Is 5G a threat to humans and birds? German research gives definitive answer

June 14, 2025, New Delhi To dispel rumors about the effects of 5G technology on human health and birds, Germany's Konstruktor University has conducted important research. This research showed that 5G waves do not have any negative effects on human skin. According to the research results published in PNAS Nexus, scientists exposed human skin cells (fibroblasts and keratinocytes) to high-intensity 5G waves of 27 GHz and 40.5 GHz for more than 48 hours. These are the most powerful frequencies of 5G. The results showed that neither gene expression changed nor was there any difference in the methylation pattern of DNA. That is, 5G waves are safe for human skin. Effect of frequency According to the research, frequencies up to 3 GHz can penetrate the skin up to 10 mm, while frequencies of 10 GHz or higher only penetrate 1 mm. The effect of frequencies from 27 to 40.5 GHz is even less. High-intensity radio frequencies cause skin damage when they are heated, but 5G waves have no heating effect. Link between birds and coronavirus? This study has not found any link between 5G and bird deaths or the coronavirus. Rumors have also been dismissed. For now, this technology is safe for humans and birds, unless new research proves otherwise. The result is that the concerns about 5G have been proven to be unfounded. Now enjoy the high-speed internet while using it properly and stay away from rumors.
