Children & vulnerable groups

We all know that Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure is not good human and animal health, nor is it good for the environment. Large corporations that are heavily invested in these industries do not care about the health implications of the expose to the world community as a whole. All they care about is profits, control and power. Its a widely known fact that there are many complications to the human body and our health and to the environment. The media, the government, the big tech and phone companies, investment bankers, big conglomerates eg Black Rock, military industrial complex and the medical and pharmaceutical industries are all complicit in the silence of any negative or truthful data or acknowledgment that these are harmful to human life and the world that we all live in. This needs to be truthfully addressed and the whistleblower protected, not killed off like they have been. The people and the companies behind all this need to be exposed and tried in a court of law for crimes against humanity. Also the industry needs to be held accountable for the loss of life, the medical issues and the destruction and effect on not only human life, but animal, plant life/ The destruction on our planet as a whole needs to be stopped too. you know who they are, so stop protecting them. Think of the future for your children, Grandchildren and for humanity's sake.

I want to know why they massively increased these towers during covid lockdown. I have yet to see one physically being installed in our area, they seemed to have just appeared. I want to know why they put a smart meter on my house without our permission, they just changed it out. Certainly not enough communication between the companies that do this crap and the people that live here. I think they should have had hard core data and a discussion with the cities and townships before they installed all of these towers (eyesores) around the neighborhoods. Our bodies are full of electrical currents that generate naturally, our brains and hearts and I can't help but think that EMFs, Radiofrequency and Wireless Radiation are an overload to our bodies and wellbeing. You definitely need to have studies done on it's effects. Listen to both sides of the spectrum and the possible concerns from everyday people. We all saw what happened during covid are we going to let this turn out to be another mistake, people have legitimate concerns not only for themselves, but their children. Let's find some common ground and work towards a solution. We have already been bombarded with enough metals, plastics and poisons in our foods and water and this is just adding fuel to the fire. Please take this seriously!

AMAZING that you are doing this! I have been fighting the EMF war for decades now. Grew up in the generation where we didn't have all of this DEATH TECH and in fact it was illegal to put it anywhere near a house or school. Then brought 3 kids into the world and have been protecting my Family to the teeth. One of the major reasons they do not attend public school is because of the WI-FI in the classrooms/hallways/etc. Not to mention the cell phones of teachers and students nowadays! It's absolutely frightening, this digital environment. I help mitigate EMF radiation for others' and their homes/businesses with testing devices as well as creating protective barriers SMALL GAUGE CHICKEN WIRE, blocking most microwaves. But we don't want to have to protect.. we want the assailant source OUT of our towns. Smart Meters are one of the worst! But none of this compares to NEXRAD. You can click here and see whomever is controlling these DEMONIC DEVICES are manipulating the WEATHER simultaneously: https://weather.cod.edu/satrad/?parms=continental-conus-comp_radar-24-1-100-1&checked=map&colorbar=undefined. Especially in Texas and the East Coast! Please, TURN THESE OFF. We went on a journey around the 4 Corner States and were evading FIRES the entire 5 months! Only then did I start to recognize the pattern. Wherever there were Microwave Towers (cell) and NEXRAD (specifically), the air was DRY and almost violent. Most importantly, the CLOUDS & STORM SYSTEMS could not FORM! There should have been RAIN this entire summer/fall. We were in Colorado Springs, tucked into Cheyenne Mountain and would watch the massive rain clouds come in from the range but then DISINTEGRATE before our eyes as soon as they REACHED CITY LIMITS. Why?? Because of the massage PUEBLO & DENVER NEXRADs. Once these 270? devices are turned off around the nation.. WATCH the RAIN come. REAL CLOUDS and REAL WEATHER will resume!! Thank you so much for your time and ALL that you do for our GREAT COUNTRY. You are ANGEL WARRIORS! Contact me if I can be of Service, as well. Cheers and God/dess Speed.

