ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
My friend's son, 28, got a brain tumor right behind his ear where he always held a cell phone. He lived through the surgery but is now on disability, he cannot work or live alone.

Attributes family headaches to wireless exposure, reports others’ cancer concerns, and requests investiga…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Wireless radiation has caused headaches and other negative health effects in my family. Some i know believe cancers were caused by these towers. There have been schools where many children and teachers have fallen ill after installation of the 5g towers near them. Please stop and take look into the effects of these towers. Frequencies affect us all.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am submitting this comment as a consumer concerned about long-term exposure to wireless radiation from phones, Wi-Fi routers, cell towers, and other connected devices. I urge HHS to conduct a thorough, independent review of whether current exposure limits adequately protect public health. This review needs to consider those most heavily exposed and should examine potential effects beyond tissue heating, including evidence concerning cancer, reproductive health, and children’s development. Please prioritize research that reflects how people actually encounter wireless radiation: repeated exposure over many years, often from multiple sources and devices used close to the body. Assessments should consider signal strength, pulse patterns, duration, and combined exposure. Please consider Melnick and Moskowitz’s 2026 analysis of animal data, which argues that existing exposure limits may inadequately protect against cancer and reproductive harm (https://doi.org/10.1186/s12940-026-01288-6). I also ask HHS to evaluate Lai and Levitt’s review of exposure intensity, duration, and signal modulation (https://doi.org/10.1080/15368378.2022.2065683), and Scarato’s review of US regulatory gaps and proposed reforms (https://doi.org/10.3389/fpubh.2025.1677583). These papers warrant careful consideration alongside the broader evidence, including studies that have not found adverse effects. I ask HHS to: •Assess whether additional protections are needed for children, pregnant women, and other potentially vulnerable groups. •Support long-term research with safeguards against industry conflicts of interest. •Provide clear information about exposure and practical ways to reduce it, including wired alternatives in homes and schools. •Recommend updated standards wherever the evidence shows that existing limits are insufficient. Consumers should not have to navigate these questions alone. Please use this inquiry to advance transparent science, meaningful oversight, and public health protection.

Reports electromagnetic hypersensitivity, headaches and chest pain limiting phone use and employment, and…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I have unfortunately developed a hypersensitivity to EMF radiation from various sources. I can feel in pain the difference between high radiation and low radiation. I have on and off been able to use a cell phone and work. I have suffered loss of income and various medical issues as a result of this. I get headaches, chest pains, and fever with high radiation. I would like to see significantly more serious research into this issue and demand regulation of radiation levels on devices and in general areas of high cell phone use. Extra concerning is the use of cell phone towers on buildings in residential areas where there is a potential for 16 hour or even 24 hour exposure to a cancerogenic technology.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Hi I always get a tingling feeling like pins and needles in my fingers when i hold a Cellphone I can also feel this in my legs sometimes, Now I have a cellphone radiation protecting mobile case on it and when I use it i have internet conected via cable to it. In front of the Computer i often get a red irritated skin in my face so i keep the distance. I have also met many people through the years including my mum who used to work with computers who react to EMF:s with various symtoms,I really hope you take action seriously in this matter to protect peoples health and especially our children otherwise many people will be sick and also get cancer etcetera. Best regards Anna in Sweden
