ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I've tested the detrimental effects of 5G and wireless tech through Biogeometry for the last 5 years and it's scientifically proven to not be good for human life and all of life. We desperately need more accountability from up top ASAP

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Thank you so much for your attention to this matter. There have been many scientists and studies regarding the harm of wireless frequencies. One harm occurs to the reproductive cells of The human beings in the range of the wireless frequencies. This damage may not be evident until the egg inside the human exposed becomes of age to reproduce themselves. At this point they may find it difficult to be able to have children. So it may take a generation. Another is to the wildlife such as bees etc. There are positive frequencies as well such as the Rife machine which information has been suppressed regarding. But, there are many negatives to wireless frequencies. I have known many people wearing earbuds for extended periods of time that have a white patch of hair behind their ear. It's killing the cells. It's right beside their brain. Something definitely needs to be done. I pray you'll be successful.

Children absorb more MWR than adults because their brain tissues are more absorbent, their skulls are thinner and their relative size is smaller. MWR from wireless devices has been declared a possible human carcinogen. Children are at greater risk than adults when exposed to any carcinogen. Because the average latency time between first exposure and diagnosis of a tumor can be decades, tumors induced in children may not be diagnosed until well into adulthood. The fetus is particularly vulnerable to MWR. MWR exposure can result in degeneration of the protective myelin sheath that surrounds brain neurons. MWR-emitting toys are being sold for use by young infants and toddlers. Digital dementia has been reported in school age children. A case study has shown when cellphones are placed in teenage girls’ bras multiple primary breast cancer develop beneath where the phones are placed. MWR exposure limits have remained unchanged for 19 years. All manufacturers of smartphones have warnings which describe the minimum distance at which phone must be kept away from users in order to not exceed the present legal limits for exposure to MWR. The exposure limit for laptop computers and tablets is set when devices are tested 20 cm away from the body. Belgium, France, India and other technologically sophisticated governments are passing laws and/or issuing warnings about children’s use of wireless devices."

The commenter reports migraines and anxiety-like sensations around LEDs, Bluetooth devices, vehicles and …

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I get migraines when LED lights are too bright, when using AirPods or other Bluetooth devices, or even in cars that have too many electric components. This only began 3-4 years ago and I was never sensitive prior to this. I feel that the EMF and RF exposure had increased as I truly feel a wave of energy come over my body and the feeling triggers an anxiety like feeling that ceases immediately once I exit the room or shut off the device. I think we are being exposed to too many waves that are affecting health. This also happens with 5G and even when I’m in a room directly below solar panels. I know I’m not the only one who feels like this as most migraine sufferers are sensitive to LEDs and some Bluetooth. I ask that you please force vehicle manufacturers to reduce RF and EMF in cars, and bring back incandescent light bulbs! Im in NY and they’re extremely rare to find, so please make them more widespread. Please also make all the different hardware needed for incandescents jut as available as the LED light hardware. I’m happy with the current HHS and delighted to see new restrictions. I don’t like government regulation but please heavily restrict high wifi, RF and EMF technology. It’s affecting the lives of thousands (remember when Bluetooth ear pieces were said to cause cancer?).

The commenter reports recurring wrist, hand and arm pain while using a smartwatch and connected ring, and…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
It all started with my Apple Watch at first it was a dull pain in my wrist that would only happen every once in a while. Then the pain would start every time with in 30 minutes of wear it then the pain would go up my whole arm. I would take the watch off and within an hour the pain was gone. So I ended up stop wearing it, my husband thought I was crazy until it started happening to him about a year later. I then tried an Oura ring and the pain started in my finger then it would go up to my hand and wrist then my whole arm. I would even turn it on airplane mode so it wouldn’t be sending and receiving information to and from my phone and it still was happening so I had to stop wearing it. I stopped wearing all wearable tech because of the emf pain I was feeling.

The Safer Buildings Coalition emphasizes indoor wireless coverage for emergency communication, warns that…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
COMMENTS OF THE SAFER BUILDINGS COALITION EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Safer Buildings Coalition (“SBC”) is a cross-sector membership organization of public safety agencies, industry organizations, and the owners and operators of buildings where in-building coverage is required. SBC does not offer scientific conclusions on the biological effects of radiofrequency (“RF”) energy and defers on those questions to the expert agencies and standards bodies responsible for them. SBC’s comments address the public safety benefits and costs that any complete assessment of RF exposure policy must weigh. In-building wireless coverage is a cornerstone of emergency communications. Americans spend about 90 percent of their time indoors, and about 80 percent of 911 calls are placed from wireless devices. Cellular coverage allows building occupants to reach 911, and public safety radio coverage allows first responders to communicate once they are inside. The International Fire Code (“IFC”) and the National Fire Protection Association’s (“NFPA”) NFPA 1225 require building owners to provide and maintain minimum levels of public safety radio coverage. That coverage depends on wireless infrastructure engineered to existing federal standards. Distributed antenna systems (“DAS”), Emergency Responder Communications Enhancement Systems (“ERCES”), indoor small cells, signal boosters, and Wi-Fi are required to comply with Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) rules, including the FCC’s RF exposure requirements. More than 830,000 indoor small cell and DAS nodes are in service nationwide, and in-building systems typically cost $1 to $5 or more per square foot. Changes to RF exposure limits could force costly redesign and reduce coverage. Lower permissible antenna power, minimum distances between antennas and occupants, or setbacks from homes, schools, and healthcare facilities would require disproportionately more antennas, could render existing systems incompatible with new limits, and could place building owners in conflict with fire-code signal requirements. Redesign or replacement of only 10 percent of existing indoor nodes would cost an estimated $820 million, before counting Wi-Fi networks, public safety ERCES, equipment removal, and recertification. Policy focus should be directed at eliminating in-building dead zones. Federal law already requires the FCC to measure and map broadband availability, but no comparable data exists for coverage inside buildings. Publishing in-building coverage data would inform policymakers, allow building owners to make informed investment decisions, and let market forces drive private investment to close the in-building coverage gap. SBC recommends that the Department of Health and Human Services (“Department” or “HHS”) base any conclusions on robust, peer-reviewed scientific evidence; evaluate the consequences for public safety communications before recommending any change to exposure limits, siting restrictions, or setbacks; preserve regulatory certainty and coordinate with the FCC in its parallel proceeding; and support the collection and publication of in-building wireless coverage data.

