Keri Hilson Claims Coronavirus Caused by 5G Radiation
Keri Hilson is making headlines, and it’s not because of her music.
Amid concerns over the coronavirus pandemic that’s sweeping the world, the “Pretty Girl Rock” singer shared her own theory as to how the virus started. Taking to Twitter on Sunday, Hilson said she believes radiation from the 5G cellular network has led to the worldwide outbreak.
“People have been trying to warn us about 5G for YEARS. Petitions, organizations, studies…what we’re going thru is the affects of radiation,” tweeted Hilson, who shared screenshots of articles about 5G. “5G launched in CHINA. Nov 1, 2019. People dropped dead. See attached & go to my IG stories for more. TURN OFF 5G by disabling LTE!!!”

And to be clear, I’m saying there have been lots of studies & experiments that point to the possibility that the dangerous levels of of electromagnetic radiation (5G) could be CAUSING the contagious virus. pic.twitter.com/er1lib7hrU

Hilson shared additional articles on the effects of 5G along with a nine-minute video to support her case. “Not sold? It’s a lot. I get it. That’s fine,” she said. “But Google or Youtube affects of 5G, EMF exposure, electromagnetic frequency, & radio frequency radiation for yourself.”
She urged her followers to disable the 5G network on their phones or turn them off completely when not in use. “Turn your phone on Airplane Mode or Power them off when not in use or while you sleep,” she added. “And keep them away from your bodies as much as possible during the day.”
Hilson also claimed coronavirus is not as prevalent in Africa because the continent is not on the 5G network. However, the CDC has confirmed over 200 cases throughout the region.
Why do you think the virus is not happening in Africa like that? Not a 5G region. There may be a few bases there, but not as prevalent as other countries. It has nothing to do w/ melanin (for those theories)…

While she admitted that she is “not an expert on anything,” she received backlash on social media for her conspiracy theory. Some called her “deeply irresponsible” and “completely and utterly wrong,” while others said she must have been hacked.
with the following you have, tweeting this is deeply irresponsible. shame on you.

You apparently have millions of followers.
Perhaps one of them is an actual scientist who would love to explain all this to you and why this is completely and utterly wrong.

Hilson has remained out of the spotlight since the release of her 2010 album No Boys Allowed. The project, which has been delayed for over a decade, is due sometime this year.
