The Inquirer reports that inhabitants of a small Swedish town (G ten) began experiencing "sharp headaches and difficulty breathing, blurry vision, and, according to a report, two cases of heart arrhythmia" after the activation of a local Wimax broadband base station. The symptoms went away after leaving the area, causing some in Sweden to urge the government to shut down national networks. Sweden officially considers electromagnetic hypersensitivity a valid medical condition.
