees which are getting affected and so on.

I am copying this email to several others who have interacted with me in
the past.
