Side effect of WiMAX waves

WIMAX is indeed more powerful than WIFI and the waves created a huge side effect to the people around the base-station (in the small Swedish town).

The incident happened upon the activation of WIMAX equipment, where the waves spreaded the surrounding area. According to the report, local hospital was bombarded with so many calls from residents complaining that they had headaches, difficulty breathing, blurry vision and heart arrhytmia. The symptoms are said to have subsided after they moved away from the base-station area.

This incident was covered by Swedish TV channel and has sparked to calls for Swedish government to shut down its nationwide WIMAX network.
