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. My family and I moved into an old home with old wiring in close proximity to powerlines two years ago. Upon moving in we immediately began experiencing symptoms like extreme fatigue, trouble sleeping, joint pain, brain fog, iron regulation and hormonal issues. I also developed skin cancer one year in to living there. After doing extensive research and testing, we realize that we had high levels of EMFs in our house due to the old wiring and proximity to the powerlines. It has been devastating on our health and we eventually had to move. I support HHS taking an active role in examining the potential health and environmental effects of EMFs, RFs and 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. More research needs to be done in this area. It’s very difficult finding experts and practitioners who know how to help people experiencing symptoms from EMFs, RFs and wireless radiation. It’s frustrating and we are still looking for answers about how to heal from this. There is no doubt these frequencies are causing harm to our biology, and most people are completely unaware of it. 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 EMFs, RFs and wireless radiation and public health. Thank you for providing individuals and families with an opportunity to be heard.

There is a teapot too small to be seen by telescopes orbiting our sun somewhere between Earth and Mars. Prove me wrong.

I am a telecommunication engineering graduate and my comments are to be considered as an independent individual contributor. I experience ear buzzing, headaches and sometimes skin itch in the presence of EMF equipment such as WiFi routers and mobile phone base stations. To create exposure standards and risk assessment (questions 5. o. and 5.p) methods, several aspects need to be considered: - EMF intensity, variety and duration of exposure; - realistic testing use cases: a SAR measured in a lab might be different from an effective SAR of a phone placing a call from a driving car for example; - environmental base levels of EMF radiations: being in an urban, EMF rich environment after a week of camping is completely different than being in such environment contantly; - mental well being and psychological consequences related to the constant exposure to EMF and associated technologies; phenomena such as "fear of missing out", "feeling overwhelmed by work all the time"... - Federal research priorities (Q16): - how do EMF impact the bioenergetic field of the human body of sick and healthy patients; - what are effective and efficient shielding strategies for sensitive buildings and individuals; e.g. clothing, paints, Faraday cages - the right to be offline and the right to slow down technological use;

I am reporting victimization involving electromagnetic waves. I have been subjected to torture for over five years. Please help me as soon as possible. Hello. I am a Japanese woman reporting on the harm I have suffered involving electromagnetic waves. Please help me escape this illegal torture. Since 2021—over five years ago—I have been subjected to assaults on my brain via electromagnetic waves. (This began a few months after I reported a hacking incident to the government.) I know for certain that I am a victim because I am subjected to torture involving AI voices—known as "Voice to Skull" (V2K)—speaking inside my brain all day long; this is a phenomenon that cannot occur naturally. This constitutes clear torture, but because the voices cannot be heard by others, I am seriously misdiagnosed as having schizophrenia. This is the nature of the directed-energy weaponry used: it deliberately causes such misunderstandings. I have experienced the hacking of my entire body. My visual memory has been crushed into pitch-black darkness, robbing me of the human joy of imagination. The perpetrators do not simply kill a billion people at once; instead, they torture victims, strip them of their lives, and slowly isolate them. I want to prove the truth to my family, friends, and acquaintances, so please release information confirming that these brain-control weapons actually exist. Please acknowledge me as a victim.misunderstand my condition, so please reveal the truth. Brain-control weapons are instruments of human rights violations that cause people who have lived normal lives to be misdiagnosed with schizophrenia. I do not believe I am the only victim of this weaponry. Please urgently help me and all other victims in Japan, the United States, China, and across the globe. Please negotiate with the nation responsible for these crimes and set us free. The torture inflicted on my brain is agonizing. Thank you for your assistance.

I first learned about EMFs after moving into an apartment building, where I shortly developed symptoms I never had before including disruption of sleep, heart palpitations and tinnitus. My daughter mentioned EMFs as a likely cause to me which opened up Pandora's box. I have since learned of the hidden dangers. I am including a link to an article published in the medical literature (PubMed) written by a recognized expert, Martin Pall, discussing further the hazards https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26300312/. Many are subject to these fields and the dangers that they present unknowingly, including children and adults who work in schools for example. I frequently see cell towers on school property. Public awareness and protection need to be increased

Please stop the targeted individuals program where harmless Americans are being tortured by electronic weapons for data. Please at least bring awareness to it.

