- Research: The Vatican emits hazardous rays.
- Researchers: Paola Michelozzi of the Roman health department.
- Subjects: People who live near Vatican city.
The Vatican has a huge radio and communications station on the outskirts of Rome, and because the Vatican is an independent country, it's not regulated by Italian law. Dr. Michelozzi's team decided to study the area around the station and the effects of the EMF's.
Their finding: The rate of deaths for men due to leukemia was three times higher than the expected rate within a 1.2 mile radius. For children it was double. The Vatican refuses to release any information about their transmissions.