I live in Canada. I am very sensitive and disabled by wireless frequencies, especially after a cell phone tower was placed behind my family's home in 2001. My three children became very sick with various symptoms that are well documented as typical with emf exposure. They were ages 4, 9 and 12. I became symptomatic approximately 1 year later. We had to abandon the home after a few years of torture, numerous meetings with the local councils, letters to the telecommunications company, Bell Aliant, letters and phone calls to Industry Canada. My requests to have the tower removed were eventually dismissed. The many council meetings were written up in the local papers. Many other people from our neighborhood and community attended these meetings and spoke at the meetings requesting the tower be removed. I became disabled and unable to work and remain so to this day. I am denied accomodation everywhere. I live a very isolated and lonely life. I was reduced to poverty, subjected to a moldy home for over 12 years as a result of the poverty and am now very sick fighting for my life to breath and do everyday things. I wish there was no wireless radiation. It should be against the law for the emissions to come through my home. I think those who say it is safe, are monsters. They are inhuman.

As a surviver of 2 cancers I am extremely concerned about our exposure to all the EMF, RF, and wireless radiation surrounding us and our children. Please consider doing unbiased studies on the safe levels which have not been updated in decades. There is a real economic cost in deteriorating health and lost productivity of allowing these poisons to go unched. Please restore our confidence that government agencies are working for the p[ublic rather than the entities they are regulating.

There are many things that need to be addressed. Cell towers should have to be a minimum distance away from schools, hospitals, neighborhoods. I say that distance is 500 meters, but right now I believe there is no minimum distance. Wireless routers should be limited to as few as necessary in schools. There is too much incentivizing the proliferation of wireless tech in schools. Light is also an EMF and therefore should be considered in this too. There's an abundance of research on healthier artificial light sources. Unfortunately, healthy light spectrum doesn't line up with energy efficiency. The energy efficiency of LEDs has been oversold and the light spectrum of LEDs has negative health consequences. We should look into healthier light sources such as incandescent and halogen. The lighting should be full spectrum and have low or no level of flicker. Fluorescent lights should be banned altogether. There are studies that show that the spectrum of light produced by most fluorescents makes ADD worse. Well, that's the lighting in every school. And LED isn't much better. Lastly, the state of our electrical grid should be taken into consideration for a few different reasons. The amount of harmonic distortion or transient distortion, better known as "dirty electricity", is a huge and increasing problem on our grid and it is know to causes health issues, such as tinnitus, ringing in the ears. Almost everyone today suffers from some degree of tinnitus. Another problem is high magnetic fields, from things such as unbalanced loads and wire spacing, in our neighborhoods. Lastly, ground currents are a huge problem with out grid. Electricity comes to the home from the power station on the "hot" line and electricity is supposed to go back, in the form of current, on the "neutral". Most of our electricity doesn't go back on the neutral, instead it goes back on the earth in the form of ground currents. This is an established problem with animals on farms, most notably dairy farms. It is having an effect on people too. There are many experts in this area. Our electric is put up and in the ground and maintained by a bunch of sub-contracted "cowboys". They are paid to put it in the ground or in the air by the foot and their M.O. is to get it done as quick as possible. I know industry rules, but maybe practices can be changed that don't hinder progress too much. There are well established experts on all of these topics. If nothing gets done regarding any of these issues, it will only serve to further erode the trust of government in the eyes of the people. The people deserve a quick resolution to a lot of these issues and more.

I'm writing as a concerned parent and citizen. I think more needs to be done to study the health effects of EMFs and RFs especially in schools, homes, vehicles etc. At school students are constantly surrounded by wifi and personal devices including tablets and Bluetooth headphones. At home smart meters are replacing analog meters. I have to pay a monthly price to have my analog meter read. Cell phone frequencies need updated studies. Wired headphones are becoming obsolete. Even new vehicles are constantly searching for wifi signals. 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.

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 the mother of an autistic child. I wrote the piece below that shows plenty of reasons why we should be more cautious about EMFs. It won't happen without regulation. You are going to have to stand up to big tech. But, I belileve it is neccessary for human survival.

