I would like to make a small point about the letter signed by "hundreds of scientists around the world".
According to the NY Times there were in fact 239 signatories, which coincidentally is almost the same number as the "253 ... scientists from 44 nations" warning of the dangers of electromagnetic radiation (!) that can be found at https://emfscientist.org/ . If you trust one, do you trust the other also?
Regardless of the merits of the rest of the article, I would caution against trusting a claim just because two hundred odd scientists from all sorts of disciplines were willing to sign an open letter. Science is not a democracy.
The “appeal to authority” is also used to sell toothbrushes. I agree that it’s foolish to trust an article or “fact” because 9 out of 10 doctors agree. I am very interested in why that 10th doctor didn’t agree..
