Describes turning off wireless devices to accommodate visitors who report headaches and nausea, and suppo…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
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 concerned member of the public. I have been told that wireless radiation gives them massive headaches. I have turn off the router in my home or turn off the WI-Fi or cellular data when I have guests over. Otherwise they can't handle being inside my home. It gives them headaches and nausea. 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.

Objects to bright blue-rich indoor and vehicle LED lighting, reports sleep disruption and requests nation…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
LED lights used for interior and exterior lighting in homes and stores are too bright and too blue. This intense light is unpleasant and additionally disrupts sleep. LED lights in vehicle headlights, blinker lights, reverse lights, fog lights and brake lights are too bright and too blue. We should have national standards like those advocated by the DarkSky organzation that keeps light intensity low and prevents light pollution and keeps light a nice warm color temperature. Thanks you. Chris Tucker, 5611 17th Ave NW D6, Seattle, WA.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
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 and concerned member of the public. This EMF in our air definitely needs to be addressed for our health to be protected better! EMF's are getting into us everywhere now and it can damage our DNA, brains, etc. My brain is so low on energy and I haven't found a medical specialist who can help me properly. Psychiatrists just want to prescribe meds. I don't want to be hooked on meds that can cause other problems. I ask them if they are brain specialists. ...NO. Just offer meds for the issue. I'm SO THANKFUL FOR the EMF Solutions company that has protective resources!!!! Though I think my brain already has some permanent damage.?? SO SAD that so many kids are on cell phones and unprotected! PLEASE establish appropriate federal research priorities regarding wireless radiation and public health. Thank you for providing individuals and families with an opportunity to be heard.

An engineer reports physical injury and a brain injury attributed to residential electrical exposure, rec…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Hi, I am glad I didn't miss out... I do have a message to give I am an engineer I am a manufacturing mechanical engineering I do all types of engineering research... Within the last 15 years 15 years I have been affected within my environment and it's been something I couldn't see by me being an engineer I started elimination process of elimination of my environment and things which could attack me or or damage me physically it came out to be the high levels of electrical energy being distributed within the environments and communities that I resided. My Physician specialist gave a medical certificate stating that it is high levels of electrical energy being distributed within my residential area that is causing and affecting me physically and damaging my muscles tissues etc. This electrical energy distribution levels have been so high until it affected me physically it actually left a scar on my right Temple I'll have the scar every time I'm around high levels of electricity this scar seems to just pop out like a vein it glows almost like it's a greenish color... So I'm just going to say this I am an engineer and high levels of electricity and the thermal energy that we're dealing with we're dealing with some dangerous stuff very dangerous I have a traumatic brain injury by the high levels of electrical energy dispersing in these residents environments it's caused my pituitary gland to react and have to be monitored... I feel those who are professionals in this services and these utility services for them to be so dishonest about this for over the years is dramatic and appalling they seem as if they don't have children family kids or grandparents because if they did they would be honest about what we are all living around and having to adapt to the temperatures are going to rise everything is going to crack until we streamline this electrical usage and Technology we're using. I at this time actually a few minutes ago I'm looking on Linux to streamline how we're dealing with this these AI Data centers the amount of Technology streamlining through them if we can lower that we can make things a bit dense more adaptable. And it is burning me up literally it's been very painful and then you talk about inflammation soot all of this is brought on by our technology the EPA warnings it's all about this technology and what's deriving in our environment Thank you Contacts: Ms. Raymonda Singleton raymondasingleton@gmail.com 6197152820. If there's anything you'd like to know about this technology just asked request send an email I'll give you what you need and research anything you need thank you

Reports headaches and cognitive difficulty after changing processor settings and insomnia near a router, …

