An inquest has heard that a teenage girl died by suicide following a rare allergic reaction to Wifi which caused her headaches, bladder problems and fatigue.
Tragic Jenny Fry, of Oxfordshire in South East England, suffered from electro-hypersensitivity which her mother, Debra, said was exasperated by the wireless internet connections at her school.
Chipping Norton School, where Jenny was a student.
According to the Irish Mirror, Mrs. Fry told Oxfordshire Coroners’ Court that Jenny began suffering from EHS in November 2012.
She said:
“Both Jenny and I were fine at home but Jenny continued to be ill at school in certain areas.
“She was receiving lots of detentions, not for being disruptive in class or misbehaving, but often because she used to take herself out of the classroom to find another where she was able to work. She took her schoolwork seriously.
“I took lots of information into school to show the headteacher, Simon Duffy, but he said there was equally the same information available claiming WiFi was safe.
“I also had a heated exchange with teachers telling them Jenny was allergic to WiFi and that it made no sense making her take detentions in rooms that were making her ill.
“I fully believe Jenny did not intend to take her own life. I think she was frustrated with school.
“I intend to carry on my campaign to highlight the dangers of WiFi.”
Jenny’s body was found close to her home, shortly after she failed to show up at school on June 11th of this year.
