Towers & siting

Hi. I am a mom of two. In August of 2022 I was driving about a mile from our home. I noticed two huge new towers that went up near a water treatment plant. I pulled over in a parking lot to use my new Apple phone. The minute I started using it I felt electrocuted. I got so dizzy I drove myself to the hospital. They found nothing wrong. Since then, I had to quit my job working for a fortune 60 tech company. I struggle going into all stores, in our neighborhood, using my laptop, my phone, hotels, flying, etc… I feel best in a brick/concrete building or when I’m in the middle of no where. I worked for a tech company for almost 39 years from home with no problem. Obliviously something has changed in the state of Maryland and across the country that needs investigation to resolution.

I occasionally experience hypnagogic and hypopompic hallucinations. This is relatively recent in my life and I attribute it to the ever increasing wireless exposures, as all the cell phone towers going up and as optic cables get laid and as wifi is increasingly everywhere. My home router is 6G capable. These hallucinations occur during the period of wakefulness and sleep. I get jolted awake in the exact moments of falling asleep by a loud metallic grinding noise that is not external but generates from inside my own self. And I occasionally get awoken by pleasant beeping when coming out of sleeping in the morning that is also not external but generates from my own srlf and as soon as I am awake the sounds in both instances stop. There is no other explanation, and I think it is EMF related, and I dont know if I am right or wrong. On a side note, I believe EMFs/wireless also have affects on insects particularly honeybees. Insects are our pollinators for the worlds food supply. Do not neglect them in your investigations. Thank you for the opportunity to leave a comment.

We can control so many things about our health choices but the area of EMF exposure is an area I feel so helpless in. They keep installing towers by my house and my son’s health has suffered. It’s a silent poison. Please regulate this. Most people do not want data centers and we don’t need our phones radiating us around the clock either. The amount of EMF exposure coming from seemingly everything has gotten out of hand and we can’t get away from it!

We have two 5G towers near our apartment building. I have felt more lethargic along with brain fog. It has caused lack of motivation and decreased productivity since we work at home. My mental health was affected also. I felt more irritable for no reason.

The 5G towers are microwaving us. They are really dangerous and detrimental to our health. The SMART meters are also dangerous and put off lots of radiation.

You really should be consulting the scientific consensus about 5g policy, not asking Facebook users to determine what is or is not true about the health effects of 5g. What happened to all the taxpayer money we spent proving that they're safe? You're just gonna waste it all and base everything on what people with zero health or science background write? That said I have an arts degree so I do feel qualified to ask: Would it kill you to make them fun colors sometimes? I feel like 5g towers are pretty boring to look at. Millennial grey is SO 2015.

I want to know if cell towers 5G 6G and frequency damage our cell structure in any way. President Trumomsaid 6G they can see through the body. We want confirmation this is nit harming us. Is the frequency manipulating our minds/thought/ behavior in any way. Patents like US20030171688A1 and others show this is possible. Does the frequency & cell towers connect us to any systems, aided by the heavy metals, grapheme oxide used in vaccines & other products that stay in our body. Patents like WO2008014415A2 and KR100809274B1 show this can be done, also Microsoft patent US6754472B1 that uses the human body as a transmitter., are they using this technology on us in any way against our will ? Is there any use of frequency that affects our bodies and mental states in any way that is currently be used on American citizens? We want our bodies and minds to be sovereign and the frequency manipulation to end. There are too many patents showing that this is being used by our governments.

Thank you SO very much for looking into this.You asked for comments from those affected by EMF: I experience flashes of headaches often times while driving, and it's always when I'm close to one or between two of those big towers. The headaches go away after getting away from the tower(s.) Additionally, since moving to an apartment building a couple years ago, (I think it's due to being surrounded by multiple wi-fi systems) I began experiencing a crawling, tingling, muscular ache that goes up both my legs and to my "behind" when I'm sleeping- it wakes me up. I often wake up, now, with red, irritated eyes. I purchased EMF blocking socks and clothing and it does stop the body muscular "weirdness" from happening, but not the eyes, as they're not covered. I think it's sad to have to wrap up head to toe in a shield in order to be able to sleep peacefully. Additionally, I lost part of my hearing a few years ago and need hearing aids, but there are currently zero hearing aids available that don't put out dangerously high levels of EMF. I worked with Sara Swann a Beltone Hearing Specialist in Hurricane, WV, to try to find some that put out at 2 or below (zero is the the only "safe" radiation level, but Sara could find no hearing aids that didn't register/put out at least 28 on the EMF meter I carried into my visits with me. She went to the Beltone conference with an EMF meter and had the Beltone specialists try to fix the hearing aids so they wouldn't emit these dangerous levels, but no one could do this. Turning off the bluetooth connection between the hearing aids and the phones was recommended, but not effective, because the hearing aids still transmit wirelessly between the two hearing aids -- right through a person's brain -- and still put out at these high levels of 28. I'm sure very few people wearing these hearing aids know of these dangerous levels being emitted directly into their brains. It's the same dangerous story with cell phones, you'll likely know- those register at levels 3 to 4 times higher than the hearing aids, often in intermittent pulses, and especially when receiving a phone call. I purchased RadEnergy EMF protection phone cases at this link https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CVQPKZLC and measured the EMF of the phone out of the case, and then in the case, and the EMF was around 10 times HIGHER with the case ON. I did take videos of this. I believe these cases were manufactured in China, and I think this is an attack on innocent people. Thank you, once again, for ALL you are doing for us, Secretary Kennedy, and staff. I am so very thankful for you and your hard work for the betterment of our health not only since becoming Secretary, but the many years before.

