5G-Virus Conspiracy Theory Fuels Mast Damage Amid U.K. Rollout

A fire-damaged telecom tower, reported in local media as being a 5G network mast on the EE network, operated by BT Group Plc, stands in Birmingham, U.K., on Monday, April 6, 2020. Telecom masts that enable the next generation of wireless communication were set on fire in the U.K. in recent days, apparently by people motivated by a theory that the tech helps spread the coronavirus. Photographer: Darren Staples/Bloomberg via Getty Images
