ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
My sister is greatly affected by EMF frequencies. She requires anyone visiting her house not have a phone on them, any key fob on a person must be put into a coffee can immediately and then its put out in the garage or somewhere far from her, any smart watches must not be worn, all blue tooth devices in your car must be disabled or you need to park far down the street from her. When she is outside her house if anyone starts up a riding lawn mover or uses other types of electrical devices, she is often affected and has to immediately go in the house (where she has shielding up to protect her) and usually has to leave her house if it does not help. If she is able to come to my house, we must turn off all WIFI and also turn off all wireless devices like our internet router. She only comes to family functions approximately once or twice a year as she is so affected by neighboring satellite dishes, powerlines, and electronic devices. She is so greatly affected by neighbors 5G phones and WIFI that she does not sleep in her house at night. She needs to stay in her car where ever there is less powerlines, devices and such. When she is in her car she must unhook her battery to her car so she is not feeling its constant affects and then she will not be in so much pain. In her car, she must put up shielding to protect her from EMF frequencies. This is no way for any human to live. I miss my sister greatly and feel so sorry for people that are affected by all of this.

The commenter describes hypersensitivity to electronics and wiring, neurological and sleep symptoms, and …

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I don’t have any scientific evidence to share but can share the short version of my story. Ever since I was exposed to mold in our home and with a combination of traumatic events and stress on my nervous system, I have been hypersensitive to electronics and certain electrical wires. Symptoms include/have included brain fog, metal feeling in teeth, numbness in hands when using iPhone, a static-y feeling in my neck, and overall screen fatigue. It makes productivity difficult to say the least. At my worst, I could feel my husband’s phone ring before anyone even heard it buzz. I can tell when a home has Alexa. I couldn’t sleep in the master bedroom of one home because I’d wake up with night sweats and a headache—turns out the electric wires entered from that corner of the house. I slept in a different room from then on and had no problems. Long car rides are difficult with blue tooth, even when it’s supposedly off. Ear buds make me feel like I am under water. The list goes on but know the effects of EMF/RF/etc are very real and I wouldn’t wish my “superpower” on anyone.

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 [patient, parent, family member, healthcare professional, researcher, advocate, and concerned member of the public! YOU HAVE TO STOP THIS INSANITY AND REGULATE THE EMF DAMAGE TO ALL OF US WITH THESE BULLSHIT MILITARY INSTALLED CELL TOWERS, ANTENNA'S ON EVERY LIGHT POLE, THE HORRID FLOCK CAMERAS TOO!!! HAVE YOU SEEN THAT MAP OF WHERE COVID WAS WORSE WITH THE MAP OVERLAY OF WHERE ALL THOSE TOWERS WENT UP OVERNIGHT WHILE WE WERE ILLEGALLY LOCKED DOWN??? COVID ILLNESS IS REALLY EMF DAMAGE??? AND WHY IS 50 different WIFI customers show up in my yard??? I WON'T EVEN HAVE INTERNET IN MY HOME ANYMORE AND DO NOT WANT EVERYONE ELSE's WIFI IN MY YARD EITHER!!! GET RID OF THE STUPID SMART METERS TOO!! HORRID BAD DIRTY ELECTRIC! Tell HHS how wireless radiation has affected you, your child, your family, or someone you care about. You may describe the source and duration of the exposure, health effects experienced, when they began, whether reducing exposure made a difference, and how these experiences have affected daily life. If you are an ally, describe why you support people affected by wireless radiation and why 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. GET ON IT PRONTO PUP!! WE ARE MAXED OUT! with geoengineering 24/7 here too!

