I’d just like to share my thoughts on these topics.
5G/cell towers potentially affect behavior(agitation, irritability, anger, anxiety, headache, sleep, ect.)
Majority of average homes are filled with wifi modems and smart devices. Smart devices can be accessed by utility companies, locked, turned off, thermostats adjusted, water usage restricted on washing machines, ect. Potential for devices to be hacked/accessed by others with malicious intent is also a concern. Not to mention the data being collected from the use of these devices. The body seems to find comfort and ease away from devices and their frequencies.
Addictive devices such as cellphones affect every day life, relationships, driving habits where people can’t put their phones down, social behaviors, demoralization. Long term cellphone, computer use affecting the blood cells causing clumping restricting oxygen flow, eyes, sleep, ect.
Our environment and every aspect of our lives has been invaded by non native EMF’s and RFs. Not just on the human body, but also the life of animals, insects and marine life that share this environment. Strange behaviors are accusing in all of the above. There is a potential for catastrophic, irreversible damage that needs to be investigated.
Hello, my experience w/ EMF ha been a devastating one. A cell tower was put up at a fire station without any notice, and I used to subscribe to the local newspaper, so I should have seen something about it. I had no idea the problem was EMF but after several years of suffering, trying everything to help myself, nothing worked. Long story short: the problem was EMF; the tower directly outside my living room window, with a clear line of sight to our home. I had 15 different health problems (wish I had kept that list), but included heart palpitations (still having this problem), horrible hot flashes, very poor digestion, Reynaud's syndrome, vertigo, always swollen tongue, always feeling zapped/tired, couldn't sleep more than an hour (exhausting) and so on. I was looking to quit my job as I couldn't drive w/ the vertigo. It was bad, turned out life upside down.
Once I found out about EMF and practicing "distance and avoid" the symptoms disappeared, some overnight! I also bought a very good quality meter to be sure this was not "in my head"; it wasn't; everytime I'd get near it or overexposed, the symptoms would reappear.
My neighbors chickens developed huge ulcers hanging from their necks due to smart meters. The eggs had strange shapes. I've seen first hand "damages" done by these wireless radiation exposure.
So, please limit the distance and exposure of EMFs to PEOPLE, espcially residential neighborhoods. It is WRONG to have cell towers near homes, where we should be able to get good slepp to recover and rejuvenate our bodies, our beings. Listen to Environmental Health Trust (EHT) and Childrens Health Defense (CHD) and others like 5G Free California; these people genuinely care and study EMFs; they know what they are talking about.
If you need proof, here are a list of some; trust me, EMF problems are real; they cause real health issues and the sad thing is no one is clearly and openly warning people. Thanks to Mr. Kennedy and some others who now are. EHT has been warning us from the start too.

There are many more. It's criminal to put up a cell tower on elementary school grounds or stick laptops on kid's hands to stare at many hours a day.
Please take measures to limit wireless tech exposres. I'm not against it; I want CHOICE to use it if I want it. Some want the full exposre, great! They should have it, but it should be a CHOICE to those who don't want it.
I live in deep woods, almost off grid, to get away from so much exposure, and it's helped me. I should be able to live in town like others. I've accepted I no long er fly; I no longer to to concerts or any place w/ a lot of people (who all have cell phones).
THANK YOU for considering these thoughts. Please help! Please limit exposures and please have it be an option to use wireless. The corded items should be kept as a choice who want it.
The exposure to nnEMFs is outrageous. 5G towers at children’s schools and playgrounds, multiple smart meters connected to every home, WiFi grids, and an inability to live without extreme exposure. The push for the quick rollout of 6G is also devastating. Young friends are suffering from vertigo, many are suffering from tinnitus, people everywhere are ill from radio sickness. Enough is enough. Americans deserve a chance to live without so much poison and disruption to our physiology. The children deserve to go to school without 5G towers in their playgrounds! The research on nnEMFs and their effects on the body have been done - they were never promising and nothing has changed. It’s time the HHS and this administration actually took the health of Americans seriously and stopped skirting around the most pressing issues.
I believe (I read this on an "EMF Sensitivity" group gage on FaceBook - that the more you are exposed to EMFs. the more sensitive you become to them.
