Cancer? From monitors? Is that a thing people believe? Do they think "the 5G comes from all them screens" ?
Literal doctors trying to convince me that monitors emit cancer causing radiation.
I had to explain to a doctor what ionizing radiation was... And that's how I learned that doctors are just like every other profession. And there are just as many morons that graduated med school as morons that graduated high school (proportionately).
I'm guessing old CRTs. I've heard they can emit radiation if they aren't lead lined.
