Since October 2015, I have experienced persistent auditory symptoms or nonconsensual neural auditory harassment and abuse, including hearing voices and sounds, along with sleep disruption and other symptoms. In 2017 I commissioned a private electromagnetic field and radiofrequency survey called H-SCADA. It recorded low-level magnetic field readings and radiofrequency signals in the 2.5 GHz range. These investigators doing these radio frequency scans using JM-20 PRO or similar detect anomalous frequencies around specific areas of the scanned individual. Researchers can then use frequencies identified during radio frequency scans to search the Federal Communications Commission FCC Universal Licensing System for names and phone numbers and attorneys associated with registrations linked to affected individuals. Multiple scanning reports with these RF frequencies have been admitted as expert evidence of US courts of competent jurisdiction. An attorney I had a consultation with based in California stated that ULS traces in his clients’ cases led to Elon Musk’s private companies, the Department of War, Palantir Technologies and AI development programs sponsored directly or indirectly through a puppet private partnership by the US government, from which his clients are settling out of court. I am also a mother. One of my twin daughters was born May 2014 with auditory neuropathy and wears bilateral hearing aids. I do not know the cause, and I am not aware of research examining whether electromagnetic exposure during pregnancy or early life could play a role in conditions like hers. I raise it because I would like the question studied. Could whatever started causing me to get harassed with microwave auditory effect; V2K/Voice of God weapon October 2015 have actually been set up when I was pregnant with her in 2014, causing her to be born with this hearing loss? I am including some links to studies in rats showing electromagnetic waves damaging cochlea of inner ear which can lead to auditory neuropathy. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25836770/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9442804/ https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/lio2.231 https://news.miami.edu/stories/2018/12/findings-from-havana-embassy-phenomenon.html My concern is supported by the scientific record. The 2020 National Academies report identified directed, pulsed radiofrequency energy as the most plausible explanation for inner-ear and neurological symptoms among U.S. government personnel (the “Havana syndrome” cases), and a 2022 intelligence community expert panel noted “a dearth of systematic research” on how such signals affect humans. A 2018 University of Miami study of 25 affected embassy personnel found balance abnormalities and concluded the exposure responsible was unknown. Later NIH studies found no brain-imaging differences, which shows how much remains unresolved. Similar to the diplomats my daughter also suffered with balance and vestibular issues as well. I respectfully ask HHS to consider the following: 1. Establish a task force. Convene a time-limited task force or working group, led by HHS with FDA, NIH, CDC and FCC participation and independent clinicians, researchers and public members, to investigate civilian reports of unexplained auditory and neurological symptoms in people who believe they have been affected by radiofrequency or electromagnetic exposure. Its tasks should be to: • investigate the reports using standardized medical evaluation and exposure measurement; • hear from affected individuals and clinicians; • report findings publicly, including what could not be explained; and • recommend next steps, including research priorities and clinical guidance. 2. Fund independent research on auditory and nervous-system effects of low-level RF and ELF exposure. 3. Create a reporting pathway. Establish a way for the public and clinicians to document suspected exposure-related health effects, with clear coordination among agencies. 4. Clinical guidance and coding. Develop guidance for clinicians who see patients reporting unexplained auditory phenomena, including a standardized evaluation protocol and a working case definition. Support a request to the ICD-10 Coordination and Maintenance Committee (CDC National Center for Health Statistics and CMS) to evaluate whether a diagnosis code for anomalous health incidents (AHI) or Havanna Syndrome is warranted, so that affected patients, civilian and government, can receive documented care and coverage. 5. Coordination. Clarify which agencies (HHS, FDA, NIH or NIEHS, FCC) are responsible for evaluating these concerns, and how a member of the public can bring one forward. I would be glad to provide additional documentation to the appropriate staff on request. Thank you for considering this comment. Sincerely, Allison Ireland Auburn, NH contact@neuroethicsnow.org

Government has a fundamental duty to protect the public’s health and safety. That duty should come before industry convenience or profit. Laws and regulations governing electromagnetic fields (EMF), radiofrequency (RF), and wireless technology should be based on independent, up-to-date scientific review—not shaped or weakened by the industries they regulate. People should not have to bear potential health risks or losses to their homes and communities without meaningful safeguards. I urge lawmakers to establish clear, enforceable protections that: Require independent assessment of wireless facilities and devices, including cumulative exposures and sensitive locations such as homes, schools, and hospitals. Set exposure limits using transparent, regularly reviewed scientific evidence, with appropriate protection for children and other potentially more vulnerable groups. Require public notice, access to monitoring results, and meaningful opportunities for community input before facilities are approved or substantially modified. Preserve local authority to consider siting, safety, and community impacts. Provide a fair process for investigating and addressing documented effects on health, property use, and property values. These protections should be precautionary, transparent, and enforceable. When the evidence is uncertain, government should not simply assume that the public must accept the risk. It should require independent review, disclose the evidence, and put people’s health and homes ahead of industry interests.

