Herbert Pollack
Herbert Pollack was a medical consultant for the State Department.
Herbert Pollack was a medical consultant for the State Department. He advocated on behalf of the victims of the Moscow Signal in a Senate subcommittee investigation. The Moscow Signal was a microwave beam aimed at the U.S. Embassy in Moscow by the Soviet Union, which was believed to have caused adverse health effects in embassy personnel1.
Pollack stated that every lawsuit filed by U.S. embassy employees against the government for exposure to the Moscow Signal was eventually withdrawn, "without a penny being paid." This occurred despite concerns raised by some scientists, like Robert O. Becker and Allan H. Frey, about the potential lethality of the microwave signals1.
