Amanda Holden has been slammed for sharing a petition to stop the introduction of 5G in the UK. The Britain's Got Talent host's name trended on Twitter on Friday evening as people accused her of 'scaremongering' and being 'disrespectful'.
Some conspiracy theorists believe that mobile broadband 5G is dangerous and can actually cause coronavirus, though there is absolutely no evidence to suggest this.
Amanda, 49, tweeted and swiftly deleted a link to a Change.Org petition calling for it to stay out of the UK. The petition claimed that 5G will take all the oxygen out of the air and alters DNA, as well as causing Covid-19.
