Reports insomnia, pain, fatigue and perceived noise after nearby antenna deployment, improvement away fro…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Hello Mr. Robert F. Kennedy Jr, I am Isabelle Reine, French woman of 64 years old, and I live in a small town where 7 relay antennas were built during the lockdown covid19, en 2020, and the most nearly from my résidence is far from 150 meters. Since, I feel sick and very tired and I've got very more healt problems than before like insomnia, headaches, différentes pains and troubles (abdominal, lung ENT... ) I feel inconfortable and the nuisances physicals with waves, also earing, like noise pollution. Sometimes, also, irritated, lost of motivation, dépression, burning sensation inside. I've refused vaccination and connects meters for électricity and gas. For water, the équipment was installed, outside, without notifying me. I've got a phone 4G, a box, a PC, a TV at home. When I live some days, in a other place, far from antennas, I feel better and the noise polution stop. I see a real différence and I like to live in a better place but I can't pay for this. I hope all these nuisances will be stopped, every where, définitely and these ugly antennas will be to disappear from the landscape. idem for all others polution like chemtrails... Hoping better for the future and humanity all over the word. Lots of thanks for all you do, I believe in you. Best salutations. Isabelle Reine

Reports cardiac, skin and neurological symptoms near a base station and improvement after moving, describ…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I live in Sweden and I write as an individual from my own experience. About 15 years ago or so, I started having heart problems, skin problems and strong headaches. I was unaware of the base station on the roof opposite, 20 meters from and in level with my home. At that time there was little or no knowledge about what a base station was or looked like. During six years or longer, I began to experience symptoms of sunburn pain in palms, soles of feet and mouth; heart palpitations and irregular heart beats; headaches and head pressure, nerve pain and face rashes, trouble swallowing, blurred vision and then nose bleeds. Unaware of why at the time, symptom decreased when I went away was in large buildings with metal roofs, like offices or malls, with no base stations and at times when there was few visitors. I was diagnosed with heart arythmia and tried antihistamin medication for skin problems but it made no difference. But after moving and having longer distance to base station I began to feel better. Skin rashes and swallowing problems disappeared, arythmia decreased from daily / nightly to a few unregular beats weekly; headaches decreased from every week to about once every second month; nose bleeds decreased from a few every month to once or twice a year. Since then I use cable wired devices with wireless turned off. I think on of the most important things is to get information about using cable wired devices and the "pros and cons". I am glad I got aware of the situation. But of course, I am sometimes worried about the more serious health effects it might have for me living so close to a base station. Some additional information: Bioinitiative.org scientists reviewed around 1 800 studies and summarized that "Chronic base station level exposures can result in illness." And that "Many of these bioeffects can reasonably be presumed to result in adverse health effects if the exposures are prolonged or chronic." (https://bioinitiative.org/conclusions/). In the livingroom sofa and bedroom – where I spent most of my time – the measurements was 10 – 30 microwatts per squaremeter (bedroom) and arund 2 000 microwatts per squaremeter (livingroom sofa). This was in 2017, with a Cornet consumer meter. In other part of the home it was higher. Most likely communication from 3G (2100 MHz and 900 MHz )and 4G (1800 MHz and 2 600 MHz).

Objects to involuntary exposure from neighboring Wi-Fi and nearby towers, describes perceived illness and…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
EMFs (5G, Wifi, etc.) are making us feel physically sick. Even if an individual tries to limit their exposure, surrounding homes/apartments are using Wifi, and internet providers are constantly increasing the range of Wifi signals. My home is exposed to 14 different Wifi signals at any given time, even though I'm not using it. 5G cell towers are everywhere and dangerously close to homes, schools, and hospitals. The young and medically vulnerable are being blasted by a continuous stream of harmful EMF in huge doses. Other countries don't allow such high levels of EMF output, but Americans suffer being constantly exposed to this harm. This is wrong and needs to stop. There are safer ways to provide communication, even wireless communication. This is making people sick.

