Attributes persistent neurological and sensory symptoms to a nearby cellular dish after an unexplained in…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
In March 2019 my wife and I were working in the yard of our home when we both were suddenly hit by an unusual, unexplained forceful blast that we will never forget. The blast hit us straight on and we were nearly knocked down to the ground by it. It took the air and energy right out of us and left us with an intense ringing in our ears that we continue to experience. We did not know what to do and I wondered if we needed to seek shelter, call the fire department, or call 911. It was that shocking, confusing, and intense. We did not know if the whole area was experiencing this event. It ended up changing our lives for the worse. In the days and weeks following we realized that the tinnitus was always present but lessened in intensity whenever we were away from our home. After researching and thoughtful deductions we came to the conclusion that the source of the forceful blast and our numerous symptoms was the cellular dish that had been installed on the city water tower near our home. Since that time, nearly seven years ago, we have experienced tinnitus, severe sleep loss, brain fog, confusion, dizziness, headaches, burning sensations, fatigue, loss of concentration, memory loss, irritability. These symptoms intensify whenever we are in proximity to EMF sources. All the symptoms we live with became so intense and persistent that we sold our home as quickly as we were able, in order to relocate to a safer place. We now rent and worry if we will need to move again. This has been a negative impact on our physical and mental health as well as our financial well being. The cellular companies are not transparent about the health risks and dangers of their structures, equipment, technology and the Electro Magnetic Forces they are using and producing. They continue to ignore the damage they are doing to the public while only concerning themselves with profits.

Alleges organized stalking and electronic warfare involving local actors, while expressing uncertainty ab…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
There're various things with this I could tell ya and so on but I don't have some sheaf of documentation etc because I myself am dealing with organized gangstalking of the worst kind anyhow including the local police as well as neighbors/slumlords etc who want me dead {but're just tryin' to do it quietly}. That bein' said from what I've experienced it seems to be quite-real in many aspects. I can't speak to some veracity of all-of-it-all-the-time but a lot of it at least incl. at least some aspects of the electronic warfare aspect from my life specifically to the best of my ability to perceive it all.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Just this morning and for at least a week every morning, I wake up like someone poured gasoline on my skin and lit it. I am so stiff and sore to move is agonizing. Some recent mornings along with this I have crushing headaches ! My hair has fallen out and my skin is rice paper thin. I told a Dr when asked how long ? About 5-6 years, and I have no clue how to stop this.

