英国女子对WiFi过敏失去居所工作几乎无处可逃

发布时间：2017-02-20 编辑：查字典英语网小编

A British therapist was forced to give up her job and home to live in a shed because she's allergic to WiFi.

英国一名理疗师因对无线网络(WiFi)过敏，不得不放弃她的工作和住所，搬进棚屋生活。

Rachel Hinks claims to suffer from electromagnetic hypersensitivity. To escape the "harmful" signals released from nearby internet hubs and phone masts, the 43-year-old was forced to move into a shack at the bottom of a pal's garden.

这名名叫蕾切尔·欣克斯的女子声称患上了电磁过敏症。为了躲避附近网络热点和手机信号塔释放的“有害”信号，现年43岁的欣克斯只好搬到朋友花园下的棚屋栖身。

Every day she drives back to home so she can feed the cat and take her outside to give her company, re-exposing herself to the signals that make her poorly.

不过每天她还是要开车回家，因为她要去喂猫、陪着猫咪出去，这样她不得不再次暴露在令自己身体不舒服的信号中。

"At first I had mild symptoms, I noticed when I switched to a cordless phone my ear would burn, and when I tried to use my laptop using WiFi I became very fatigued so I resorted back to using a wired up connection," Hinks said.

欣克斯说：“起初我的症状比较轻微，我发现每当我切换到无绳电话时，耳朵就会灼痛。而且每当我试图通过WiFi使用笔记本电脑时，就会感到非常疲倦，因此只好通过插线上网。”

"Then in December 2015 I became suddenly very unwell - violent shaking, severe head pains, burning rashes - I couldn't sleep more than a few hours at a time and felt like I was in a meltdown."

“到了2015年12月，我突然感觉非常难受——剧烈颤抖、头疼欲裂、出灼痛的皮疹——每次睡觉不能超过几个小时，感觉快要崩溃了。”

But electromagnetic hypersensitivity is not currently a recognized diagnosis and the World Health Organisation says there is "no scientific basis" to link Hinks' symptoms to the emissions from electromagnetic fields.

然而目前电磁过敏症尚没有作为一种病症被承认。世界卫生组织称，“尚无科学根据”能将欣克丝的症状与电磁场的释放关联在一起。
