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 mother of a young adult who is even more sensitive than I. My symptoms started about 10 years ago. I was constantly tired and getting bad headaches when passing in the vicinity of antennas. I switched off the WIFI at home, switched on my mobile phone as little a possible and soon realised that my health was improving. In the last 10 years, the quantity of EMF that we are submitted to has been multiplied. I can't go to public places anymore (theatres, concerts...) and I can't have a job in a WIFI environment. I am currently a teacher in an exceptional school, where electronic devices are forbidden. My social life has deteriorated as well. The worst is to see my 20 year old boy who is not physically able to attend classes at university : after 30 minutes, he has to go out, pale, with cardiac arrhythmia... Our lives are literally destroyed by EMF. 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. Best regards, C.G.

In the last few years as I am out and about in my area of rural central Pennsylvania, I can’t help but notice “Wi-Fi” towers springing up in the beautiful mountains to the very yards of not so distant neighbors. I happen to know these towers are also known as “Directed Energy Weapons” and that is exactly what I think they are. As they have closed in on my neighborhood I can’t help but notice a regular ringing in my ears and frequent headaches now. A white thick haze of clouds just conveniently always being formed and directed around these towers. Even when my weather app says full sun tbere will be the strangest grid pattern stretching out in a very unnatural manner. I’m sure these towers have nothing to do with that though. I am sick of every where I go I have a huge ugly tower towering over me and my family whether I’m driving out to run errands at the store or going down the road to a post office. They are everywhere and yet I don’t remember consenting to them. Their reach is far and wide and have noticed a dramatic effect on myself especially with the ringing of the ears, brain fog, trouble concentrating, mood swings, headaches, and who knows what else long term. I also do not understand how I have to get permission from a township to add on to my house but Jane doe down the road can agree to allow a “tower” in her yard and I have no right to counter that. By the way do these people know the dangers of being in such proximity to these towers. It seems they do not as I would be absolutely horrified to be subjected to the health risks these towers cause. It seems there is no transparency with these towers and no regulations as they are quite literally everywhere and that to me tells me there are not regulations that are there to protect the people. And no I do not notice better cell reception so i do not buy the Wi-Fi lie. Regulate these monstrosities please. And regulate the distance they need to be from civilians and I do believe the ones that break those regulations should be removed immediately. Thank you.

Bonjour Je témoigne que les ondes non naturelles et même l'électricité "sale" a des effets néfastes voire dangereuses sur l'organisme humain Cela m'a causé de nombreux problèmes de santé (coeur, allergie, articulaires, insomnies notamment certains jours plus que d'habitude,..) Notamment, la 5G peut être plus dangereux que les précédentes antennes. Mon animal de compagnie a perdu la vie en 6 mois après l'installation de 5G dans mon quartier. Moi-même j'ai eu des douleurs au niveau du col du fémur et je suis en carence en vitamines, minéraux, oligo-éléments beaucoup plus rapidement qu'il y a un an ou deux ans malgré la prise des compléments alimentaires. Cela ne part avec aucun médicament ni d'exercice physique. Il faut juste que je quitte mon domicile et partir loin des ondes, mais cela est devenu quasi impossible si on recherche la civilisation surtout en France c'est la folie! Il nous faut juste une aide providentielle, un éveil de conscience très vite...

It’s imperative for us to test and measure the effects of EMFs on our health. I suffer from an immune system threat and want very much to know why. Knowing the why makes all the difference. I’ve seen studies on how EMF waves breed discordance and that parasitic infection feeds off EMF. Knowing specifics will make all the difference for me, autoimmune conditions.

What are the detrimental effects of EMF’s and RF’s on all living things.

We need as much information as possible to help those or live or work and get exposed to EMFs. I hope this topic will be made a priority to improve the health and well being of a lot of US citizens .

My fanily and I moved to a neighborhood in Wylie,TX in July 2013 which was sandwiched between an array of 5 radio towers and a 4G cell phone tower. Within 9 months, it affected my ability to sleep. I developed a systemic fungal infection, muscle spasms, bacterial infections and eventually my immune system shut down. I developed severe food allergies to almost everything. Tinnitus was constant. Hypothyroidism. Several of our neighbors developed cancers of various sorts, autoimmune issues, and many other health-related problems. An unusual amount of cancer/health issues for a small neighborhood.

I would like a copy of the results from this study. This is a huge issue for everyone.

Can we address the effect of power lines getting higher voltage and bigger and bigger? I live on a powerline that was recently re done and is now HUGE. There are times when you can hear the electricity humming. Those of us who live near these lines had no say in them at all. It’s not right that these companies can do this when people live so close.
