The Church and mobile phone masts

Ray Bonnici, as property manager of the Curia, has clearly
stated that that the church “follows the directives of the local health and other civil authorities” when it comes to the possible
health hazards of mobile phone masts and related EMF radiation.
Is Ray Bonnici aware that the local health authorities have so
far, publicly, not even attempted to comply with the
latest EU resolution?
Is Ray Bonnici aware that the ex-health minister Dr Louis Deguara,
incorrectly stated/predicted that all studies conducted by the WHO
were to be concluded by 2003? (Press statement, 10 August 2000).
Six years have elapsed.
Is the Curia aware that the WHO in 2009 stated that there are gaps in knowledge of EMF radiation and the effects on health, which still need to be filled? (http://www.who.int/peh-emf/research/en/). Are you, Ray Bonnici, “just for the sake of the matter” aware that
the WHO have not as yet quantified the missing gaps in the
knowledge that they claim to have?
It is such a pity that such wonderful technology (mobile phone), which should be embraced by all, is left in the hands of
people with a ‘stray cat mentality’. What is beautiful and wonderful is now becoming ugly and dangerous.
The underlying cause is a combination of indifference, money and greed.