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Hello, I am submitting a comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure. I live in Eugene, Oregon. About 2 years ago, our electric company forced everyone to have a SMART meter installed on their homes. I tried to request an analog meter but was denied. I have friends that would not allow them on the property, and their electricity was shut off and threats of arrest until they complied. I was given the option to opt out of the signal, which I have to pay extra for. They say the extra cost is for sending out meter readers, but I have always paid for this service. Since the SMART meter installation, even though I have the signal turned off there is still dirty electricity throughout my entire home, and I have difficulty breathing and difficulty sleeping through the night. I have spoken at multiple board meetings about the adverse health effects of the SMART meter, asking for the option of an analog meter, but am told that I will never be given that option because the electric company owns the meter. I am also a mother of 4 children. One of my daughters has chronic headaches when she is at school. She says that it is from being on computers all day long. We have hard-wired internet at home, and she does not experience headaches when using the computer at home. Please advocate for people to make their own choices with their home environment. Also, fiber optics is used in our home for internet, and it is very effective when used in schools overseas, not exposing our children to harmful EMFs all day long. 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 greatly appreciate your efforts in providing individuals and families with an opportunity to be heard.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I have dealt with a variety of issues with EMF. For instance, I cannot wear a battery powered watch or it will make my wrist ache pretty badly. Cannot wear a cell phone on my body without it aching. So I don't do it. when I moved into this house I am in now, unknown to me there were some wiring errors that created stray current which led to high magnetic fields. I thought I was dying until a basic Trifield meter exposed the fields and I shut off the circuits involved. Slowly I started to recover my health. Electricians did not know how to fix this so I had to find out myself. Took a long time to fix the wiring errors. All electrical items worked properly but still we had the high magnetic fields. I wonder how many houses have this and don't know it. When I was a child a dentist put several large metal amalgam fillings in my molar teeth. I had no problems with those fillings until wifi and cell signals were everywhere. Then I had just a slight tingling in my jaw. It was noticeable. I also had a few crowns on my teeth which were porcelain on the visible side but metal underneath. I paid a lot of money to have all the metal removed from my mouth and replaced with ceramics. Guess what? No more tingling. The tingling indicated an interference from the wireless signals. Guess what? Lots of people have metal in their bodies. in their mouths, their joints, bone repairs, etc. It is an issue and is why you don't get a good cell signal in a metal building. The metal interferes and interacts with the cell and wifi signals. I am not (yet) hypersensitive to EMF or EMR however I realize I do have a certain sensitivity and could become hypersensitive. So I urge caution with Electromagnetic exposure. I have also paid a good bit of money to make my home a safe haven free from wifi, dirty electricity, etc. It is a constant game of vigilance to see what is going on even in my home. I have several meters just to protect myself. So yes I have spent a lot of money and time on this issue. What happens to those who don't have the money, the time or the ability to research and find out what is hurting them? Their lives are adversely affected. We do need protection from the harmful signals. Especially those close to the towers and other emitters such as wifi devices. These wifi devices do not need to be emitting so much and should all have an on off switch. Which reminds me I saw a wifi router with a switch to turn wifi off but when turned off my meter showed it was still emitting wifi signals. That should be unlawful. It is deceptive. Hopefully we will see some changes for the better. Thanks.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Dear Secretary Kennedy and HHS, I would like to thank you for tackling all that you do. I understand this is not an easy job you have and it is much more difficult than most people realize. I do hope in the end that American people are not under the constraints of being poisoned by big Pharma, big Ag, Stratospheric injections plus now the electromagnetic fields in our environment , 5G and now coming 6G. We have the right as citizens of the United States have a say in what is going into our sovereign bodies. I am pharma injured, once by a vaccine 30 plus years ago, and also by a medication ( benzo) that was prescribed to me after the vax injury which destroyed my life. I am now “med” free but am left with much damage and one of my symptoms from that is severe sensitivity to foods, chemicals, and many times the environment. We did live in a more rural area on the outskirts of Sedona Az. in an unincorporated area. We built our home in a small community that has now grown. I felt I never had issues with the 3 g and 4 g lite that was here, only when things ramped up did I started noticing physical symptoms. Things I felt got worse when we installed solar panels on our home ( we do have the meters caged ) and fortunately for us they are on the far side of our garage far away from where we sleep. Our plants on that side of the house never seem to grow whereas everywhere else on our property there is normal growth. I started waking up each evening with head aches around 3 am, finding it hard to go back to sleep. Somedays I am foggy headed with head pressure, tinnitus, malaise and irritable. So my husband and I did an experiment to test if we were having issues with our home. We bought a trailer and went on road trips away from big cities, staying in campgrounds with little or no wifi around us and I sleep through the night, no headaches, tinnitus, insomnia ,lethargy etc. We are just fine. I was also reading some of these comments before I commented and I saw two, ( didn’t read that many so I find this interesting) that responded that they had what they thought was EDS. Ehlers Danlos Syndrome an wondered if it was correlated. I believe I have this as well. I had never had issues with this until the last 7 years or so. Was it the benzo, is it 5G? contributing to symptoms that mimic this? This year after our escape from home ( that was previously our sanctuary) we have new power lines up, mammoth power lines. there is a humming outside at night and no one knows where is is coming from, these lines are less than two blocks from us. Our sleep has become worse at home again, and the waking at night and feeling foggy headed again in the day, sometimes no energy. We did have an EMF specialist come to our home and tell us how to mitigate some issues, hard wiring, keeping cell phones on airplane mode, cleaning up two areas that had some dirty electricity. My Naturopathic doctor believes this could be the cause of some of my issues. Please take this seriously there are 100”s of studies out there already showing the damage done by 5G, EFS, smart meters. I do take my health seriously. I eat organic, pure real food, no packaged crap, I am active, exercise and am very mindful of my health yet I still have health problems. Thank you, Brandy Hofmann