Opposes towers near homes and places children gather, cites personal detector observations and developmen…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I strongly oppose the placement of wireless communication towers or other wireless devices near residential communities, schools, churches, daycares, parks, and other places where children and families spend their time. Based on my own observations using an EMF detector, I have concerns about the levels of electromagnetic radiation emitted by these towers. I believe these emissions may pose potential health risks, especially to children whose bodies and brains are still developing. While I am not including scientific studies in this letter, there are many researchers and organizations that have raised concerns about the long-term effects of electromagnetic radiation exposure on human health. I do not believe that faster wireless internet speeds or any other reasons justify placing these towers close to areas where people live, learn, worship, and gather. Our society is already becoming increasingly dependent on internet-connected devices, and I am concerned that the continued expansion of wireless infrastructure encourages even greater screen use and digital dependency. Children especially need safe environments that support learning, social interaction, physical activity, and healthy development. For these reasons, I believe communication towers should be located well away from schools, churches, daycares, neighborhoods, and other places frequented by families and children. I respectfully ask that decision-makers prioritize public health and community well-being when considering the placement of these towers.

Attributes chronic illness to 5G towers and household routers and alleges a role for towers in weather ma…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
The 5G towers that sprung up while we were all locked down in 2020 are the main problem. Only only are the ugly as sin, the numbers that correlate the proximity to a tower and major chronic conditions looms large. These studies are very accessible and from all around the word. These towers also play a roll in weather manipulation, which is another major problem. Now you can 5G into your home! These micro waves from towers and routers are destroying us from the inside out. The science is clear.

