Since the outbreak of coronavirus something strange has been happening – attacks on telephone masts and telecom workers are being reported all across the world.

But at a time when many businesses are struggling, could this apparent threat be helping to fuel a whole industry of strange and expensive products? And worse, could stoking these fears actually be damaging people’s health? Assignment investigates how bad science could be making you sick.
