Me myself notice hadache bad sleep, restlessnes, als the children after a days school in wifi all day have hadaches and are restless and don't sleep well

I dont sleep with the EMF for 4 apartments on the outside of my bedroom wall until i put Orgone pyramid there inside. I wear orgone pendant to harmonize emf to my body. I want all schools and hospitals to use Grounded , hard wiring ways for All computers and for kids ages 5- 18 to be off computers in school!!! And No cell phone towers within 3 miles of schools.,hospitals.

Children's schools should not be located near mobile phone towers or TV towers or electrical transmission power lines. And the powerful Wi-Fi routers often used in schools should not be near any children's desks. California officially issued guidelines advising of mobile phone dangers, warning of increased risk of brain cancer and other health problems, and that children’s developing brains could be at greater risk. The biggest source of RF exposure for most people is using a mobile phone next to the head. You can reduce RF exposure a lot by using the phone's speaker and holding the phone farther away from your head, or using wired headphones say neuro-oncologists & public heath experts. The city council in Berkeley California passed a law that requires retailers to tell consumers how far away their phone should be held. The European Union recommends wired Internet rather than wireless in schools. France also banned WiFi routers in nursery and daycare centers, and restricted elementary school WiFi to only when in use for education. The American Academy of Environmental Medicine (AAEM) states in an open letter to school superintendents, “There is a consistent, emerging science that shows people, especially children who are more vulnerable due to developing brains and thinner skulls, are being affected by the increasing exposure to wireless radiation.” In 2021 a New Hampshire report outlined health risks of cell phone towers in residential neighborhoods. Scientific American reported a study of mobile phone exposure and cancer in rats: www.scientificamerican.com/article/major-cell-phone-radiation-study-reignites-cancer-questions/ According to Dr. Joel Moskowitz (UC/Berkeley), "The study's results reinforce the need for more stringent regulation of radiofrequency radiation and better disclosure of the health risks associated with wireless technologies." Dr. Martha Herbert, a Harvard Pediatrician, wrote in this letter to Montgomery County Schools "there are thousands of papers...that document adverse health and neurological impacts of EMF/RFR"..."Radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation from wifi and cell towers can exert a disorganizing effect on the ability to learn and remember, and can also be destabilizing to immune and metabolic function"..."Powerful industrial entities have a vested interest in leading the public to believe that EMF/RFR, which we cannot see, taste or touch, is harmless, but this is not true". The American Academy of Pediatrics in 2013 requested a review of EMF radiation emissions from technology devices, citing impact on children. Some schools have reduced WiFi exposure of children: https://ehtrust.org/tag/wifi-in-schools/ https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/school-wifi-networks-could-put-12602188 In 2011 the World Health Organization classified cell phones (and other wireless devices) as a possible carcinogen due to RF emissions. In 2013 Dr. Anthony Miller from University of Toronto School of Public Health recommended that based on new research, radio frequency (RF) exposure should be reclassified as a probable carcinogen. Regarding power lines: Researchers have found health effects, including a doubling of leukemia rates associated with living in AC magnetic field strengths greater than 4.0 mG. www.emfs.info/health/leukaemia/ www.powerwatch.org.uk/elf/overview.asp www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10944614 www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20877339 www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11055621 The Swedish National Energy Department issued an advisory warning that schools, playgrounds, and day-care centers should not be sited near power lines, and that children should not be subjected for long periods every day to AC magnetic fields over 3.0 mG.

