What sort of people are those? Are we talking about "psychics?"

"psychics" type of activities are mostly about "souls"/etc long after the original death event. I don't yet know a good rationalization for that.
People have various ranges of abilities/sensitivities and i just theoretically allow for outliers like one or two orders of magnitude difference for some people (or a mutation producing for example something along the lines of that magnetic field vision that birds have (some molecule in their eyes acting like a compass))

OP probably chose the vague and general "[very sensitive to EM] people" exactly to avoid labeling.

Given how quickly EM radiation attenuates with distance, I find the idea of a human detector ludicrous. I’ve also never heard of “EM sensitive” people who have been proven to be something other than nuts. In this particular case the activity would be so faint you’d probably need a MEG or drill through the skull and implant electrodes to detect it.
Saying that a human could do the same from a distance is magic masquerading as pseudoscience.
that should generate a [miniscule] EM wave.
>This depolarization develops en masse from either one or multiple foci and spreads in the tissue as a self-propagating wave.
so a very sensitive EM detector should see a burst of EM radiation. One can wonder whether some [very sensitive to EM] people may perceive that as "departing soul" (and technically that burst of radiation does have the imprint of the neuronal configuration which generated it). Also one can wonder (well it can be calculated/measured i suppose) whether that burst of EM radiation can cause some electrostatic effects and or some kind of luminescence around the body in say very dry air or the air with very fine dust or in presence of some non-typical gases or liquid drops suspended in the air.