I lived in an apartment where there were 3 WiFi Towers on a next door building (at the level of my apartment. Also the doors in my apartment (100 units)building were all METAL - not sure if that was a contributing factor to my issues.
My eyes, fingers, feet, started to feel "burning".
I bought some copper EMF shield material & tried to stay in areas shielded by that in he apartment.
My issues became so bad that I stayed at a friend's place & moved out as fast as I could forfeiting security deposit.
I have to use plastic laptop (non-metal) otherwise fingers burn. Even using phone too long makes fingers burn.
During Covid, the city where I live, Milwaukee, was very busy installing 5G towers on every corner of every city block around apartment dwellings (None in bougie neighborhoods!) - While most other businesses were on lock down.
I think all the EMFs make people edgy, stressed, can't sleep. can't focus (thoughts) also.
I had to have open heart surgery at 5 years old for heart inflammation which caused a hole in my heart as well as 3 leaking heart valves. I also discovered when I was in my late 30’s that I had elevated prolactin which could keep me from getting pregnant. Also have bad allergies. Those were my pre-existing conditions. In 2019, I went to my cardiologist who said that although I had leaking heart valves, everything was ok, especially since I am able to do hard construction work on a daily basis. I live 1,568 feet from the closest cell tower (see cell tower 3 pic). After 2020, I noticed that my fingertips were burning badly when I was using my Ipad (wifi). Since I used it alot I have a feeling it damaged the nerves in my fingertips or something. After that I had to stop using my Ipad altogether. I now only use a stylus for my non 5G Iphone. What then started happening is that when I toggled the cellular function on and off on my Iphone, I got like a low level shocking feeling which then travelled up and down my body. So now I only use calls over wifi and don't use the cellular function any longer, even when I'm outside of my house. It's terrible for my business because I’m missing lots of calls, but I know these phones are affecting my health badly. After 2020, at least two more cell towers were put up by my house. They are 5,000 feet from my house (see cell tower 2 pic). Besides more antennas being added to the tower that's 1,568 feet and the other two towers, I now have been diagnosed with a heart arrythmia. My hands fall asleep overnight and many times I feel my heart rate is too low. I have to move between sleeping in two different locations in my house because I think the radio waves from home 5G or people's cell phone pass right through my house. I bought an EMF meter but it doesn’t measure the full spectrum of 5G. In addition, so many of my Evergreen trees and my neighbor’s trees have died. You can clearly see parts of trees which have died if you follow a straight path from the cell tower and their electric/gas meters/house. The shrubs in front of my gas/electric meter have died off as well as my beautiful tree branches right in the path. I spoke to an employee of a local business who told me he used to be a cell tower climber/technician. He told me that cell towers kill trees and they know it.
One of my customers got so sick after 2020. She almost lost her house. She also had pre-existing conditions (endometriosis) I had worked at her house prior to 2020. There was no cell tower by her house before 2020. After 2020, a cell tower was put up in front of her house only 384 feet away (see cell tower 1 pic). Her son who’s in his 30’s was constantly sick after that cell tower was put up. He uses his phone a lot.
After living in the same place for 25 years, it's easy to see what's happening. Radio waves- although useful- are causing a lot of harm. If the public is made aware of things they can do to reduce their EMF exposure- that would benefit the public. Please help!
In 2012, a technician from Hydro Québec rang at my door and installed a smart meter on the exterior wall at the right of my house. Instantly I got a headache, nausea, vertigo. The during the night I could not sleep completely and feeling "head fog". The day after I was feeling nausea and could not think clearly. I phoned Hydro Québec to ask them ton come to change that meter. I explained how I was feeling and be sick after that installation. They refused. My health continue to decline: I began to have cognitive difficulties like lost of memory and difficulty to find my words to speak. I decided to quit my home and live in my friend's home 6 month, until Hydro Québec accepted to retraet that smart meter for a non communicated one.
In 2014, I had a episode of 3 syncopes after they installed a cell tower at 350 meters of my home.Since then when I go outside I have headache, losing balance of my body, have vertigo and nausea.
When people around me have bluetooth watch I feel heave pain in my stomach, legs and belly then I have nausea.
