Since the installation of 5G in y area I am tired so much of the time. My son who lives with me has to take a long nap during the day too. The before and after effect has been abrupt, not gradual. I try to keep as many wireless devices out of my home as possible, and even pay $10 a month extra to have an analog electrical meter. It amazes me how the government could make an experiment of this magnitude without being entirely sure of the health effects on every living creature on this planet.

I’m old enough to recall safety concerns with wireless radiation so I’ve taken steps to actively limit exposures but i see 25 year olds now keeping their phones in their pockets or restimg on their lap- they assume that all is fine because surely we would know if it was. Safety assessments are long, long overdue.

I have definitely noticed pain and a tingling sensation in my hands when using certain cell phones (so I use them less often now. I think we should conduct studies to try and understand some of the risks, and hopefully try to make wireless technologies safer to use.

RF radiation exposure that i have been exposed to has caused Brain fog, hearing problems/buzzing and fatigue. This has reduced my ability to work. Pleaase update your regulations to reflect the negative effects of RF radiation. Thank you Beth Chiodo

I've personally been impacted by wireless radiation through devices at home and work. From headaches, sleeplessness, and inability to concentrate, wireless radiation has significantly impacted my life, as I've had to spend money i don't have on airtube headphones and expensive EMF blockers that I must carry everywhere to stay in my protected bubble. This has helped, but I don't know what the next generation phones and other technology may bring that I'll have to research ways to mitigate just so I can function. It's egregious that the FCC has allowed unbridled rollout of all of this wireless radiation without simple safety testing. Go to those in the EMF blocking industry. They can help, quickly. Stop harming generations of people.

When I hold my phone up to my ear my head hurts for hours. My arm bones hurt just from holding it. When I go places with no cell service, all my tension and anxiety just melts away. I believe it worsens anemia.

I am writing regarding the FCC’s response to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals’ remand concerning its decades-old radiofrequency (RF) radiation exposure guidelines. The Court directed the FCC to provide a reasoned explanation for its determination that its guidelines adequately protect humans against harmful effects of RF radiation unrelated to cancer. Specifically, the court required the FCC to address the impacts of RF radiation on children, the health implications of long-term exposure, the ubiquity of wireless devices and technological developments, impacts on the environment, and the adequacy of the FCC’s testing procedures for cell phones and other portable devices. The FCC should fully consider evidence and real-world experiences concerning the health and environmental impacts of wireless radiation, including non-cancer health effects, impacts on children, long-term and cumulative exposure, cancer, and impacts on wildlife and the environment. The FCC is not a health agency and does not have expertise in medicine, biology or public health. Yet, the agency continues to assert authority over RF exposure standards and is preparing to reach conclusions about whether its existing guidelines adequately protect the public. I urge the FCC to recognize the critical role of federal health agencies, including the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and to rely on appropriate health and biological expertise when addressing the issues identified by the court. This issue matters to me personally because: I live in a condominium complex and my building has five attached units. Five out of the five units have residents who have been diagnosed with cancer, four with bladder cancer and one with lymphoma. We have had the water tested by the State DEP and the result shows no reason for concern. There are seven cell towers within three miles of our building, two of which are within less than one-half mile. I urge the FCC to give meaningful consideration to the experiences and evidence before it and to fully address each of the issues identified by the court.
