Párrafos breves resumiendo todo:

-----
    Over the past few months a battle between certain concerned
Craigavon residents and iBurst reached fever pitch, with residents
demanding that iBurst move a tower that was erected in Fourways
Memorial Park on 12 August 2009.

    A ‘Craigavon Task Force’ was established shortly after the
erection of the tower, partly because some residents in the area
complained about ailments which they attributed to the tower. They
staged a protest a few weeks after the tower went live, handing out
flyers with the message: “iBurst subjects a residential community
filled with children to uninvited microwaves from their tower”.

    In an email one Craigavon Task Force member, Tracey-Lee Dorny,
describes the affected community’s symptoms: “several rash cases were
presented in person and by photos from people who could not attend [a
meeting with iBurst]. Headaches, nausea, tinnitus, dry burning itchy
skins, gastric imbalances and totally disrupted sleep patterns,
especially with some of the children, were some of the issues
presented by the residents.”

[...]

    What Craigavon residents were unaware of is that the tower had
already been switched off in early October – six weeks before the
November meeting where residents confirmed the continued ailments they
experienced.