Across the nation many residents are concerned about the small cell wireless antennas being deployed in our community. These powerful antennas, part of the next generation of wireless technology (5G), are being placed in close proximity to our homes, schools and other places where we engage in the activities of our daily lives, even though there is no science that assures their safety. This is an undeniable risk. The rapid rollout of the next generation in wireless communications known as “5G." In neighborhoods like ours across America, so-called “small cell” antennas need to be installed close to homes and apartments to facilitate this new technology. The deployment raises serious issues that should concern everyone in our community: safety, security, privacy, property values and health. The FCC’s human exposure guidelines for the radio frequency (RF) microwave radiation used for this technology are decades out of date and the agency has dismissed the results of decade-long research on RF microwave radiation and human health completed last year by the National Toxicology Program that showed “clear evidence of carcinogenicity.” Because the health and safety of our families is at stake, we demand a moratorium on further deployment of 5G until it can be proven safe. NOTE: This is a security and privacy issue. Wireless networks are relatively easy to hack compared to fiber-optic wired networks. Data from your phone and other wireless personal or home devices can be easily captured and marketed. In addition, small cell installations have the capacity to house cameras for facial recognition, as they do in China. What guarantees do we have that the technology will not be abused? This is a safety issue. Local zoning codes are meant to protect our safety, but the wireless industry is fighting those codes. Most existing utility poles (the preferred location for small cell antennas because it’s cheap) were not designed to withstand the hundreds of pounds of additional equipment, and severe weather events could bring down the poles, causing damage to our homes and property. Our local officials should have the right to decide where those new antennas and their equipment are placed. But perhaps most troubling is the news about our health. A recent (2018) peer-reviewed study by the National Toxicology Program of the National Institutes of Health – the most prestigious health research organization in the world – proved that exposure to radio frequency (RF) radiation, the kind emitted from all wireless devices and their infrastructure, causes cancer and DNA damage. Not maybe. Their language says there was “clear evidence of carcinogenicity.” We urge you to visit www.AmericansForResponsibleTech.org to learn more about these issues and what you can do to protect your home and family.

In 2017 I was injured by WiFi emanating from a replaced router/modem in early December 2016. My computer had always been intentionally wired. The technician turned on WIFI throughout the house and never mentioned it. Within four months I was feeling the weakening effects. By April I experienced flu like symptoms that never went away so I thought perhaps I had developed allergies.. By August I had become physically very handicapped and saw a chiropractor weekly so I could walk or turn my head. My hair had turned white and much had fallen out. I thought of killing myself as the irradiation process and disintegration was very painful, but due to senility which was also created, I could never remember my plans from the night before to end the misery. In mid-August I was invited to a friend's book signing on the history of electricity, The Invisible Rainbow. He read all the symptoms of electrical poisoning. I said to a friend sitting beside me, "I have all those symptoms". My friend said, "Well, you must have WiFi at your house." I replied in the negative and he insisted on seeing for himself. And yes, WiFi was everywhere till he turned it off. Obviously I am not computer literate. So yes, the WiFi was gone but not the symptoms. I was senile for about four more years. Parts of my body did not work well for several years. My hearing and eyesight are both, almost ten years later, very problematic. I had 20/20 eyesight prior to the WiFi. Digestive issues come and sometimes go, which had never been an issue before. I am allergic to cell phones; I have a landline whose receiver I cannot talk into but I use the speakerphone part. If I fly, I must wear special clothing and a head cover. Out in public if I get too much EMF exposure, I will have a bad cough the next day or even two if the exposure is too prolonged. My quality of life is definitely diminished. However I am very grateful that the cause of my ill health had been found before I died from the radiation. I am very concerned about the Smart Meter march forward as I know I will not have long to live if Smart Meters are required on every home. Please stop this from happening! Obviously I cannot be close to cell towers. Their proliferation is definitely cause for concern as the human race has not had time to mutate or adjust somehow to this influx of unhealthy EMF. People here have correlated proximity of cell towers to cancer outbreaks in that area of town, but the City Council professed not to be able to stop the spread of cell towers due to the FCC regulations and fines that would ensue if in opposition to cell tower erections. This is Unconstitutional and against each individual's right to life. I thank you so much for giving those afflicted a platform to espresso their concerns. If my immense suffering can save others from such an experience, I will feel I have not suffered in vain. Please help us all!
