Debunking 5G coronavirus conspiracies

The video discusses coronaviruses, focusing on SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19. It addresses false conspiracy theories linking 5G technology to the coronavirus, explaining that 5G waves are non-ionizing and lack the energy to harm human health. The video emphasizes that there is no scientific evidence supporting claims that 5G causes health issues. It also highlights the importance of understanding that correlation does not imply causation, using the example of 5G infrastructure and COVID-19 case distribution.

Which virus is responsible for causing the disease COVID-19?

• SARS-CoV-2

• MERS-CoV

• H1N1

• Ebola

What is one of the false claims about 5G technology related to health?

• 5G is used in space exploration

• 5G causes the coronavirus

• 5G improves internet speed

What type of radiation do 5G waves emit?

• Ultraviolet radiation

• Ionizing radiation

• Gamma radiation

• Non-ionizing radiation

Why do areas with more 5G towers potentially have more coronavirus cases?

• 5G towers are built in hospitals

• 5G towers spread the virus
