The commenter reports recovery from prolonged illness after switching to wired devices, objects to loss o…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I was sick for 8 months and couldn't hardly get out of the bed, had memory problems, and fatigue. I found a video of a red headed lady named Dana Ashley called, "An inconvenient truth square in your face". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9bdU_uw2Dc She had the same issues, but she found out it was the Wi-Fi in the house and from the phone and computers causing the sickness. The video was eye opening with one expert after another and doctor after another giving hard facts showing how it hurts the body. I wired everything with ethernet cords, at the time got a 3G cell phone, and I was completely well in a matter of a couple of weeks. I no longer can have a cell phone because they turned off my 3G phone and are only offering 5G phones. This is very harmful to the human body. These new cell phones put off 250X the legal limit of all but two countries - the US and Canada according to my meter and the data in the video mentioned above. It is deadly and almost nobody knows that it is giving them cancer and other sicknesses because the mainstream is keeping the truth tightly under wraps and killing people of all ages.

The commenter reports worsening insomnia and other symptoms after meter installation and relocation, and …

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am writing as a patient who is concerned about the damage. All wireless radiation is doing to my own body on a Cellular level. I have experienced chronic insomnia which has worsened in particular after a smart meter installed on my home several years ago and also after we moved, and we have a Cell tower close to us and now or more reliant on Wi-Fi. I have definitely noticed worsening in my condition such as nights without any sleep, agitation, nervous system, disorientation, migraines, and chest palpitations. I’m also writing as a member of the public who is concerned over the well-being of all humans and in particular are most vulnerable, which would be children and the elderly as far as I know there has not been a long-term studies on human health and wireless radiation, which is increasing faster than studies could even keep up with if there were any valid studies that weren’t run by special interest groups. I urge you to rain and cell towers and smart meters at the very least and educate the public about turning off Wi-Fi in the evenings or whenever possible to use a hardwired system.

I've been having issues with EMR since Longmont CO installed their Nextlight high speed internet in 2016. I was waking from a dead sleep with heart palpitations. I came across a documentary on 5G and wireless radiation, they said turn off your wifi to find out if you have issues and I did, the change was so profound, had the best sleep ever in over 15 years. But my husband didn't want it shut off nightly due to work computer updates at night. So I resorted to harmonizers that did help for many years until they put in their Smart Electrical meters all over our community despite my open opposition to our city council for like 4 years, We did get an opt out option with a hefty fee, but all of my neighbors have gotten them. Now I can hardly raise my kids and am exhausted and not able to function somedays especially the days I have to go to Boulder for errands. My labs with my functional doctor showed my thyroid and all were normal then within a year of the meters it want to Hashimoto's Thyroid disease to being even more pre diabetic. I had an episode where I had to take antibiotics for dental issues and ended up with an insanely itchy all over full body rash that would not go away. I resorted to shutting off the wifi and within 10 minutes the itching stopped and the rash began to fade. I figured it must be my biome out of balance and since my testing showed high levels of mold in my system I figured the mold was running rampant. I currently have a rash on my face from our puppy scratching me that won't heal and has been migrating around my face for two months. I don't want to see a doctor and get antibiotics again. I sadly had to get a new phone and I feel like it is why my face won't heal. There is a definite pattern, if I have to text a bunch when I'm away from my ethernet wired computer my face starts to itch and burn more. We took a drive a few weeks ago and the first day my face felt great, hardly any cell towers where we were driving, the next day it was a raging mess with the towers on alternating sides of the road every few miles. Also on that same stretch hardly any insects on our windshield despite being in a national grassland with shoulders of the road that had not been mowed. I remember when I was a kids roads like that would get your windshield a good coating of bug guts. Another trip driving home from Big Sky MT I got sick from their wireless infrastructure at the resort with their towers at the tops of their chair lifts, I would feel what side of the interstate the cell tower was on based on the sharp pains in my head, I would normally wear a faraday beanie but had given it to my son who was 9 at the time who was suffering massive headache and feeling sick as well. He is also the kid who gets massive headaches and nose bleeds when they do testing at school which is the only time they use computers at his school, a room full of wireless laptops makes my son sick. Talking to the front desk gal my son was one of many kids who fall into this pattern of missing school and getting sick when they do this testing. I've attempted to educate the Directors of the school on this but they refuse and the last one even said there was no science to back my claims. In this day and age you can always find anything to back your beliefs even if they are not true. My husband is mostly in denial it is making me sick and complains whenever I try to buy anything to help myself and refuses to let me hire a building biologist to minimize dirty electricity and reduce my exposure. So I've basically lost all hope of every feeling good unless I get a divorce and since I can't hardly be out in public due to exposure from all the wireless infrastructure and now traffic cameras all over I can't work and leave. I don't know why you supposed leaders keep ignoring us Human Canaries in the EMF mines of society who are telling you it's making us sick. The ones who notice how when they install more wireless tech, the insect populations take a nose dive, like the bee's for example. The ones who physically feel it and suffer almost daily from it. Now I have this insane insomnia too that is not doing me any favors. Whenever there is weather forecasted I can feel the HARP shit that is charing the atmosphere and feel literally microwaved in the morning. Like I was with the next light internet. The things I used to use to help minimize its impact no longer works with each additional layer of Radiation you keep adding to this world. Faraday clothing helps but it's kind of ugly and expensive. You must fund the studies there is enough evidence from people like me to warrant such studies. And in the meantime but a halt to more being installed to avoid the continuation of the mass die off we are seeing of many much smaller species. The damage we are causing to our children needs to stop if we want to continue as a species.