I would like it studied more. I would like to feel protected. I would like the health of my family to be put above profit by my government.

Absolutely horrible for our health and well-being and we’re sick of feeling sick and not being able to get restorative sleep!

I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure. My family has been living an ultra healthy life for decades. We grow our own food & were enjoying ultimate health. Highly active, we have a rural property we loved working. The entire family made an activity out of growing & preserving our own healthy foods. We have lived near a tiny cell tower since around 1990. On a hill, it was below us. We had little effect noticed. The family was full of energy and activity. After upgrades started about 12 years ago or so, we began to notice headaches, stiffness, sleeplessness, and tension that would not go away. Our animals began to die suddenly with tumors. One by one we were losing our healthy pets. After struggling to walk, I began to try to increase my exercise time to keep fit. Not much was available on how to counteract the effects we were feeling, but nothing that always worked for symptoms were touching this. We found a form of remediation and suddenly I was able to walk again without a cane. I felt strong. The kids were having less headaches. My husband was not as stiff. Literally a month later the hell began. I am unsure of the exact year, but flatbeds showed up. They built the tower up to a hellish monstrosity. Now the tower was even with our doorway in our home up the hill about a half mile away. Due to the incline it was closer to our house. Within several months I completely lost the ability to walk without canes. Exercise makes it worse. Blinding headaches, vision impairment, severe excruciating pain, and inability to sleep or even rest without severe agitation began. It affected me most because I was home the most. Everyone else was waking up in a fetal position, having debilitating headaches/issues. Within 7 months our neighbor who never had neurological issues was dead of neurological issues. Every so many months as we tried to counteract to stay comfortable, upgrades continued. A woman next to the tower has to get spinal injections the pain is so severe. Her husband had cancer several times since staying home after lockdowns as have other neighbors. You can not imagine the excruciating torture from these towers. The health we worked so hard to maintain is in jeopardy from this nightmare. One note- lightning struck around the tower and it went off at one point for most of a night and morning. All of the symptoms completely stopped. I slept, no pain, the relaxing feeling I had enjoyed in my life was back. It was wonderful to feel normal again. As soon as the tower went back on, the pain shot through me so severely I screamed. Our remaining few pets have also been tortured by this. We lost many birds, butterflies, & bees as well. We have had to put out all of our savings to try to counteract this as much as possible, but nothing stops the overall effects from progression. Not only has this affected our family, but I lost two close friends with towers like this one near their homes directly due to towers (I won't go into how I know but it is definite) as their bodies began collapsing and they died when their bodies gave out. That hurt me too. Once they added smart meters in our area (which are data chains with wireless signals that go through property) a year ago, more pets & people we know within miles of our home are having complete neurological collapses. I am talking about blacking out & waking up unable to use arms or legs. Interestingly, it often happens to multiple people at the exact same moments. All of our respite areas within 100 mi are now as bad or worse than our home area due to excessive towers & wind farms (which are worse due to signals used penetrating rock & water as per Dr Lee Merritt). Area Mennonites are now starting to have problems & very few of them have more than occasional cell phone hidden in the barn or on shelf. We have worked hard to stay alive. What is happening to us is horrific. You have no idea what this torture is like. We are doing what we can but need this to be reformatted into SAFE ways of setting up the networks above not directly affecting us. Exercise makes it worse- imagine exercising during being tasered and that gives you an idea of what it is like. Someone - a close relative- with no health problems was thrown from her chair & temporary quadriplegic for a short period of time. I am hearing this from more and more people. If we did not have remediation in place, we would probably be dead. I have lost over 5 years of my life able to do very little. My husband is overwhelmed, and now is struggling to function. He has his own business and can not afford to not work. Day after day we pray for help because we want to live & walk & move again!!! I cry constantly because I envy people who can walk & I can't because of selfish tech. Thank you for listening.
