Claiming to be physically allergic to the electro-magnetic waves of Wi-Fi coming from mobile phones and high-tension wires, two "electro-hypersensitive" women Anne Cautain and Bernadette Touloumond find refuge deep inside a cave in southeastern France, Le Nouvel Observateur reported.

On the hillside, a sign reading "Mobile Phones Prohibited" warns visitors to turn off their mobile devices.

"It causes burning that is unbearable," Anne Cautain, 52, said. "I could no longer stand being at work or in my apartment."

A former employee at the University of Nice, Cautain is spending her third winter in the cave.

女子电磁波过敏住山洞

       据法国《观察家》杂志报道,安妮·考顿和伯纳黛特·杜乐蒙德两位对电磁波过敏的女性躲在法国东南部的一个山洞内“避难”,她们对无线上网、移动电话还有高压线等产生的电磁波都过敏。

       山洞门口醒目标注着“禁止移动电话”的字样,以警告来此游玩的游客关掉他们的移动设备。

       52岁的安妮·考顿表示,“只要一接触类似信号,我浑身就灼热得难以忍受。我再也忍受不了呆在办公室或住所了。”

       考顿曾在尼斯大学工作,她已经在山洞度过了第三个冬天。
