Cell Towers Not Responsible For Illness

drewmoney notes a BBC article on a major UK study of whether cell towers (or "mobile phone masts" as they are called in the UK) cause illness. The study concluded strongly that symptoms of illness caused by mobile phone masts are all in the mind. People claiming sensitivity to radio emissions showed more symptoms in trials, according to the article, whether signals were being emitted or not. Quoting: "Dozens of people who believed the masts triggered symptoms such as anxiety, nausea and tiredness could not detect if signals were on or off in trials. However, the Environmental Health Perspectives study stressed people were nonetheless suffering 'real symptoms.' Campaign group Mast Sanity said the results were skewed as 12 people in the trials dropped out because of illness."

It was not the cell phones. There is a huge battle raging between the virtuous wizards and the evil Death Eaters of Voldemort. Hexes, jinxes, curses, spells and charms are flying all over Southern England. The Death Eaters are killing the muggles and the Ministry of Magic is desperately trying to keep it hidden by erasing memories of many people. The stress they feel is just the side effect of these charms.

Voldemort died in 1998.

Harry's parents died October 31, 1981 when Harry was one year old. So that means he turned 17 in 1997 and Voldemort was killed the year after that.

So clearly all of these reports of headaches and anxiety are due to an entirely new dark wizard.

You seem to think the JKR counts the years from the year the muggles believe Jesus Christ was born in. Nah. The Wizard year count starts from a different event. Which will be explained in the up coming Encyclopedia of Wizardry by JKR.
