Malignant melanoma of the skin – not a sunshine story!

Summary:

 

Background:

In an earlier study on malignant melanoma incidence in Sweden, Norway,

Denmark and the USA, we found a strong association between the

introduction of FM radio broadcasting at full-body resonant

frequencies and increasing melanoma incidence. The purpose of the

current study was to review mortality and incidence data for malignant

melanoma of the skin in Sweden and its temporal relation to increased

" sun-traveling " , and to the introduction of FM and TV broadcasting

net­works

..

Material/Methods:

Official, published information was collected and displayed

graphically. These data included incidence rates of malignant

melanoma, death numbers, charter travel statistics, and data on the

expansion of the FM broadcasting network in all counties of Sweden.

 

Results:

A good correlation in time was found for the rollout of FM/TV

broadcasting networks while the increased amount of " sun travel " by

air (charter) did not start until 7 years after the melanoma trend

break in 1955. Counties that did not roll out their FM-broadcasting

network until several years after 1955 continued to have a stable

melanoma mortality during the intervening years.

 

Conclusions:

The increased incidence and mortality of melanoma of skin cannot

solely be explained by increased exposure to UV-radiation from the

sun. We conclude that continuous disturbance of cell repair mechanisms

by body-resonant electromagnetic fields seems to amplify the

carcinogenic effects resulting from cell damage caused e.g. by

UV-radiation.
