Arsonists have targeted a mobile phone mast serving a new coronavirus hospital in the UK after 'deluded' 5G conspiracy theorists triggered a wave of attacks

Jeffery said that the arson attack might have damaged the mast to the extent that critically-ill patients in the hospital and their relatives might not be able to call each other. "It's even more upsetting that even the small solace of a phone or video call may now be denied them because of the selfish actions of a few deluded conspiracy theorists.""In practice, this means families not being able to say a final goodbye to their loved ones; hard-working doctors, nurses, and police officers not being able to phone their kids, partners or parents for a comforting chat.