Since its founding in 2007, Environmental Health Trust and numerous experts and expert groups have repeatedly advised governments, through docket filings and briefings of Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and other officials, that science-based policy updates are urgently needed to reduce microwave-radiation exposure, especially for young children and the environment. According to Common Sense Media, forty percent of U.S. two-year-olds own some form of two-way microwave-radiating tablet. Outdated 20th century approaches such as those relied on by ICNIRP cannot provide valid means for evaluating fast-moving 21st century technologies. At the same time, the recent issuance of separate requests for information by both HHS and the FCC highlights the lack of a coherent federal policy framework. It also reflects the ongoing tension between the Department of Commerce's technology leadership, which is tasked with accelerating wireless deployment, and HHS and FDA officials, who are responsible for evaluating the evidence, supporting research on potential health risks, and advising the FCC on appropriate regulatory policies. Microwave-radiating devices can provide social, safety, and economic benefits, but their risks have not been adequately considered in standards governing manufacture, testing, use, surveillance, and disposal. Consequently, billions experience repeated, avoidable RF radiation through lifetime use of simultaneously operating phones, tablets, personal monitors, and other two-way microwave-radiating devices, increasing risks of chronic illnesses documented over five decades, much of the research conducted outside the U.S. We therefore welcome the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and FCC Request for Information (RFI) on health and environmental impacts. This compendium of selected recent studies (2020-26) on the impact of microwave radiation on human health and the environment completed since the U.S. Circuit Court for the District of Columbia ruled in Environmental Health Trust et al. v. FCC, 2021, in response to queries within the RFI from HHS. In response to question 5, we note that current standards for cell phones and other two-way microwave-emitting devices are based largely on studies conducted to avoid heating a small number of rats and mice more than 30 years ago. These outdated standards primarily seek to prevent thermal (heating) effects in the body of a tall adult male and do not reflect exposure patterns experienced by billions of children and smaller-bodied individuals worldwide. They also do not account for the substantial body of research showing adverse effects of microwave radiation on plants, insects, birds, migratory species, mammals, and the ecosystems on which life depends. Phonegate Alert contends that current phone radiation tests, like diesel-engine tests, are fraudulent. We concur. As a result of these efforts, the European Union recently changed its test protocol to 0mm distance from the body. We advise that more stringent exposure limits in high tech nations is evidence per se of the need to update 3-decade old U.S. standards.

Public Comment on EMF, RF Radiation, and Wireless Technology
Docket No. HHS-OASH-2026-0397 I am concerned about the rapid expansion of wireless technology and its potential effects on our health, homes, and natural environment. Cell towers, Wi-Fi, smart meters, and wireless devices have become widespread, yet I believe the public needs more independent research, transparency, and meaningful input into decisions affecting our communities. I have personally experienced headaches, nausea, feeling unwell, neck and chest tightness, and ringing in my ears in situations where I believe electromagnetic fields or wireless technology may be relevant. I have noticed discomfort near high-voltage power lines and when using my computer over Wi-Fi. At home, I have noticed a significant difference when using Ethernet with Wi-Fi turned off. I have also noticed significant differences when my phone's Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and hotspot are enabled versus disabled or when it is in airplane mode. My hand can feel hot and tingly when I hold my phone for an extended period. I recognize these observations do not prove that electromagnetic exposure causes my symptoms. Other factors may contribute. However, I believe these experiences deserve consideration and that independent research should investigate the questions they raise. Electromagnetic fields and radio frequency emissions can be measured. I would like greater public access to reliable exposure measurements and clear explanations of safety standards, the evidence behind them, and remaining uncertainties. Research should distinguish between low-frequency fields associated with electrical infrastructure and radio frequency emissions from wireless communications. I am also concerned about how quickly wireless infrastructure has expanded. Cell towers and antennas are appearing on schools, atop small apartment buildings, and on large towers next to homes. These structures change our neighborhoods and natural landscapes. Smart meters and other wireless technologies have also become increasingly common. I do not recall being meaningfully consulted about this expansion or given a clear opportunity to understand the trade-offs. We should ask who is driving this expansion and who benefits financially. What interests and incentives influence the companies and institutions promoting these technologies? Why is there such strong pressure to expand them, often with little public discussion of alternatives or long-term consequences? Are public health and environmental protection receiving the same attention as commercial interests and economic growth? The public deserves transparent, evidence-based answers. I believe we should protect the natural world and carefully consider the visual, environmental, and potential ecological effects of infrastructure. Technology should not automatically be considered beneficial simply because it is newer or more convenient. Wired alternatives deserve consideration, too. Ethernet provides internet access without Wi-Fi transmissions from a local network. Where practical, wired options should be considered. The public should also receive clear information about smart meters, their communication methods, applicable standards, and available alternatives. I respectfully ask HHS to: 1. Support independent research into potential health effects and symptoms reported by people concerned about EMF and RF exposure. 2. Improve access to exposure measurements and clear explanations of safety standards and scientific uncertainties. 3. Examine real-world exposure conditions in homes, schools, workplaces, and communities. 4. Provide information about reducing unnecessary wireless transmissions and using wired alternatives where practical. 5. Investigate potential ecological effects and consider environmental protection when evaluating technology. 6. Promote public participation and transparency about infrastructure decisions and the financial interests involved. 7. Review guidance as credible new scientific evidence becomes available. I am not claiming that my experiences prove a causal relationship between wireless exposure and my symptoms. I am asking that these concerns be investigated fairly. The public deserves reliable information and a meaningful voice in decisions affecting our surroundings. We should be able to evaluate technology critically while protecting health, personal choice, and the natural world. Thank you for considering my comments.

