I am writing this in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure. I appreciate that you provide individuals and families with an opportunity to be heard on this very important subject! I have managed to keep my household low on EMF's (we don't have wireless wifi and don't use cell phones at home) and have therefore not suffered personally any adverse effects I have witnessed others suffer serious health problems from exposure to wireless radiation and therefore support HHS taking an active role in examining the potential health and environmental effects of wireless radiation. Questions about human health should be addressed by federal agencies with appropriate expertise in medicine, biology, epidemiology, and public health, and the experiences of individuals and families who report being affected should be considered alongside the scientific evidence. I urge HHS to carefully evaluate these experiences and the scientific evidence, identify gaps in current research, give particular attention to children and other potentially vulnerable populations, and establish appropriate federal research priorities regarding wireless radiation and public health. Thanks for taking this to heart!

I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure. I am responding from the perspective of an EMF DISABLED patient, parent /my daughter is also EMF harmed, I am a healthcare professional-Family Nurse Practitioner of 42 years, and a researcher / author and Anti-EMF advocate, & concerned member of the public. I had to leave my medical clinic 5 years ago because the landlord put WiFi Routers above and next to my clinic. Then the local electric company EWEB put a SMART Meter on the building. I became light headed, headaches, nausea, my blood pressure spiked and I became unsteady on my feet with fuzzy thinking. I could no longer see patients in my medical practice. I moved my Nurse Practitioner clinic home and had to let go my 3 staff. This rather wrecked my finances. My home had a safe analog electric meter, and I had thrown out my cell phone and got wired modems and a $3,500 Power Perfect device on my electric system to take out all dirty electricity from the power lines coming into my house. That worked until the dread Eugene Water and Electric company forced me and everyone else in town to get a digital SMART METER ON THE HOUSE. Five ex-military “Security people” from EWEB appeared and 3 of them were in body armor with a taser on one hip and a pistol on the other and told me they were here to take your meter lady”. Fabulous intimidation, I was 74 years of age were they expecting I would wrestle them to the ground? The day they put the SMART meter on my home I immediately had high pitched buzzing in my head ,chest pain, my blood pressure spiked, headaches and I was unsteady on my feet. I could not stay in the home so I slept in a friend’s shed with no power. I called EWEB the next day to see if they could give me another type of meter. They sent another armed guard and a bucket truck out and told me I had to keep this meter that I had or they could cut the power at the pole…...So they cut my power on Sept 27, 2024 because I could not live in a house with a Smart meter and be EMF Disabled. Two years later I am running off a solar generator and had to change out $55,000 in getting all new natural gas appliances for a refrigerator, heating stove, water heater,solar panels.My oven does not work since it is electric and I have been cooking all my meals on a Coleman camp stove for 2 years on a covered deck in all weather. I am now 75. Unfortunately I am still not safe living here due to more EMFs/ cell towers and my neighbor’s homes emitting RF and it was my “Forever home” of 20 years and it looks like I am to be forced out of here. I have one 30 watt non LED light bulb in the whole home that runs off a solar generator and my computer. I spend my evenings with candles or REI back packing lanterns for light in the home since the power was cut at the pole 2 years ago. I still have high pitched buzzing in my head, fuzzy thinking when it is high with awful fatigue that comes in waves. I can pick up 16 of my neighbor’s WiFi routers, and their SMART meters & a baby monitor on my EMF /RF meter. I have NOT slept through the night in 3 years now since the SMART meter roll out. I NEVER wake up refreshed no matter how many hours I am trying to sleep. I have come to hate nights due to the constant buzzing. My white blood count has dropped due to the EMF exposure and I am working myself up for auto immune problems and it has stirred up my in-remission Epstein Barr from 30 years ago. I now have all leather grounding shoes, 4 grounding mats to sit on, a grounding mat on my bed that is grounded on my mattress, I have grounding silver thread sheets and a $1,300 SILVER thread Faraday canopy over my bed. I have put aluminum radiant barrier on my bedroom walls/ ceiling and floor and have put 2 layers of aluminum screen over my bedroom windows and the mesh is grounded with a metal rod. All of this blocks some of the EMFs/ RF, but not enough. On the www.AntennaeSearch.com website my home comes up with 161 large 5G towers and 492 small cell antenna within 3 miles of my home. They have a new 5G 500 foot tower 0.2 miles from my home with 3 telecoms on it, I can see the tower from my back deck. When it was 4G it did not give me symptoms .“They” put in 15 large 400-500 foot towers during Covid when people were not looking/ distracted ,along the railroad track which curves so all 15 of these Damn towers are ¾ of a mile from my home. I am being COOKED and I feel rotten. If I go out into the country away from cell phone towers ALL the buzzing in my head goes away and my cognition totally clears up and I have energy again. The RF/ EMF/ 5G towers & cell phones and wifi routers made me sick. They are an invisible toxin that is permeating my walls, ceiling and windows and my yard, that I no longer enjoy being in since the buzzing in my head is worse outside. At 75 I have to find a new home.

