The substation social media page is absolute GOLD 😆
This team is cursed, the injury thing is exhausting.
I really hope Aaron Donald stays retired, he was a nightmare with just his regular supporting cast. Pairing him with Garrett would be Lebron levels of team-stacking.

If you closely read some of my previous posts you will discover that US EMF safety standards are questionable if not unworkable when as they do not take into account oxidative stress which both RF-EMF and ELf-EMF cause which effects skeletal muscles. Time to open our minds up to a much bigger lens of consideration.

It reveals statitical evidence that the level of injuries changed dramatically after the substation was highly upgraded for Levi's and other parts of Santa Clara meaning much more EMF..here so data from the youtube...

The 49ers ranked as the NFL's 10 healthiest times for five consecutive seasons from 2008-2012.
Odds of that occurring in independent random rankings: approximately 1-336

They then ranked among the NFL's most injured teams in 12 of the next 13 seasons.
Odds of that occurring in independent random rankings:approximately 1 in 124,640.

Odds of both sequences occurring consecutively, assuming every seaso is an independent random draw:
Approximately 1 in 41.8 milliom

What changed between 2012 and 2014?

The electrical facility next to Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California—known as the Silicon Valley Power Mission Substation—was significantly expanded in 2014 alongside the stadium's opening. While specific operational power flow increases fluctuate by demand, online analyses estimate the facility's design capability expanded dramatically (with speculative or theoretical capacity jumps cited up to 2,000% compared to older legacy footprints), featuring a total configuration of three transformer banks rated at 50 MVA each (150 MVA total). [1, 2, 3]

This is a massive change in EMF coming off the substation. Odds of 1 in 41.8 million that the shift in injuries timed exactly with this increase in EMF is far to stunning to dismiss.

What are the emf readings at the practice facility?

Good reference. Sometimes feels like we're in that alternate 1985 timeline.

Better yet, what are the readings for the people that continue to believe this is the problem. I've said this before but other teams are having as many or more injuries as the 49ers and they aren't all next to power substations. Injuries are going to happen. Maybe it has something to do with the way the 49ers practice. I've heard that their practices are intense but I've also heard from players that say they aren't as rough as some others they've been in.
For real, at this point with the amount of money Jed has, just move the damn practice facility somewhere else and eliminate all the noise.

Obviously too damn high.

They have been considering a new faciity because they need more space. Not because of the substation. It's not that easy to find a suitable space in Silicon Valley. There isn't a lot of room to build and it's a lot more expensive than you think it is since anything new will need to have all the latest amenities. Their two previous facilities were in Rocklin and Stockton and both were far from the stadium and really hot in the summer.

The Rams are building a new facilty in Woodland Hills where temps can often reach the upper 90s and low 100s. Lot's of bad air in the area. Some people are already questioning the location.

You don't need to politicize these conspiracies to explain why people are believing them and be angry at them. The truth is there are a variety of beliefs all over the spectrum.

I personally think the vaccine was fine and this substation theory is beyond tiring. But that doesn't mean you can just poopoo these things as "lol probably just a bunch of dumb MAGAts believing it lmao"

Some people are of the opinion the Earth is flat.
The substation has its own Twitter account now
