British woman wears a real tin foil hat
London (England) - Sarah Dacre’s silvery hat and face net aren’t a fashion statement ; they are a necessity that block harmful electromagnetic radiation. The 51-year-old London resident says modern devices make her sick often giving her intense headaches and dizzness. For the past two years she been a virtual prisoner inside of her tinfoil lined house and only ventures outside in short spurts.
Dacre is one of the growing group of people calling themselves electromagnetically sensitive - people who are physically harmed by radio waves. She says wireless routers hurt the most with cellphones coming in second. To protect herself she painted her house walls with a special tin-foil lined paint and plastered silver netting on her windows.
When she must travel out, Dacre wears a special silver head and face net. The trips are often short and hectic because she must constantly avoid getting close to anyone with a cell phone.