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am a 52 year old female. I had lived in West Michigan for most of my life and had dealt with ocular migraines but never had the painful headaches. I was living in a suburb of Dallas Texas for a about 5 years, and started getting painful migraines and severe brain fog. We had a camper in rural East Texas and I started noticing that when we stayed out there away from the powerful wifi and high voltage lines I felt better. When we had to drive home, I started getting a headache about 30 minutes from our house. I was then diagnosed with papildema and IIH. My husband and I decided to move to east texas full time. It took us months to find a home as I had to stay at the house and wait about 30 minutes to see if a headache started or if ringing in my ears became louder. We were blessed to find a place surrounded by trees and pond on 6 acres in Crockett Texas where there was minimal cell and wifi service as well as the high voltage lines. Now when we need to go to Dallas for appointments, when we are getting to closer to town, i can feel a headache coming on. if we have to stay for a few days i wake up in tears because of the migraine. we recently travelled to the panhandle of Texas and there was a patch of highway that was lined with with high voltage lines, not knowing we were coming up on them, i noticed a headache coming on, then a while later, i saw the lines. when we drove out of the area, the headache subsided. I also want to mention when the campground is full and everyone is using their wifi and cell phones, I usually get a headache within 24 hrs of my stay. I do wear a baseball cap to help minimize the exposure. it has a copper lining. and it helps tremendously. The brain fog and headaches are the major symptoms.

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, healthcare professional, researcher, advocate, and a concerned member of the public. I believe this issue should be addressed because our town is littered with cell towers at every school, flock cameras, and surrounded by solar fields on all sides. It definitely feels like a war in which the "people" are defenseless. The cell towers are on top of our stadium lights at the high-school. Every game we are forced to sit next to theses not knowing what harm may come. Headaches during the game are routine for me and I have began to wonder if the towers are having any effect. 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!

The commenter reports that tinnitus, headaches and other symptoms disappeared during a three-day power ou…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I have many symptoms that have only increased over time as EMF exposure sources have increased. I suspected that EMF sources may be a possible cause of my symptoms due to the correlation between increases in EMF exposures and increases in symptoms. A surprise experiment made my suspicions stronger. When the electricity at my house went out for three days due to storm damage, thereby removing EMF sources (the smart meter, wiring in the walls, Wi-Fi, cordless phones, digital clocks, power strips, etc), my symptoms were temporarily gone. The constant ringing and buzzing in my ears stopped. The tingling and zapping sensations in my body stopped. My seemingly permanent headache went away. I slept better than I had in the years since the installation of the smart meter (that I did not want on my house) and the loss of my ability to turn off the Wi-fi (due to technical problems). Then the storm damage was repaired and electrical service was restored to my house. With the return of the electricity came the return of the EMF sources and my symptoms. Even without being in a house with no electricity, I can feel differences in EMF exposure in my body. Something as simple as having a digital alarm clock at different distances from my bed affects my sleep and other symptoms. The closer the clock is to me, the worse my symptoms are. The same is true for time spent close to other EMF sources. I have sought help for various symptoms in the past few years as my symptoms have worsened, but doctors have dismissed my symptoms and concerns. The best I can do is reduce my exposure as much as possible, but there are many exposure sources that I cannot control. I know many other people have also suffered and continue to suffer from negative health effects from EMF exposure. An evaluation of EMF health effects is long overdue.