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Comments as: individual consumer a. The type(s) of wireless technology or RF/EMF source(s) involved: Mobile phones b. The nature, duration, frequency, and approximate timing of the reported exposure(s). nature:Uncertain. frequency:two times. duration:about 1 hour. timing:2026 c. The potential adverse health effects experienced. Headache.hard or nearly impossible to thinking or making plans. d. When potential adverse health effects first appeared relative to when exposure began and whether any changes in exposure coincided with potential adverse health effects. After 3-5 minuntes being exposure,during I set a rooted android phone CPU frequency limit to little cluster:300Mhz, big cluster :600Mhz, prime cluster: 800Mhz. e. Whether medical evaluation or treatment was sought, including any diagnoses received (if the respondent chooses to share them). No. f. Whether steps to reduce or eliminate exposure were taken and, if so, whether any subsequent changes in potential adverse health effects were observed. Mitigate after 10-20 seconds when I reverse the CPU limit set from app and close all switch from on to off, but not completely disappear, brain still fell slightly uncomfortable after 2 days. g. Any supporting documentation, including scientific reports, exposure measurements, or other relevant information. I speculate that it was caused by using an App to set the CPU frequency limit extremely low in the Android system, without the app adjusting the voltage to an appropriate value. I have had a similar experience when using a PC: under high load, the CPU voltage would drop to a value lower than the set value. Manually increasing the voltage in the BIOS can alleviate this situation, and I myself also manually raised the CPU voltage to reduce the adverse effects of the CPU on my body. m. Recommendations for future research or surveillance. It is suggest to measure the ability of test subjects to perform precision tasks when the human body is near a CPU operating at extremely high or extremely low frequencies, especially under different voltage settings. a. The type(s) of wireless technology or RF/EMF source(s) involved: Wi-Fi-2.4G (experience before 10 years, so is 10 years ago's technology ) b. The nature, duration, frequency, and approximate timing of the reported exposure(s). nature:May be EMF duration:Less than half an hour. frequency:one time approximate timing of the reported exposure: All day long, but especially during the time I go to bed start try to all asleep, the wifi router are less than 1 meter to my pillow. c. The potential adverse health effects experienced. Irritability.cannot fall asleep. d. When potential adverse health effects first appeared relative to when exposure began and whether any changes in exposure coincided with potential adverse health effects. After about half an hour. e. Whether medical evaluation or treatment was sought, including any diagnoses received (if the respondent chooses to share them). No. f. Whether steps to reduce or eliminate exposure were taken and, if so, whether any subsequent changes in potential adverse health effects were observed. Move wifi router to outside the door, behind a wall, distance change from less than 1 meter to more than 2.5 meters. Irritability nearly disapper. Finally I can fall a sleep.

Reports children’s headaches resolving after a school change and family symptoms recurring after a nearby…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Our children attended a school and there were two large 5G towers on school property. Our children would complain of headaches everyday while at school. We became very concerned and had to move them to a different school. At school now they are happy and I’ve not heard them complain of a headache while at school. Just recently they installed a 5G small cell right by our home. In December 2025. We have all been terribly ill and terrible headaches everyday while at home. We have also been experiencing insomnia and other symptoms. Our neighbors are also experiencing health issues. We just can’t seem to catch a break. Our home used to be our safe place and it is no longer our safe place. We are very sensitive to 5G and it’s affecting our quality of life. I pray the 5G small cell that was installed to send information from the smart meters in our neighborhood- I pray it can be removed. Bradenton, Florida.

