The disease finds itself on uncertain ground. According to the scientific consensus, it is considered a psychosomatic manifestation where the brain turns the body sick rather than an external influence. At the same time, it is continuously under research by this same scientific world that labels it as unreal. We know of magnetic sensitivity in fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and also several mammals. Yet humans seem to be an exception. If humans truly are an exception, it could imply that this ability was lost relatively recently in our evolutionary history. If this were the case, it could be possible that traces of this lost ability persist today. It is clear that the final word on the existence of human magnetic reception has yet to be written. Until then, EHS exists on both sides of this real/unreal question.