The commenter reports nausea and headache while visiting subsidized housing near smart meters, with relie…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Hello, I wanted to share my experience recently visiting a friend who was in a rent stabilized townhouse, and was on the end unit where all of the smart meters for her building were attached to the outer wall. Upon entering her home, I immediately started feeling nauseous, as well as had a headache, all of which persisted the entire time I was there. In addition, even when we played outside briefly in the side yard, these symptoms were still present. Only once we left the home and I returned to my home that did not have a smart meter, did my symptoms subside. My friend generally keeps her home low tox, without fragrances or other things that could trigger these symptoms, so it was a pretty profound experience as this was the only thing that was drastically different. I think it’s important to note that this was state subsidized housing, and could be putting those in need of lower rent homes at more risk with the concentrated design of the smart meters placement. Thank you for allowing me to share my comments.

The commenter describes progressive symptoms near an office cell tower, leaving work, and efforts to redu…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
1. & 2. I am responding as: individual 3a. Type of wireless or RF/EMF sources involved (e.g., mobile phones, Wi-Fi, smart meters…)close cell phone tower 3b. Nature, duration, frequency, and approximate timing (e.g., years):I did not pay attention at the time the cell phone tower was installed. I never paid attention to them much. In April of 2019, I started feeling, not myself at work, and then an avalanche of symptoms occurred over a year. This tower is located very near my office. Work hours 8:00 am to 7:00 pm, Monday through Friday, Saturdays 8:00-12:00. 3c. Adverse health effects experienced: overheating=felt like being cooked, excessive sweating. Then I experienced headaches, increasing in frequency and severity, tinnitus, inability to sleep, body pain, memory issues, GI problems, fatigue, hair loss. Then heart palpitations, swollen ankles, bleeding gums, excessive bruising & dizziness. It feels like being poked all over my body & with pressure around man made emf. 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. We did not know for sure what was causing the symptoms until after a staycation at home. This was before they upgraded the tower by my home. My symptoms had improved, and after the 4th night I could sleep. It had to be the newer cell tower by work. I tried to shield, wired up, and had a no wireless devices policy at work & home. Over time you keep getting exposures from people around you who forget to shut off their devices, the cell tower, smart meters that forget to shut off their devices. The reduction in exposure was not enough at work, too much EMF everywhere. I progressively got worse to where I was forced to give up my work and live in my basement, I could not even tolerate going up to my main floor in my house. I could not tolerate anything. 3e. Was medical evaluation or treatment sought? No, I live in my basement where I could eventually function and was able to sleep and heal. The world outside, doctor's offices, hospitals are full of wireless devices and have cell towers by them and on them. 3f. Were steps taken to reduce or eliminate exposure, and were there subsequent changes in the effects? Yes as stated above. Work= shielding, stopped using the front half of my office building closer to tower. Shielded walls closest to the tower. Wore shielded clothing, had patients not bring wireless devices. We stopped using wireless devices. We purchased an emf detector to scout out all emitting devices ( TV, Modem, printer, remotes, etc.) We paid for a building biologist to evaluate our home for safety. Removed smart meter off home,& painted the cell tower facing wall of our home with shielding paint. This gave me safer areas to be but the EMF was not low enough & my symptoms got worse to where I had to give up work & move into my basement at home where I still live today. 3g. Any supporting documentation? This includes Scientific Reports, exposure measurements: We do from our building biologist who is an electrical engineer too. His equipment was hard for us to understand, but we do have copies of his scans of our home. He did say that our home was one of the worst residences he had ever tested at this point and recommended us to move. I was not able to work at this point so we did not have him test the clinic. 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: B1a. Sources you experience as causing you Adverse Effects: cell towers, cell phones, smart devices, WIFI, smart meter, B1b. Sources you can sense, but don't seem to harm you: none B1c. Sources you can use without sensing or being harmed: none B1d. Sources that seem to provide benefit: none B2a.