Reports longstanding EMF sensitivity, language, orientation and sleep problems changing with exposure, de…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Thank you so much for this inquiry! I am a 62 yr old medically trained caucasian female and have been aware of my bodies EMF sensitivity for more than a couple decades. Initially I experienced thru cellular phone exposure inability to find certain words while speaking a sentence, rather disconcerting when conversing with clients. Another symptom was sudden spacial disorientation that differed from dizziness, it felt like I could not identify what was up and what was down inside the field of gravity. My sister is a German human doctor who became aware of EMF damage to her child thru proximity of its crib to a router, who nowadays successfully treats treatment resistant diseases of patients only if they agree first to clean up their EMF exposure in their home.She was the one saying my symptoms maybe caused by EMF. To test it I stopped exposure for several days and the symptoms disappeared. Then I exposed myself again and the symptoms came back. I did this three times with exact repeating results. Since then I use an RF meter (EMF acoustimeter Model AM-10, frequency response 200MHZ- 8 GHz, whenever I experience increasing inability to sleep inside for instance hotels or apartment buildings that have many routers installed within a short distance. I only use wired connections on my computer with its wifi capacity turned off, have moved in a rural area where my neighbors routers do not reach,limit my use of the cell phone, and protect myself with silver threaded EMF protective clothing and blankets when in high impact locations. Increasing inability to sleep is the main symptom today when exposed to wifi systems. I have grave concerns for children that are near non-stop exposed in their homes, schools, and am aware of multiple children developing leukemia around a 5G antenna. I am aware of lots including high quality research done on EMF including 5G impact on humans and animals incl bees, and hope you gather all that as a base for further actions to limit the damage sustained by many on a daily base if possible. Thank you again for opening up this very important and long overdue inquiry.