Describes close residential tower exposure and a neighbor's pacemaker, and proposes updated standards, de…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Regarding: Request for Information on EMF, RF, and Wireless Radiation Exposure Comment by Dan Feidt, Philadelphia resident. [Question 2 & 3] I am an individual consumer and former resident who experienced chronic, close-range exposure (<25 feet) to cell tower mast hardware on a residential building. This exposure was continuous (24/7), highlighting severe gaps in public safety frameworks. Crucially, another resident in my immediate living environment required a cardiac pacemaker during their residency near this specific transmitter array. This observation necessitates formal tracking to investigate if chronic, close-range residential exposure acts as an environmental stressor or accelerant for cardiac electrical dysfunction, even at levels deemed compliant with outdated standards. [Question 5 & 6: Outdated Exposure Standards] I urge federal health agencies to critically re-evaluate the FCC’s General Population/Uncontrolled Exposure framework (47 CFR § 1.1310). The current Max Permissible Exposure (MPE) limits are structurally deficient: 1. Outdated 1996 Baseline: The framework relies on guidelines adopted in 1996, failing to reflect modern 5G/6G densification, multi-frequency arrays, and multi-family rooftop placements. 2. Thermal Precedent Flaw: The 1996 framework protects only against acute thermal tissue heating over short intervals. It entirely ignores the biological realities of chronic, long-term, non-thermal cumulative exposure. 3. Preemption Gaps: The Telecommunications Act of 1996 blocks local municipalities from restricting placements based on environmental health concerns if they meet FCC limits, leaving residents completely vulnerable with no legal recourse or mandatory safety buffers near living spaces. [Question 7, 8 & 9] - 3D Volumetric Spatial Auditing: Compliance frameworks must evolve past single, static center-of-the-room data points. Testing should require a standardized protocol using an extended pole assembly with a calibrated tri-axial probe to systematically plot electromagnetic energy within every individual cubic meter of residential space to map "exposure hot spots" caused by reflections off internal building materials. - Standardized Inflow Auditing: The government must establish standardized protocols using calibrated, tri-axial isotropic antennas to measure the exact RF energy density and electric field strength entering a private residential unit, cross-referencing this against independent, non-thermal biomedical models. [Question 8 & 9 (Cont.): The "Energy Star" Model & Power Logs] - Transparent Disclosure Labels: Federal health agencies should establish a standardized, consumer-facing labeling framework analogous to the Energy Star metrics for device efficiency. Every residential rooftop mast must feature an accessible public registry placard (and QR link) disclosing maximum transmission intensity, active frequency bands, and licensed directional beamforming pathways. - Weather-Variant Disclosures: Regulators must mandate explicit disclosure of how wireless infrastructure alters its transmission intensity under varying conditions. Providers must declare operational ceilings for Automatic Transmit Power Control (ATPC), as dynamic surges used to compensate for "rain fade" (atmospheric attenuation from rain, snow, or fog) significantly escalate localized exposure compared to baseline clear-weather compliance models. - Mandatory 2-Year Historical Logs: Telecom operators must maintain and provide an accessible, rolling 2-year log detailing the exact power variations, intensity fluctuations, and active frequency bands used by any given mast. This allows residents, epidemiologists, and doctors to retroactively audit and map health changes or cardiac anomalies against real, long-term emission trends. [Question 11 & 12] - Medical Device Interoperability: Current risk evaluation frameworks neglect the spatial density of 5G antennas on residential roofs. The government must modernize safety buffer zones around multi-family residential structures to specifically protect individuals with implanted medical devices (such as pacemakers and defibrillators), ensuring localized fields do not cause unmonitored electromagnetic interference (EMI) over prolonged periods. [Question 17] - Inter-Agency Environmental and Cardiac Cross-Referencing: I urge the HHS to establish a collaborative research pipeline between the FDA, CDC, and FCC to cross-reference localized, time-stamped weather data and documented ATPC transmission surges with localized, anonymous emergency department admissions or remote pacemaker telemetry logs. This targeted research is necessary to determine if sudden, weather-induced spikes in localized RF transmission intensity correlate with acute cardiovascular events or electrical anomalies in implanted cardiac devices among residents living in close proximity to rooftop masts. More details attached in txt file. Thanks for consideration.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
From Copenhagen, Denmark. Right now I don’t feel the radiation but I’m aware of it’s danger. Perhaps it’s just a question of time before my body tilts. I switch off my internet at night and when I don’t use it and I keep my phone in a protective cover and never wears it on my body. Ther are many more ways to protect yourself, but they are very pricy. I have several 5G towers close to were I live and when I look at them I’m thinking of how much radiation they send into my body. Next year I think we are going to have smartmeters installed, but I will do what I can to prevent it.

Raises concerns about cumulative exposure and supports HHS evaluation and research priorities addressing …

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Health effects from wireless radiation are not always obvious, but the cumulative burden could be far greater than we realize. Please help us find out how to minimize the harm. I am glad HHS is 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 investigating this important issue.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I’m very concerned about wireless radiation and all of the radiation from “smart” devices. Even if I hard wire. Y home and turn off what I can in my home there are still multiple WiFi systems from my neighbors affecting us. There needs to be much more oversight and regulation of EMF a push to move to hard wiring and limiting the use of “smart” meters by utility companies.

Reports tinnitus after smart-meter installation and refusal of removal, and requests independent study of…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am an ordinary citizen who has been harmed by EMF radio since 2014 when a smart meter was attached to my house. I suffer from tinnitus because of it and the power company refused to uninstall it. EMF radiation is known to cause this condition. I ask that the harms of EMF radiation be independently studied because I know that it can cause many other health issues.