Current permitted levels of RF radiation violate Americans with Disabilities Act! Growing number of people have developed a disability - sensitivity to EMF aka Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS) aka EMR Syndrome. I am one of them. When I am close to wireless devices or cell phone towers I experience severe pain, fatigue, cardiac issues. It feels like you live in a microwave prison. You are tortured and unable to participate in the society, access goods and services without getting harmed. You can’t go to places that have WiFi or in vicinity of cell phone towers which is almost everywhere now: - Schools and offices - Doctor’s offices, hospitals - Public transportation - Hotels - Stores etc. I drive a 12-year-old car. You can’t turn off all wireless features in newer cars – satellite connection, radars detecting lines etc. It became extremely hard to find a home with low RF radiation levels. Every trip into “civilization” is a torture even with multiple layers of EMF protective clothing. A lot of children are becoming sensitive to EMF. Here is news story about a schoolgirl who became sensitive to WiFi in school. She committed suicide because she could not tolerate pain from WiFi anymore: Teen Allergic to Wi-Fi Commits Suicide, Parents Say https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/teen-allergic-to-wifi-commits-suicide-parents-say-223912154.html How many children and adults have to suffer or die, so that we finally take action on establishing limits for RF radiation that protect public health?! I have following suggestions on how to address man-made EMF induced health crisis: - Transfer responsibility for establishing safe EMF levels from FCC to HHS - Establish RF limits similar to Building Biology Institute – less than 0.1 μW/m² - Ban Smartmeters, 5G and any future Gs, WiFi in public places including schools - Repeal Telecommunications Act - Accommodate disabled with EHS by creating no-wireless radiation zones in every metro area – no cell phone towers/radio towers/Smartmeters/wireless devices - Ban Starlink until proven safe - Create guidelines on diagnosing EHS, provide education to doctors on this condition - Fund research on how to decrease symptoms of EMF sensitivity - Order Telecom industry to create a fund to pay for damages to victims harmed by wireless radiation.