I lived near where there is a 5g antena, was detected cancer in the head and neck area. , I would get headaches and couldn’t sleep. Thank God I have little over 4 years clear after my last radiation of 33. They can’t explain why I got it or they don’t want to say. I have heard of others that love near those 5g antenas that have also gotten sick
I was living a total "normal life" with a partner and three children, working as a carer in many different homes. Since a young age I had occasionaly migraines and suffered from those, but in 2020 they became very reccurent and so sore to the point where I thought they was blood dripping inside my scalp around my brain. They got so bad that I ended having some ophtalmic migraines followed by hemiplegia migraines. I also have had a few tiny strokes !!! I used to sleep up to 2 hours tops at night no matter what I did. I then realised that my headaches were getting worse in some places I worked at, and not so bad in others. At home it wasn't getting any better. I by miracle (and I say miracle otherwise i'd probably be dead by now) understood that the wireless exposure were the things that made me have EMR Syndrome symptoms just by swtiching my wifi off one night. I started minimising my hours at work and obvisously the work placements therefore I wouldn't suffer as much. I then had to run away from home because even by doing all that, things weren't getting any better as they was a 5G antenna 400 meters away from my house... I had to leave everything, and lost everything just because I was living in a microwave that i never asked for and didn't want to end up burning up like a piece of alluminium in a micro wave. I now live in a safe place with hardly any neighbours, don't go out, don't see anyone unless they switch their wireless equipement off such as mobile phones, connected watch, Bluetooth items etc etc ! All of those things have to stay away from the house I where live now. I sleep in a Faraday cage, and use the strict miminum the electricity. I can't go to the kids school parties, go to weddings, go on holidays, see family etc, all I can do is stay isolated at home, it isn't fair at all as I never asked or even needed all this technology to destroy me and my life. This has to stop as I am sure many people are sufferring around the world and probably being called pshychos when in reality they are far from it.
I am EMF sensitive. When smart meters were placed on our home we both were unwell for a few weeks. Please keep 5G away from schools and out of residential neighborhoods. We don't need it harming our health. The EU has much more awareness of the potential dangerous of EMF than in the US. Please curb what the industry is doing.
I remember my first cell phone. My parents bought it for me when I was in fifth grade. It was a pink Razr Motorola flip phone. Little did I know at the time that a few years later, I would start working for an environmental health non-profit organization on Long Island where I’d learn about the seriously disturbing health effects linked to wireless radiation exposure emitted by devices like cell phones, WiFi routers, and even those big cell towers that we see on highways and near homes across America.
On the first day of my internship with the non-profit, the organization’s Executive Director sat me down at the office dining room table and dropped a couple of three-inch binders, each overflowing with paper, right in front of me. The table shook due to the weight of the binders. She told me that every piece of paper in each binder was just a sliver of the scientific literature about the biological effects of wireless radiation exposure. DNA damage. Sperm damage. Oxidative stress. Cancer. The list of terribles went on. My eyes widened. I had been, and continue to be, a health-conscious person. I want a healthy family, and I want to live a long, happy life. It greatly angered me to realize to realize that I had handled wireless devices in a potentially unsafe way -- especially during some of my most important developmental years -- because I just didn’t know better. Before that day in the office, nobody had ever told me that wireless radiation is a health hazard. Where would I have learned such information? From the non-existent warning label on my cell phone? From health class? From the FCC -- a revolving door for telecom lobbyists and former industry insiders? From the media outlets that get their advertising money from Verizon and AT&T and T-Mobile?
After years of working in the non-profit sector and learning as much as I could as quickly as I could about the wireless telecommunications industry and the scientifically documented adverse biological impacts of RF radiation, I became a staunch advocate for the responsible and thoughtful placement of wireless telecommunications infrastructure. But that wasn’t enough. I couldn’t just be an advocate. I needed a law degree. So, I went to law school so I could teach municipalities about the powers they have to enact wireless telecommunications ordinances that prioritize public safety and smart infrastructure siting. And I still enthusiastically do that work today with my brilliant father who has practiced law for over 43 years.
I am genuinely encouraged that HHS has issued this RFI. I hope this marks the beginning of a fundamental shift in how our federal government addresses the health and environmental implications of wireless radiation. The FCC has had ample time to act, and its record speaks for itself. Clearly, it cannot do its job. HHS must now take a leading role in investigating the health effects of wireless radiation and ensure that public health drives federal policy. This is HHS’s big moment to be on the right side of science and history. Please seize it.
Thank you for your consideration of my comments.
