My family . . . \u00a0[has] been severely impacted by the insidious nature of noise from the Macarthur wind farm. \u00a0We have been subjected to audible noise which at times can be clearly heard above the television. \u00a0We also know, through paying an acoustician, that our house is subject to infrasound. \u00a0This causes my husband severely disturbed sleep. \u00a0It also impacts on two sons when they are at home. \u00a0I suffer bouts of nausea, which seemed to ease up over the summer \u2014 different wind direction generally \u2014 but in the last couple of days, as the wind blows from the west I have had a couple of \u201cattacks.\u201d \u00a0It concerns me that when I reported severe nausea (dry retching over the kitchen sink \u2014 and I’m 59) to my General Practitioner, he said it wouldn’t be caused by noise from the wind farm. \u00a0However, if that is his belief, then isn’t he negligent to not investigate further?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

.<\/span>
\nI am appalled at the Position Statement that the Australian Medical Association<\/a> (AMA) has put out regarding wind farms and health. This statement smacks of collusion with the wind industry, and is nearly a direct quote of all the propaganda they put forward to the gullible public. I would have hoped that a professional body such as the AMA would think independently about this growing and serious health issue, and looked a little deeper into the mounting evidence that will condemn wind farms to being recognised as the danger to health that they are.<\/p>\n

My family is fortunate to live on the volcanic plains in Western Victoria, but have been severely impacted by the insidious nature of noise from the Macarthur wind farm. We have been subjected to audible noise which at times can be clearly heard above the television. We also know, through paying an acoustician, that our house is subject to infrasound. This causes my husband severely disturbed sleep. It also impacts on two sons when they are at home. I suffer bouts of nausea, which seemed to ease up over the summer \u2014 different wind direction generally \u2014 but in the last couple of days, as the wind blows from the west I have had a couple of \u201cattacks.\u201d<\/p>\n

It concerns me that when I reported severe nausea (dry retching over the kitchen sink \u2014 and I’m 59) to my General Practitioner, he said it wouldn’t be caused by noise from the wind farm. However, if that is his belief, then isn’t he negligent to not investigate further?<\/p>\n

I believe the AMA has taken a very dangerous position here to the detriment of the health of rural Australians. Until there is multi-disciplinary research this position cannot be justified.<\/p>\n