Reports EHS beginning after a nearby antenna installation in Italy, improvement away from exposure and pr…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Subject: Public complaint about electrosmog in Italy and personal testimony on electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS) I am writing to denounce the abandonment of Italian citizens in the face of exposure to electromagnetic fields and the lack of protection for people suffering from symptoms attributed to electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS). In April 2024, national exposure limits were raised from 6 to 15 V/m. There are also no uniform minimum safety distances from homes, schools, and sensitive sites. I call for greater public attention, transparency, and precautionary measures to protect health. My story began in July 2024, one month after a mobile phone antenna was installed directly in front of my home. Other installations are located about 250 metres from my home and 200 metres from my workplace, where I have worked for 18 years. I began experiencing severe pain in my left epididymis and big toes. For months, my nails stopped growing. Medical examinations and treatments did not resolve the problems. Antibiotic and anti-inflammatory treatments only made my symptoms worse. I also noticed a strong stinging sensation in my face whenever I approached my mobile phone. That was when I understood the link between my symptoms and the new antenna. When I tried to explain my suspicions and the scientific evidence I had found to doctors, my concerns were met with scepticism and ridicule. In desperation, I contacted the Italian Electrosensitive Association, which gave me guidance on investigating the situation. My home was already partly protected: during renovations in 2012, I removed all wireless devices and fully wired my internet network and alarm system. To see whether leaving my usual environment might help, I spent several days in an isolated country house in the hills, keeping my mobile phone switched off. My symptoms eased and disappeared; within two days of returning home, they came back. This experience strengthened my conviction that the possible environmental causes of my symptoms needed to be investigated more seriously. By late 2024, convinced that the new antenna in front of my home was responsible for the onset of my electromagnetic hypersensitivity, I was forced to leave my apartment and move into a small ground-floor flat in an attempt to reduce my exposure. In 2026, the antenna was upgraded to accommodate two operators. Despite environmental shielding and protective clothing, I continue to feel unwell, even at field levels I measure below 0.1 V/m. My workplace is also a source of distress because of Wi-Fi devices, wireless equipment, and a nearby antenna. I currently suffer from chronic pain, including pain in my left epididymis, severe insomnia, tinnitus, difficulties with concentration and speech, night-time cramps, photophobia, episodes of migraine, nausea, and dizziness. I also experience debilitating fatigue, intestinal problems, food intolerances, and significant weight loss. I am paying for numerous medical tests myself in an attempt to find answers and treatment. This condition has profoundly affected my life. I am a divorced father of two young children and can no longer share many everyday activities, holidays, school events, or sports events with them. I have had to give up my social life and many essential activities. The only place where I have experienced a marked improvement is the country house in the hills, far from sources of electrosmog, but moving there permanently is incompatible with my family responsibilities and work commitments. I asked the local council to halt new installations, adopt a municipal antenna plan, and prevent further expansion in areas that are already saturated, but my efforts have not achieved the desired results. For all these reasons, this is not merely a testimony of suffering but a firm call for legislative action. It is essential and urgent that the authorities introduce concrete laws to protect public health: national emission limits must be drastically lowered, well below current levels, and strict, non-negotiable minimum safety distances must be established from residential areas, schools, and sensitive sites. It is also essential to encourage and promote wired connections in public and private spaces, guaranteeing every citizen the fundamental right to live and work in safe environments that are protected and free from electromagnetic impacts. Finally, public healthcare must urgently provide appropriate scientific and medical training so that healthcare professionals are prepared to take people experiencing these complex problems seriously, putting an end to an unacceptable culture of ridicule and scepticism. We cannot continue sacrificing people's health at the altar of technological profit, leaving people with EHS invisible and without rights.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
My severe health effects from exposure to manmade RF/EMFs Wireless microwave radiation began in Jan. 2016 when a lg. Cell tower was built half a block from my much loved home. It was 4G then. Immediately I began to have sleep issues, couldnt sleep deep, was restless, my hands would stretch over my head all night from stress and my leg would twist inward, I woke up many times and I could hear loud frequencies in my ears and head. I would have heart issues, racing heart , then high blood pressure, I got anxiety then depression as the months went by, then exhausted all the time, I was so tired I couldnt work like before 2016 and I would have blood pressure and heart chest pain disorders. By 2017 I had to go to urgent care and then to the hospital for chest pains. I noticed all WIFI infrastructure and devices, smart meters, etc. were emiting radiation that was causing me to be anxious and irritable. I would get brain fog and memory issues, When 5G was being implemented in March 2020 all over our neighborhoods in eastern WA. I was instantly experiencing so much high frequencies noise in my ears and head It was unbearable!, I got severe inflammation , my head was going to explode, I got angry from the pain and just wanted to escape the city and go to nature to find peace and calm to get away from such intense 5G (5000 hz/sec) manmade destructive RF. I was getting hot , inflammed daily from 5G cell towers, cell antennas, and all sorts of powerlines with 5G going up in the city from 2020. for the last 6 yrs. my life has been turned upside down and I have become a EM refugee; moving alot trying to find places to rent in the country and more remote (and very lonely and I cant work) to be away from cell towers cell infrastructure wifi internet routers in homes and neighbors.... which is almost impossible to find. from so much 5G infrastructure in all cities, towns, powerlines, homes, rentals, schools, public buildings, spaces, parks, etc. Its impossible for me to live in cities since 2020 due to 5G , am gaining weight from so much 5G wifi interference and i hardly eat, am vegetarian. As the whole USA cities and towns and even countrysides are full of wireless radiation, RF's , even satellites are all emititng tons of microwave radiation and its cooking the planet severely , all living things with a brain are getting fried by 5G , I am struggling daily to function, sleep, try to work if possible. the rf"s make me tired , heart issues, blood pressure issues, hair loss, mood swings, feel dried out, feeling v. tired and the 5G RF frequencies are so loud nightly after 1am to 6am daily. (I can hear them) .... i cant sleep. constantly turn and rotate into weird positions nightly. Now struggling with WIreless Rf's since 2016 I cant work hardly, had to close my office in 2020, sell my dearly loved home last yr. after being there for 20 yrs.... It has been beyond crazy hard to live isolated and always having some wifi issue and having to move. . I am forced to live away from people, I cant live in any towns with 5G infrastructure or other types of WIFI. I have to live in the country, in woods etc. as I got very sick from 4G and 5G wireless microwaves. have so many chronic health disorders from wifi. Living away from wifi and cell towers min. 2 miles etc. is the only way I can survive this mass EMR Wifi radiated society.