My name is Joel Wright. I am in my 20s and am a U.S. citizen. At 18, I began suffering extreme health complications which I believe are directly caused by exposure to modern telecommunications equipment. I ask HHS to research the biology of my condition and set conservative emissions standards to protect future generations and allow people like me to rejoin society. I offer my testimony for any official proceedings. My hypothesis is simple: current ambient levels of non-ionizing radiation are unsafe. The environmental levels of ten years ago were high enough to collapse my health, and they have only intensified in the years since. The collapse was sudden and violent. I started college and a small business at 14; at 16 I earned Eagle Scout; at 18 I had a top ACT score. Yet, within months of graduating high school in 2017, that life ended. Bedridden, I suffered from agonizing neurological pain, memory loss, chronic fatigue, and extreme muscle spasms, among other symptoms. At times, I lost the ability to speak and walk. I was forced to abandon a full ride scholarship. We discovered in 2020 that the world’s most powerful technology was destroying my young body. There was no escape; the dangerous radiation emanates from homes, vehicles and every person’s purse or pants pocket. When the COVID lockdowns began and people fled an invisible virus, I fled invisible radiation, isolating from society in search of respite. The world adapted and reopened, but I persist in my lockdown. My current health comes at enormous cost. Until six months ago, this meant near-total isolation. I left home perhaps twice a year. I could not even attend church. The life my peers never consider, walking into a store, sitting in a crowd, carrying a phone, is for me a series of calculated risks. I follow strict regimens of diet and medication, controlling for stressors down to caffeine and sugar. Even now, visitors must leave their phones at the door, a request which I know sounds unreasonable, costing me standing each time I ask. Maintaining my dignity spends that same dignity in the eyes of others; to be young without a phone is unthinkable. It has cost me opportunities, friendships, dating, and my youth, all spent trying to heal. My condition is doubted not because of contradictory evidence, but because for decades agencies like the HHS and FCC declined to study whether this exposure is safe. RF exposure is nearly inescapable. I can leave a building, but I cannot control what passes through its walls into my body. Radio frequencies are integrated into everything, leaving no room for choice. Whatever the truth, this exposure has been imposed for decades - untested, unquestioned and ubiquitous. That is what I am asking HHS to change. The scientific case is stronger than ever. For decades, inaction rested on one claim: fields too weak to heat tissue could not affect us. That no longer holds. In 2026, a CRISPR screen identified a protein, Cyb5b, that transduces electromagnetic fields into cellular calcium oscillations through a voltage-gated calcium channel (Hwang 2026), confirming a mechanism proposed years earlier (Pall 2013). These fields act on cells without heating them, and calcium signaling governs DNA repair, oxidative balance, and cell death. A field that reliably disturbs it is biologically active, with a threshold where its effect becomes harm. This harm does not require extreme exposure. At the low environmental levels of everyday life, below federal limits, RF induces oxidative stress - a driver of inflammation and cellular damage - and disrupts a vertebrate nervous system (Yakymenko 2016; Engels 2014; ICBE-EMF 2022). Yet FCC limits still assume only heating can harm, a premise a federal court found inadequately justified (EHT v. FCC 2021). The gap is widest for developing bodies. In-utero exposure altered neurodevelopment in animals, dose-dependently (Aldad 2012); birth cohorts link prenatal exposure to childhood behavioral problems (Divan 2008); and in nearly 700 adolescents, cumulative RF brain dose tracked reduced memory development (Foerster 2018)-consistent with children absorbing more RF, more deeply, than adults (Gandhi 2012). Limits built on brief adult-animal tests cannot be assumed to protect a brain developing from birth. These conditions-below the limits, over a lifetime, from childhood-remain unstudied. I ask HHS to fund the mechanistic and long-latency research they demand, before exposure grows. I can comment only because I recovered, a rare gift. The comments HHS receives come from those well enough to find and respond to this request. Those still bedridden and impaired, as I was, cannot respond. I’ve included health journals from before I suspected RF, untainted by expectation, to show the truth. I survived as much by luck as by effort. I am asking HHS to act so that survival is not left to chance, to act so people like me and those still trapped, unable to speak, may live once more.

As a substitute teacher in various school districts, I'm concerned by the cellphone addiction I see by my students. It's disruptive to getting schoolwork done and I worry about the effects of cellphone exposure on their mental and physical health. I'm concerned about cellphone use affecting risks of cancer, neurological and neurocognitive effects (including developmental outcomes, sleep disturbances and reproductive outcomes.
