I am an individual, a family care provider, and a small business owner. I have witnessed numerous side effects pertaining to EMF exposure in myself and my family members, as well as customers who have patronized my business. The EMF exposure has grown exponentially over the last 30 years. Our bodies can only take so much before they begin showing signs. The USA has not done enough to keep up with the standards or the limits of exposure. Other first world countries have surpassed us with their updated thresholds for EMF. We have clearly reached a point where there is just too much exposure. Headaches, nausea, dizziness, and neurological issues are all reported due to the giant microwave we are all forced to live in. Why are we putting up more and more towers? Why are we lowering the panels to be closer to the humans and animals? Why is there a lack of transparency? There have been documented cases where "experts" have said there is tech within these panels that they are not at liberty to discuss. Why is that? Not like the 5G service is any better; in fact, many would say our services have dropped off with these newer technologies. Makes you wonder what's really going on... You all have a tremendous amount of work to do on this. Especially, in regards to improving the trust level with your citizens.

Bonjour sur quelle base scientifique et médicale , les antennes 5g ont été autorisés , alors qu elles représentent un grave problème de santé ? Dans quel but ? Y a t il eu des test de santé publique en amont de l installation de ces antennes 5g et de leurs conséquences ?

I have worked in the construction industry for almost my entire 30 plus year career. Ever since becoming a Dad I have taken a natural interest in the impact of the environment on our health. In the last 5 years I have studied the impact of all forms of EMF (electric fields, magnetic fields, RF and wireless, indoor lighting, and Dirty Electricity) on our health. It is critical that we take a precautionary approach now with all forms of EMF and that we pay attention to the independent science and studies that we already have available that were not biased by industry. We also should support more independent studies. Please begin educating the public about the concerns. Also, my wife and I have experienced symptoms when in close proximity to wireless, cell phones, and electrical fields. These fields have impacted our nervous system, trigger headaches, impact our sleep, and there have been times when it seems they disrupted our digestion. I have purchased professional grade meters and I recently completed studies and certification with the Building Biology Institute. This has enabled me to measure the fields in our typical home, community, work, and while traveling and we have been able to correlate the higher fields to negative symptoms. I have also observed negative changes in behavior of people I live and work with when they are exposed to these fields. Thank you for taking the important step to receive comments and take steps to help mankind be healthier physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. Let's look to nature as our guide as to what is healthy.

These towers are totally and regulated and they are showing up in the middle of towns, as well as in homeowners back yards- I would appreciate knowing the level of risk to those directly exposed, This should have been assessed long before now!

I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure, especially through electric companies' smart meters. I am responding from the perspective of a healthcare professional and a concerned member of the public. In my acupuncture practice I saw several people who were sensitive to EMFs and wireless radiation. It is easy for people to write them off as a little crazy, or at least oversensitive, but I saw people have dramatic effects with increased exposures, and then saw their symptoms subside when they were able to reduce EMFs and wireless radiation in their environment. I personally am lucky enough not to have severe symptoms, but it is difficult to have so little control over my environment, especially when my electric company puts a wireless meter on the entry of my home without my consent. As someone with a history of dementia in my family, I do everything I can to control my exposures to anything which may be a neurotoxin. I feel we need to take this issue very seriously. 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 and possible victim. Living in an apartment complex, I am exposed to as many as 20 known EMF sources, coming from nearby wirless routers.The result is constant tinnitus whenever located at home; the Tinntus goes away as soon as I leave the premises. HHS should take an active role in examining the potential health and environmental effects of wireless radiation.

Ever since i was a teenager I was receiving these sharp painful "zaps" to primarily my L side chest (w/ heart palpatation) This led to a chronic painful condition. This was never diagnosed-wasn't until Havana Syndrome and discussions on DEW's -Direct Energy Weapons. This is now over 40 years of thise painful condition. I have written many politition and the Havana Syndrom taskforce. Also have many books on the Havana Synd. Targeted Ind- ividual program. It's still not officially "Diagnosed" When I saw the White House BioEthics committee in 2011 & 12 Civilians complaining about the same symptoms as I Had. (Even after seeing the White House videos on Bioethics of Civilians admitted going thru the same symptoms as the u.s. diplomats with Havana Syndrome. ( Those videos were made a few years before Havana Symptoms in Havana Cuba even happened-those people were calling themselves Targeted Individuals, people who believe they were/are being experimented on with new techno;ogy (very much like MK-Ultra had before) to Now brain chip technology.Before it was on the news I have written a few times the OHRP-office of Human Reseach Protection. wanting to talk about those electric "zaps" tinnitis (ringing in ears). I have prayed hoped that this-and to help us victims of elecromagnetic radiations/shielding copper mesh, tin foil etc. hopeful for a cure. President Clinton apologized for this intentional radiation in 1995 (even children-oatmeal radiation) In me for 40 yrs is a subcutaneous (just under skin) foreign feeling numbness (painful) blocks emotional feeling, with broken capilaries on the outide half circle of it. Much like the Cuban diplomats, this AHI (Havana Syndromr) technology whether strips their emotional sense of self and depletes yr motivation because a subcutaneous electric biosensor (?) seems to block the normal emotions used or daily motivation- These identical concerns were also voiced in the White House 2011 &12 BioEthics. I went to a Havana Syndrome Rally in Portland, Oregon and all the follow up News reports-I'm glad to finally have answers and also the Patents to the technology. Thank you for looking into Wireless Radiation and the dangers of experimentation on the Brain and Body. I know I had no Idea of what caused any of this, I went to pain specialists in Salem. I never heard of Dew's. I finaly, after 4 visits was told I was part of a Federal program, so they couldn't do anything (and another said the same 5 months later.-couldn't do much it was a federal program ) This was after 30 years that the Havana Syndrome rally, books on experimented "target- ed Individuals (patents to technology) All I know is I was never asked, or informed, I know I never want to be part of any research project, or a "scape-goat' for emerging technologies or nano technology. Again, no Brain mapping, mind reading, I don't want anyone-anyone to use anything OR make copies of anything mine to use now or in the future, no companies, governments, or militaries- I certainly do not want anypart of me or copies of me to be a slave to any one or any ones technology. I don't want remote monitoring, Brain or nervous system manipulation of any kind- that definitely includes A.I-no artificial inteligence to be used on or in me or copies of me. (Im sorry to even have to write all this- but knowing from what I go through and our governments history of experimentation-Oatmeal radiation MK- Ultra etc. I feel I have to be direct and so NO in every way). Again HHS Thank you for RFK Jr and team for asking what we go through. we want this radiation technology to stop- Sincerely me Allen

