President Trump Wind Turbines Cause Cancer -They Do

Health impacts caused by low-frequency noise from wind turbines have been known to US researchers and the renewable energy industry for 40 years.

It has been known since the early 1980s that noise from large wind turbines can adversely affect human health. In 1981, physicist Neil Kelley and colleagues reported their investigation of complaints from residents living within 3 kilometers of an experimental 2-megawatt downwind two-blade wind turbine in Boone, North Carolina, which had begun operation in the fall of 1979.

United States family physicians over time can expect to see increasing numbers of rural patients reporting adverse effects from exposure to industrial wind turbines.

Falmouth residents who live or work in close proximity to the megawatt turbines have experienced symptoms that include decreased quality of life, annoyance, stress, sleep disturbance, headache, anxiety, depression, and cognitive dysfunction. Many residents have also felt anger, grief, or a sense of injustice.

Falmouth, Massachusetts is ground zero for poorly placed wind turbines in the USA. The Massachusetts Superior Courts shut down both town-owned wind turbines.

The causes of symptoms include a combination of wind turbine noise, infrasound, dirty electricity, ground current, and shadow flicker.

Family physicians should be aware that patients reporting adverse effects from wind turbines will experience symptoms that are intense and pervasive and might feel further victimized by a lack of caregiver understanding.

Commercial megawatt wind turbines noise and shadow flicker cause a lack of sleep lowering the immune system to all kinds of disease.