I am reporting our experience of adverse health effects and its effect on our lives as individual consumer, patient and family member. 11 years ago my teenager developed sensitivity to mobile phones, Wi-Fi, smart meters and wireless infrastructures. She became aware of it gradually. She had a party trick where she asked her friends to turn their cell phones on or off while her eyes were closed and she would tell them which it was with 100% accuracy. It did not stay benign, however. Her school’s infrastructure was wireless, classrooms had full complements of chromebooks, and all her classmates had cellphones on. My daughter began to have headaches, heart palpitations, irregular breathing, nosebleeds, pain, brain fog, exhaustion, and an inability to string sentences together in the school environment. She was an excellent student who enjoyed school. My husband is a high school physics teacher so bought quality meters to measure various frequencies in different environments. All of our daughter’s symptoms correlated to exposure to high levels of RF/EMF. We started spending a lot of time in large parks, at Lake Michigan, camping, and her symptoms would ameliorate and she would be her normal strong energetic self. We got her a full work-up at her doctor’s but everything came back normal. Her heart irregularities were so concerning, we took her to Lurie Children’s Hospital - a premier children’s hospital in Chicago but got no answers. There was nothing structurally wrong with her heart, and she was told to increase her water and salt and decrease her stress for the palpitations. Her symptoms developed to the point that she could no longer tolerate being in the school building. She had to withdraw from her high school in her second semester of senior year and was unable to graduate with her class. At home, we wired our computers, turned off our wifi router, kept our cell phones on airplane mode, and hired building biologists for anything we were missing. I also developed headaches, fatigue, and brain fog in buildings with wifi, including doctors’ offices and hospitals. My cheeks flush and tingle and feel like they are sunburned. When I return home, I feel exhausted. When I use my cellphone, my hand aches. The difference is that I can still function in these environments as long as I am not in them all the time. In addition, by the time I became sensitive to RF/EMF radiation, I already had my education, work experience, and had experienced a full life. All this happened in Chicago. Unfortunately, Chicago put 5G on so many intersections, that we found ourselves housebound. A second daughter also started to develop sensitivity in her early teens and started having to drop out of all her many activities. We moved semi-rurally. We use a landline at home and wired computers. We love our tech but it has to be wired. We pay $115.77 every month EXTRA on our electrical bill in order to OPT OUT of a smart meter. That’s almost $1400 extra every year because we have an unrecognized disability. The health ramifications have been life altering. It is very difficult to peel back any symptoms even living in a house with low levels of RF/EMF. We have to buy older cars without bluetooth or other accessories and I don’t use gps on my phone when I travel. I keep my cellphone on airplane mode and check in at different times during the day. Our cellphones are older models with less radiation and do not always support updated apps so we are unable to access our banking app for example. Currently, my 2 affected children are both young adults. Neither one can spend time near cell-towers, high power lines, people with cell phones on, 5G, buildings with wi-fi infrastructure. This has severely impacted their daily lives as well as their ability to have friends, find employment, and pursue education. It is very difficult to access dental and medical care as they cannot tolerate the long appointments. They cannot travel or spend time with their grandparents in retirement centers. Their employment prospects are dismal. They can work from home with wired computers but this still means complete industries are closed to them. In addition, many places require you to work in person before working remotely. Besides being a huge loss to them individually, it is also a loss to the nation of smart, hardworking young people who can’t contribute to the economy or the community. My other children volunteer, work, are Eagle Scouts, in community theater and bands, attending college - all activities denied to my 2 who have been made ill by high levels of RF/EMF. Medical practitioners need accurate information, as do school counselors and mental health practitioners, schools and communities that include children need to know about the adverse health effects of high levels of RF/EMF radiation. The testing of safe levels needs to address children and women as well as how the devices are actually used, including the length of time.

I am an individual whose life and health have been dramatically affected by EMF sensitivity. After exposure to a water damaged building, I became more sensitive to all forms of radiation. Symptoms have been: Insomnia, sensitivity to the sun, neurological and balance issues, numbness and tingling, nervous system dysregulation, heart palpitations, heat flushing, extreme brain fog, inability to be on my phone or laptop for long periods of time, and resulting loss of relationships and loved ones who didn’t believe because there is no mainstream credible education to support this reality. I was unable to work for two years and had to leave my home, largely relying on being outdoors as that was the only environment my body could tolerate. Riding in vehicles also became impossible. My hope is that this issue will be taken seriously and more medical education and regulation will exist. Sincerely, a person who has lost everything due to this issue.

QUESTION 2: PERSPECTIVE -- I am an individual who has suffered from EHS (elctrohypersensitivity) for almost 30 years. I was one of the first people to succumb to the negative health effects of computer and microwave technologies. I am now 87 years old, and was hit when I was 59 years old and in otherwise reasonable health. QUESTION 3: EXPERIENCE – In 1998 I came home from work in the movie industry and suddenly found myself overwhelmed with enormous EMF sensitivity. This sensitivity affected me at home, at work, and in travels. I became intolerant of travel by car, plane or train; any lights or radiation (even sunlight when I was at my worst); conductive metals; computers, microwaves, and cell phone technologies; etc. All of this was verified by many doctor, tests, and alternative practitioners over the years, with little relief other than Gabapentin and avoidance. After some years, I began to be able to tolerate a bit more for short periods of time. I am now able to live very carefully within a muted and controlled environment. My symptoms from EMF exposure come from cell phones, wiring, home electronics, and outdoor RF. They have included: severe asthma, indigestion, weight loss, great weakness, trembling, arthritic symptoms, inflammatory swelling, eczema, dizziness, forgetfulness, irritability, depression, and anger (all in my medical records). QUESTION 12: EVIDENCE – 1) There are several books published by people who are scientific researchers or who are themselves EHS and self-treated. These can be found online. Examples include "The Sensitive Patient's Healing Guide: Top Experts Offer New Insights and Treatments for Environmental Toxins, Lyme Disease, and EMFs" by M.d. Nathan, Neil; and books by Dr. Jonathan Halpern, PhD. 2) The field of building biology is aware of EHS and has a specialty in EMF testing and mitigations. 3) Surprisingly, real estate agents are also aware of EHS! Many more people are looking for homes that have less EMF and RF exposure these days.
