Dear Sir/Madam,
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 parent and healthcare professional.
Having read Dr Devra Davis' Book, "Disconnect" over a decade ago, I experimented on wireless radiation and its effects on me and my family (two young boys aged 1 and 4 years young).
The source is our WiFi, which went left on over night seriously affected our circadian rhythms. Our children often woke up sleep walking and sometimes having a nightmare. I often found myself having to go to the toilet once or twice a night, but at my young age of 39 I have no bladder challenges.
The exciting news was, once we turned our WiFi off, no more sleep disturbances and no more bathroom visits!
We also chose to turn our phones off before retiring and found that not staring at a bright screen before bed presented us with an improved sleep pattern.
We personally believe HHS needs to address this issue and as you'll be aware the World Health Organisation regards 'dirty electricity' which includes cells phones and WiFi as a possible carcinogen and we you believe HHS should address this issue.

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.
Yours in health, sincerely

You likely know about the Clinton administration's 1992 Telecommunication Act. Prior to it being passed, telecommunication companies were prohibited from building cell towers within close proximity of schools, hospitals, medical clinics, day care and senior care centers. Why? Because strong Wi Fi (RF radiation) is not healthy. It is radiation. Human bodies perceive it as a foreign body and our immune system responds. Eventually our immune system fatigues and our bodies inflammatory response leads to disfunctions like diabetes and cancers. The passing of the 1992 Telecommunication Act rescinded that protection. How is it we knew to put protections in place, for our most vulnerable populations, and then pretended we did not know? Politics, greed and ignorance. You see the ill effects of strong Wi Fi (RF radiation) in your friends, families and neighbors every day. RF radiation stresses the nervous system, the immune system and eventually erodes good health. The statistics of alarming numbers of what were rare cancers are indisputable. There are volumes of reliable independent research on the damaging effects of RF radiation. If we do not have our good health nothing else matters. You were put in the position to act on behalf of yourself, your family, friends and country in this serious matter. I pray that you have the clarity, courage and wisdom to put reasonable safeguards in place.
Thank you for 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 am fearful of cancer and other possible side effects if these technologies especially with our children's cancers on the rise.
Please stop them all frim killing us with their "technologies"
I beg you to take action to stand up for the health of the public. We are victims of technology that is built next to our homes 5 G 6 G towers… sub stations etc smart meters! Affecting our sleep and our nervous systems. Causing cancer… no one will be spared. Study , regulate and demand protective measures in neighborhoods
I support HHS in taking an active role in investigating the effects of EMFs, Radiofrequency and wireless radiation. I have read many people's stories and have friends who report severe affects such as loss of sleep, depression, anxiety, etc. For most of us, it is difficult to definitevely know how we are affected. As a cancer survivor, I will never know what "caused" the cancer to develop. When i read stories of people living near power lives and cell towers who develop cancer, whole communities who develop cancer, I wonder about my own exposure. I hope you will HHS to hire scientists and doctors and researchers who have no vested interest in the outcome to help develop proper guidelines so we all live healthy and long lives. Thank you.
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. I live under a cell tower and I am home most of the time. I am exposed to radiation constantly. I get frequent headaches and am getting forgetful. It may be normal aging, but I shouldn't be subjected to this all of the time. Cell towers should have no place in residential neighborhoods. Put them along the interstates, away from homes. My mother-in-law lives directly under the cell tower, and she has dementia. The man across the street has cancer. The cell towers need to go.
We used to live rather close to a transformer. Our next-door neighbor actually had it in front of their front yard. We had not been aware of the dangers of EMFs until the 5 year old son of our neighbor's developed a brain tumor and we started reading about the concerns that were being raised about EMF exposure. We should be taking every possible precaution with the use of technology that has red flags all over them.
I believe there is volumes of evidence indicating potential and actual damage from wireless radiation. Our exposure is so astronomically much greater than 30 years ago. Personally, I believe it has caused me tinnitus. A dear friend developed testicular cancer from carrying his cell phone in the front pocket of his work pants. Please acknowledge the existing data and act to protect us.

I am responding from the perspective of a concerned member of the public.
Though I am one of the fortunate ones who is not electromagnetic sensitive, I advocted in front of the Loveland, CO, city council on behalf of residents of the "Artspace" building on 5th St. in downtown Loveland, who suffered and are still suffering greatly from the effects of a 5G base station placed on the roof of their building. People in the building got extremely sick and a number of them moved out. A woman right below the tower, developed cancer. Pets died. Neither the city, nor the building owner, refused to do anything about it. Fortunately, the ones who moved out recovered. Since it is a low-income building, many just did or do not have the means to move out and remain there suffering. Wireless radiation, especially 5G, does not align with the natural electromagnetic rate of the human body, therefore is just plain dangerous. I have taken a stand against this technology and gave up my cellphone in 2020. Unfortunately, the world we live in is built on wireless technology to a good extent right now, so we need the support of HHS and the FCC desperately.
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.

return to their hives (Harst et al., 2006; Favre, 2011; Sharma & Kumar 2010; Sahib, 2011),
the resulting massive loss of workers thenleads to a colony collapse (e.g. Harst et al. 2006; Sharma a nd Kumar 2010), which is why electromagnetic radiation has been suggested as one
potential cause of colony collapse disorder (CCD) (e.g. Warnke 2009; Sahib 2011)”