I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure. I am responding from the perspective of a parent, advocate and concerned member of the public. I have followed the implementation of wireless technology and the discussions around that for decades. I'm convinced that wireless radiation can be, and often is, harmful to various life forms. Please STOP expanding wireless networks. I support HHS taking an active role in examining the potential health and environmental effects of wireless radiation. Questions about human health should be addressed by federal agencies with appropriate expertise in medicine, biology, epidemiology, and public health, and the experiences of individuals and families who report being affected should be considered alongside the scientific evidence. I urge HHS to carefully evaluate these experiences and the scientific evidence, identify gaps in current research, give particular attention to children and other potentially vulnerable populations, and establish appropriate federal research priorities regarding wireless radiation and public health. Thank you for providing individuals and families with an opportunity to be heard.

I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure. I am responding from the perspective of a concerned member of the public. Though I am one of the fortunate ones who is not electromagnetic sensitive, I advocted in front of the Loveland, CO, city council on behalf of residents of the "Artspace" building on 5th St. in downtown Loveland, who suffered and are still suffering greatly from the effects of a 5G base station placed on the roof of their building. People in the building got extremely sick and a number of them moved out. A woman right below the tower, developed cancer. Pets died. Neither the city, nor the building owner, refused to do anything about it. Fortunately, the ones who moved out recovered. Since it is a low-income building, many just did or do not have the means to move out and remain there suffering. Wireless radiation, especially 5G, does not align with the natural electromagnetic rate of the human body, therefore is just plain dangerous. I have taken a stand against this technology and gave up my cellphone in 2020. Unfortunately, the world we live in is built on wireless technology to a good extent right now, so we need the support of HHS and the FCC desperately. I support HHS taking an active role in examining the potential health and environmental effects of wireless radiation.

I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure. I am responding from the perspective of a concerned member of the public. Wireless radiation has affected me personally. When exposed to WiFi, wireless routers, modems, cell phones and Bluetooth I have often felt ill…including headaches, nausea and fatigue. I believe that there are many other people who are affected but don’t know that EMFs are causing their symptoms. I support HHS taking an active role in examining the potential health and environmental effects of wireless radiation. Questions about human health should be addressed by federal agencies with appropriate expertise in medicine, biology, epidemiology, and public health, and the experiences of individuals and families who report being affected should be considered alongside the scientific evidence.

I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure. I am responding from the perspective of a patient and parent. There's evidence and regulations in Europe about EMF thus is paramount to start amending the causes and effects over humans health and general natural environment.

Radiation gives me headaches

I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure. I am responding from the perspective of a patient. Wireless radiation gives me headaches. Too much radiation within a building, such as from many people gathered, all of whom are carrying cell phones, will give me a headache. Going too close to certain cell towers gives me a headache. Sometimes the headache lasts all day. Sometimes the headache is relieved by the practice of grounding, putting my bare feet on the earth or on concrete. If I don't encounter radiation, I don't commonly get any headaches. It is hard for me to go into big cities, as it is hard to avoid cell towers there. I support HHS taking an active role in examining the potential health and environmental effects of wireless radiation. Questions about human health should be addressed by federal agencies with appropriate expertise in medicine, biology, epidemiology, and public health, and the experiences of individuals and families who report being affected should be considered alongside the scientific evidence. I urge HHS to carefully evaluate these experiences and the scientific evidence, identify gaps in current research, give particular attention to children and other potentially vulnerable populations, and establish appropriate federal research priorities regarding wireless radiation and public health. Thank you for providing individuals and families with an opportunity to be heard.

i am writing in regards to my own complaint and concern about wireless radiation. I experience intermittent pain in my wrist and hand while holding and using my cell phone. I have owned multiple different cell phone and used different carriers and this has been an ongoing problem for over ten years. This is clearly abnormal and I do not feel good about using an object that causes pain, however I feel I have been pushed, along with our entire society, into using technology that I do not believe is safe or beneficial to human biology. I would really be happy if an honest study and report by the HHS would be done on the effects of EMF, Radiofrequency Radiation and Wireless Radiation on human life. I feel that human life needs to be protected from damaging technologies. I believe that phone and cell tower industries are more interested in monetary profit than the effects of the technologies on human life, especially babies, pregnant mothers and children. May the HHS please place people over profits.
