"no one should attack or hurt or anything like that, but it is very easy to say it is true because it fits the government narrative," he continued.

Holmes was widely criticised for his comments in which He Said she was "incorrectly interpreted" on The Following day program.

"For the avoidance of doubt, I want to make it absolutely clear, There is no scientific evidence to substantiate all these 5G theories," he continued.

Ofcom said that it had this on-air statement in the invoice, together with the "context" of beer had been provided, before the decision for the topic of leadership to ITV "and his moderators".

"In our view, Eamonn Holmes ' ambiguous comments were ill-judged and risks undermining audience, "trust in the guidance of public authorities and scientific findings," it said.

Ofcom said it was "particularly affected" by Icke "the doubts regarding the motives for the official medical advice for the protection of The Public against The Virus ".

A incorrectly 5G suggests suppresses the immune system, the claims of The Other , incorrectly, that The Virus is somehow communicating over The Network , the radio waves, and the victims choose, the acceleration of their dissemination.

While 5G is not used with different frequencies to its predecessors, it is important to recognize that the area is involved, even "ionizing", and it is energy lacks sufficient.

Earlier this year, researchers from The International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection.

While it is recommended, somewhat closer limits for the transfer of functions of the Mobile Phone itself to minimize any chance of damage through human tissue is being heated, his crucial insight was that There was no evidence that either 5G networks, or older systems could be the cause of cancer or other types of the disease.

The Second theory seems to be based on The Work of a Nobel prize-winning biologist, who suggested that bacteria could radio waves to generate.

But this remains a controversial idea. In any case, Covid-19 is a virus rather than a bacterium.

There is another big Problem with these two theories. Coronavirus spreads in British cities, in which the 5G has yet to be used, and to adopt in countries such as Japan and Iran, the still, the technology.
