BIOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF MICROWAVE RADIATION: A Review of Hazards
Wellington Moore, Jr., D.V.M., Ph.D. · 1968
Government scientists were studying microwave radiation biological hazards in 1968, decades before today's ubiquitous wireless exposure.
Plain English Summary
This 1968 government report by veterinarian Dr. Wellington Moore examined the biological hazards of microwave radiation exposure. The study represents early scientific recognition that microwave radiation could pose health risks to living organisms. This research helped establish the foundation for understanding EMF biological effects decades before widespread consumer electronics adoption.
Why This Matters
What makes this 1968 government report particularly significant is its timing. Dr. Moore was investigating microwave biological hazards when most Americans had never heard of a microwave oven, let alone carried a cell phone. This early scientific attention to microwave radiation health effects demonstrates that concerns about EMF exposure aren't new or fringe - they've been documented by government researchers for over five decades.
The reality is that while Dr. Moore was studying microwave biological effects in laboratory settings, today we're all participating in an uncontrolled experiment. Your smartphone operates at microwave frequencies, your WiFi router broadcasts microwave signals, and your home is filled with devices emitting the same type of radiation that concerned government scientists in 1968. The difference? Today's exposure levels are exponentially higher and constant.
Exposure Information
Specific exposure levels were not quantified in this study.
