I work as an RF Engineer tech in the past and still play with radio as a hobby now.

I had a good friend who worked around a lot of RF emitting equipment in larger DOD server and communications equipment rooms. He died in his 40s of Lou Gehrig's disease.

I had a cousin who allowed a microwave tower to be installed on his property, about 300 yrds from his home. He died of a similar disease.

I'm not sayin' that's what killed them. But, my home router has one 2.4G channel and 2 each 5G channels. I only turn on the 2.4G radio. If microwave level freq. was entirely safe, then screens shielding microwave door windows, nor copper gaskets sealing microwave tubes would not be necessary.

Just sayin'...

I worked in the military in every conceivable type of RF environment, from 27khz (literally penetrates the earth) up to the super high frequencies of MW and RADAR.

And then as a civilian in every RF environment.

And I’ve been doing it for over 40 years.

While you will choose what you believe, I can tell you it is unmitigated bullshit.

Sorry about your friend and cousin.

Your story though doesn’t show any real cause and effect.

Your story does however highlight that this Corona/5G speculation is just another iteration of long standing conspiracy theories about RF and microwaves. wash rinse repeat it into the news of the day.