In the spring of 2006 out of nowhere and what seemed like no reason I started having severe vertigo, migraines, slurred speech, chronic fatigue, chronic pain, my whole body felt as though my skin was on fire. I had a 2 yr old son and one morning I went to get out of bed, however when I lifted my head my world shifted onto its side. I felt as though I had been drinking liquor the night before (which I hadn’t been). My head slammed back down I couldn’t even open my eyes to squint without severe vertigo. My husband rushed me to the emergency room which was not easy since I couldn’t open my eyes, my speech was slurred and wearing clothes felt like torture. Once at the hospital they did several tests and ran several scans. The scans all came back normal, however the hand/eye tests they gave me verified that there was definitely a problem. The doctor told me that I had a case of severe vertigo and they didn’t know why so the doc gave me a shot of liquid Valium and almost immediately I was back to normal. He sent me home with a small prescription of Valium and told me to make an appt with my GP. From that day forward my life was a living nightmare. I was unable to take care of myself much less my 2 yr old son with whom I had done the responsible thing with and had waited til I had been married for 7 yrs was 26 yrs old and was financially stable. Sadly the one thing I had longed for, had planned out meticulously in order to be able to raise my son, give him some siblings and my husband more kids was stolen from me. The next 13 yrs would be one disappointment after another where the medical field is concerned. I slept for days on end if severe weather moved in I would sleep starting the day before it moved in until the day after it cleared up. I lived in excruciating pain going from one specialist to the next begging them to help me then after examination and untold numbers of test they would first offer me OxyContin then it would spiral into me and the specialist screaming at each other. Me yelling at them I didn’t want their drugs and them yelling at me it was all in my head. I finally just started screaming “if it’s all in My head then fix my fucking head!” Oh you’re crazy it’s all in your head. There’s nothing wrong with you. You just want attention . Every doctor/specialist I saw I would ask them what is my body missing that I need or what do I have an excess of that my body can’t get rid of? EVERYONE OF THEM from the nurse, to the physical therapist all the way to the PhD’s would look at me as though I was crazy and then say to me word for word, “ what does nutrition have to do with your health?” I was flabbergasted each and every time! I finally accepted their pain meds at the lowest dose possible. I went from someone who had a photographic memory who scored on her ACT‘s in the one percentile to somebody who couldn’t even read I couldn’t focus. I’m almost 50 years old. I don’t remember my 30s and only the last couple of years of my 40s I miss funerals I miss weddings I miss graduations. I wasn’t there till loved ones goodbye or take care of them. I even allowed them to use an experimental contrast dye for an MRI. I was told I might lose my sense of taste and smell I honestly didn’t care. I should had because after that experimental dye, my symptoms grew severely worse. I couldn’t have conversations with people I couldn’t leave my house and my poor son was having to take care of me instead of me being able to take care of him, my husband lost his partner his friend his helpmate, and was burdened with a woman who couldn’t function. I was having seizures. The pain was more severe than ever. I lost years of my life. I have no recollection of which is another very disturbing thing since I had a photographic memory, I could remember from the age of two and up. The years I had looked forward to the most my son’s childhood I absolutely missed. I have no recollection of! I had been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, PTSD, bipolar disorder, severe migraines, chronic fatigue, dissociative personality disorder. I was taking hydrocodone 5 mg, clonazepam 1mg as needed, gabapentin highest dose possible, fluoxetine and cyclobenzaprine.

I support HHS and their efforts to conduct a study on the dangers of EMF radiation to the public. This investigation and/or study is many years past due. Citizens already have been severely harmed by EMF radiation which has been completely ignored. More strict steps and regulations need to be placed in our country to prevent dangerous harm to our children and adults. Thank you taking the time to read this comment!

I've noticed that whenever I'm near a Wi-Fi router, I experience heart palpitations, body aches, a buzzing sensation in my head, and brain fog. Interestingly, when I turn off the Wi-Fi, these symptoms seem to disappear. I've observed this pattern repeatedly, and I'm concerned about what might be causing it. I would appreciate more research and attention being given to experiences like mine.

I am not a robot:) I have observed the increased illness and irritation of family members exposed in their households due to EMF's, wirelss and rf radiation. The behaviors of these young children in these environments (and now their schools) is significantly irritable and "wired" in ways that they cannot get a restful sleep and their attention appears to be diluted. In contrast, outside and away from cell towers, wearables, etc. they return to being more curious, playful and easy going/hospitable. It is a worry that they are intentionally wired from the pleathora of exposures. Please make this a high priority. I fear it has long lasting impacts to health and our society overall. Not to mention the pets, plants and animals. Yes, I have observed different pets have different reactions to exposures... as well.