Reports cardiac and neurological symptoms after moving near a tower, subsequent homelessness and career l…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
As the youngest CEO founder age 25 at NYC 1 WTC of a global management advisory firm in biotech, agrotech, clean energy, and IT, the launch of safe technology underscored every strategy I developed and directed globally. 82 countries leading teams onsite Europe-Arab GCC-Africa-Asia; 28 countries remotely. However, the day I moved into a new Mpls apartment on the Mississippi on January 1, 2017 (a mere 50' from a mobile tower, hidden by trees--unbeknownst to me), directly facing my 6th fl apartment window, I suffered painful cardiac arrhythmia, an extremely"hot metal rod" piercing sensation in my chest, and collapsed. Insomnia, cognitive confusion, and severe migraines ensued -- for the first time in my life. For months, I stumbled around in pain; then it occurred to me to test Radio Frequency (RF) / Microwave Radiation by hiring an EMF physicist who, upon entering with his meter immediately stated: "My God! Readings are so high in your apartment, I cant stay to do the test." Begging him to stay to provide me with some metric of the radiation, he showed me his Acoustimeter AM-11 with RF off the top of his handheld device--he declined and left immediately; it took me a year, but I came to understand his decision justified his immediate evacuation for his safety. I became homeless this year, sleeping in friends' garages, basements, and my car. CEO advisor to royals in the Arab Gulf, including Almarai, a startup venture featured in the Financial Times of London as "among the most profitable in the world" for which HSBC in Mayfair London awarded my global strategy--the 1st non-oil Pan-Gulf global export strategy--the #1 "Transparency Award" in Saudi Arabia. Forced to move to a rural location seeking refuge, but untested RF is ubiquitous; therefore have been confined 10 years to living under a Chinese EMF 3G canopy in a 5' by 8' hallway 24/7, wearing hooded shielded clothing, mocked by uneducated local men who have told me to "take your meds" in mockery. Winner of $750,000 in elite US and European private scholarships and fellowships (New College Oxford, France, Italy); Exec Director, Scully Educational Foundation Board of Trustees, Ireland with Prime Minister; youngest National Delegate NY Democratic Presidential Convention Madison Sq Garden. RF cell phones, 5G towers, Wi-Fi routers, Bluetooth devices, microwave ovens ended my career early, as I collapse in their proximity. Dr Martin Paul sent me research on electromagnetic fields' effect on the body's voltage-gated calcium channels, which forces VGCCs open, flooding my system on being hit by RF--collapsing. Fluent in French, I called my attorney Marc-Pierre Stehlin for a briefing on Dr Dominique Belpomme's novel research on the unexamined effects of Electrohypersensitivity (EHS) and Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS), arguing that these conditions are genuine, man-made neurological disorders caused by non-ionizing radiation from wireless tech and power lines; Belpomme French oncologist and professor at Paris V University Hospital, is being cited as a possible nominee for a Nobel Prize. Low level non-ionizing radiation has cost me my career at its height, my freedom to move including taking a daily walk, the ability to fly on a plane. The US is unlikely to ever provide consumer protection or finance requisite research as long as industry capture dictates our 'scientific' findings; Robert Kennedy Jr may be the one to align us with leading countries which have issued precautionary warnings regarding EMFs, as cited by leaders Devra Davis Phd and Joel Moskowitz Phd.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
1. & 2. I am responding as: an individual 3a. Type of wireless or RF/EMF sources involved (e.g., mobile phones, Wi-Fi, smart meters…)Mobile phones, tablets and wi-fi 3b. Nature, duration, frequency, and approximate timing (e.g., years):22 years - since 8/3/2005 when I had ordered DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) for high speed internet over the telephone wire. I was on the landline when activated and felt strong warmth on ear, moved receiver to the other ear and that one also cooked. 3c. Adverse health effect(s) experienced:Weakness, brain fog, pain/pressure in ears/sinuses/head, nausea, blurred vision 3d. Time from first exposure to first appearance of adverse health effects; and did a change in exposure coincide with the onset of adverse effects:Immediately. It felt like a very bad sunburn inside my ears and sinuses. Walking down the street with overhead powerlines used to feel like pressure on the top of my head. When around wireless or too much electricity it can become pressure in my ears, sinuses and head to the point of pain. 3e. Was medical evaluation or treatment sought? (Optionally:) Was there a diagnosis?I went to my chiropractor who assured me that this was a real concern. The medical doctor said it was just allergies. There is the possibility of damaged nerves in the ears and sinuses that was mentioned. My nose is frequently cold. 3f. Were steps taken to reduce or eliminate exposure, and were there subsequent changes in the effects?Yes. Exposure caused discomfort and pain. Reduction of exposure reduced symptoms in time. 3g. Any supporting documentation? This includes Scientific Reports, exposure measurements, or other relevant information:No. Additional Details you would like to share about your experiences of adverse health effects you believe to be associated with exposure to wireless radiation or EMF's: B1a. Sources you experience as causing you Adverse Effects:Wireless, electric fields and computer screens. B1b. Sources you can sense, but don't seem to harm you:Mild pressure on my face, ears, sinuses and head. B1c. Sources you can use without sensing or being harmed:Household electrical appliances. B1d. Sources that seem to provide benefit (i.e., electrotherapy):Sometimes magnets and subtle energy products. It's trial and error to see if it helps or not. B2a. Health conditions you think may contribute to your sensitivity to EMFs including wireless:Possibly the nerves that may have been damaged during the incident on 8/3/05. Possibly sugar dysregulation issues like low or high blood sugar. B2b. Health conditions you don't necessarily associate with your sensitivity to EMFs including wireless, but might be relevant: B3. For each subquestion please list up to 5 drugs or therapies or home remedies (if any) B3a. That you recommend, as they helped you tolerate or recover from EMF exposure:Subtle energy products, shielding fabrics, sleeping in an unplugged metal 5th wheel with absorbant shielding materials around the bed. B3b. That you recommend, but you’re not positive that they help: B3c. That helped you but you don’t recommend. (e.g., the benefit did not last long or the side effects were too harmful): B3d. Treatments that had no effect:PEMF - Pulsed Electromagnetic field bed. I did too much and began to get dizzy. B3e. Treatments that made your sensitivity worse:65-74 B4. What is your age range?65-74 B5. What year did you become aware of your sensitivity to wireless radiation or electromagnetic fields?2005 B6. What country, state, province, or major city were you living in when you first noticed your sensitivity to wireless or electromagnetic fields?US, CA, Atascadero

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
About 4 years ago the local internet provider placed a 5G box on our property unbeknownst to our family. Over the last 4 years multiple family members have dealt with mystery health issues with symptoms including insomnia, vertigo, ticks, brain fog, headaches, joint pain, obsessive compulsive tendencies, buzzing in the ears, blurry vision, unexplained emotional distress in the youngest member of our family and more. We do what we can to mitigate, but it’s right there on our front lawn.