Our family has health issues which have been identified by various health care providers as possibly related to EMF radiation.

1. & 2. I am responding as: 3a. Type of wireless or RF/EMF sources involved (e.g., mobile phones, Wi-Fi, smart meters…)All wireless devices, especially Wi-Fi 3b. Nature, duration, frequency, and approximate timing (e.g., years):over 15 years 3c. Adverse health effect(s) experienced:Tinnitus, headaches, chronic fatigue, and occasional dizziness. 3d. Time from first exposure to first appearance of adverse health effects; and did a change in exposure coincide with the onset of adverse effects:Symptoms manifest almost immediately. The duration of these health effects has been increasing with time - it can take as long as 24 hours for them to fade away after exposure. 3e. Was medical evaluation or treatment sought? (Optionally:) Was there a diagnosis?I was officially diagnosed EMF-sensitive about 5 years ago by Pr. Dominique Belpomme in Paris. 3f. Were steps taken to reduce or eliminate exposure, and were there subsequent changes in the effects?I have scheduled mercury-fillings removal shortly. Various dietary supplements have become part of my daily routine. Some seem to improve my condition a bit. However, it really seems the only cure is to STAY AWAY FROM ALL WIRELESS DEVICES, in other words to stay at home. 3g. Any supporting documentation? This includes Scientific Reports, exposure measurements, or other relevant information:When I was first diagnosed, my histamine level appeared to be especially high. Additional Details you would like to share about your experiences of adverse health effects you believe to be associated with exposure to wireless radiation or EMF's:Concentration problems definitely seem to be another adverse health effect. This is something I do not normally suffer from - I am a pretty focused person. B1a. Sources you experience as causing you Adverse Effects:Mobile phones, connected watches and car keys, chordless landline phones, Wi-Fi, smart meters... B1b. Sources you can sense, but don't seem to harm you: B1c. Sources you can use without sensing or being harmed:Working on a wired computer. B1d. Sources that seem to provide benefit (i.e., electrotherapy):Nature B2a. Health conditions you think may contribute to your sensitivity to EMFs including wireless:Ongoing stress. B2b. Health conditions you don't necessarily associate with your sensitivity to EMFs including wireless, but might be relevant:I wonder if being under Androcur medication for almost 10 years when I was young could have contributed to my EMF-sensitivity. B3. For each subquestion please list up to 5 drugs or therapies or home remedies (if any) B3a. That you recommend, as they helped you tolerate or recover from EMF exposure:Taking glutathion and ginkgo on a daily basis. Blackcurrant in gemmotherapy, although not all year round. Walking/standing barefoot in water - ie lakes. Staying away from highly-populated areas. B3b. That you recommend, but you’re not positive that they help:Taking ImmunAge, Coenzyme Q10, staying away from dairy products and all inflammatory food. Taking vitamins from group B -such as B12. Preferably wearing natural fabric clothes (cotton, wool, etc.). Earthing. B3c. That helped you but you don’t recommend. (e.g., the benefit did not last long or the side effects were too harmful): B3d. Treatments that had no effect: B3e. Treatments that made your sensitivity worse:55-64 B4. What is your age range?55-64 B5. What year did you become aware of your sensitivity to wireless radiation or electromagnetic fields?2010-2011 B6. What country, state, province, or major city were you living in when you first noticed your sensitivity to wireless or electromagnetic fields?Paris, France.

I am submitting this comment as someone concerned about the health effects of wireless radiation as well as the effects on the environment. I have been personally affected by wireless radiation, in the form of burning and debilitating sensations in my hand and arm from holding my cell phone. I have had to limit handling a cell phone, and keep it on a holder or stand or away from my person as often as possible. I also stay as far away from our wireless router as I can in our home. I hope that HHS will use this opportunity to create a comprehensive report on the current medical, biological, and public health knowledge regarding these effects and take action on that. Please consider the experiences of those affected by this radiation as part of what is reviewed to come up with what should be the scientific underpinnings to actual protective standards and action by the federal government.