The commenter reports illness around routers and cordless phones, improvement with wired connections, and…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I was an office administrator, sat next to servers and routers for years. I noticed if I spent the whole weekend in my bedroom (shared rental) I'd feel unwell. I retired in 2020 and got really sick like I was being poisoned. Doctors couldn't figure it out and I was having thoughts that I'd have to leave this world if it continued. An EMF expert came to my home and said my 2 cordless phones were putting out 60,000mw of RF each. I start feeling sick at 60mw. At night, the house router was on the other side of the wall, a few feet from my head and he said with the smart TV at my feet, it was like baking in a microwave oven. I got rid of cordless phones, hard-wired my devices and changed to ethernet and felt a lot better. However, I can't go to libraries, concerts, church, some restaurants and coffee shops with lots of RF or strong routers. I get dizzy, my energy goes down, then I feel nausea and like my whole body is being poisoned. I visited a friend in the hospital and was sick within 15 minutes and had to leave after 20 mins and I was weaving as I walked out, I was so sick. I went to a talk in a library and started feeling sick. Another woman told me she was feeling sick too. I looked up and saw there was a huge wi-fi router above our heads. After about 10 mins after we moved away, we started feeling better. There was a coffee shop about 20 of us met at, and 5 of us would get sick because the router was running such high wi-fi frequency. It's very sad and depressing for me to not be able to go to the senior center to play cards or hear talks and I often can't go to card games. I can't take a bus, train or airplane trip with everyone's cell phones and the RF on the vehicles. Can’t ride in friend’s EV cars and so I haven’t been able to take a trip for 15 years. My life is very limited now. I can no longer work in offices and am in financial hardship because there are few places I can work because most require being near wi-fi equipment. I do some caregiving, but I often feel sick if I have to work close to a router and their phones and computers. I’m 72yo and it’s taking a toll on my finances and physical and emotional energy.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am personally affected by EMFs, RFs, and Wireless Radiation exposure. I go through great pains to avoid over exposure. My symptoms include nerve pain in my head, ear, hand, and arm while using a smart phone, as well as dizziness, fatigue, and other sensations of disorientation and random pain in my body. I have had to design my life around not using a mobile phone most of the time. I also have my house hard-wired. I am concerned that if infrastructure does not continue to support wired internet connections, I may need to move or go without internet. I also have vague symptoms that may or may not be connected to EMF's, but generally my symptoms improve when I go to the backcountry wilderness areas for hiking or camping. I am greatly concerned about the affect of wireless technology on all children, wildlife, and ecological systems. I believe this needs to be vigorously studied before implementing wireless advancements across the board. I also feel strongly that other cable/wired options should be made permanently available to all who need or desire them. The standards of safety for wireless phones should be re-evaluated and enforced, and transparency related to affects of EMFs and wireless technology on biological life should be made readily available to the public. There should be a system to evaluate the placement of cell phone towers to create the least amount of harm. Also if harm occurs, people should be compensated for injury, illness, or loss. Thank you for your time and attention.

The commenter describes sensitivity, insomnia and anxiety associated with Wi-Fi and devices, and difficul…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I wanted to offer my experience with EMF sensitivity. Prior to 2019 I did not have WIFI at my house. I owned an IPHONE but had very limited cell service in the rural area I lived in Arkansas and only used my IPHONE on my lunch hour at work. In 2019 I moved to California to help my daughter out with a new baby and lived in an apartment which had 24/7 WIFI and my daughters house also had 24/7 WIFI. I developed insomnia and anxiety to such a degree that after a year I moved back to AR. I later got married and my husband needs WIFI for his research but we unplug the WIFI box at night. Now, whenever I experience anxiety I am unable to look at my phone for more than 15 minutes at a time because it increases the anxiety. Also, at a doctor’s office I went to recently, they had a large TV in the waiting room with a movie playing and I was extremely uncomfortable with what I can only imagine was EMF exposure. We do not watch TV at home and only watch an occasional movie due to my sensitivity. The rural area we now live in does not offer landline phones so I have no other choice but to use WIFI.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I strongly support a thorough and independent review of human and environmental exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs), radiofrequency (RF) radiation, and wireless radiation. I personally suffer from the radio waves from wireless devices. It is uncomfortable. Our exposure to wireless radiation has increased dramatically with the expansion of cell phones, Wi-Fi, smart meters, antennas, 5G infrastructure, connected appliances, and other wireless technologies. Yet questions remain about the potential effects of continuous, cumulative, and long-term exposure, particularly when people may be exposed twenty-four hours a day in their homes, schools, workplaces, and communities. I believe public health standards should be based not only on whether RF radiation produces heating effects, but should also continue to evaluate research concerning possible biological effects associated with long-term, low-level exposure. This review should consider children, pregnant women, older adults, people who report sensitivity to electromagnetic exposure, and individuals who may receive unusually high cumulative exposure. It should also examine potential effects on animals, birds, insects, pollinators, plants, trees, and other living organisms. Human health cannot be considered entirely separately from the health of the environment in which we live. I encourage the government to support independent research that is free from industry influence; examine cumulative exposure from multiple wireless sources; evaluate whether present exposure standards adequately address modern technologies and long-term exposure; and consider practical ways to reduce unnecessary exposure. Where reasonable alternatives exist, people should also retain the ability to choose lower-exposure options—including wired connections and non-transmitting utility meters—without being penalized for doing so. Wireless technology provides important benefits, but technological convenience should not replace careful scientific evaluation and prudent public-health protections. When scientific uncertainty exists and exposure is widespread, a precautionary approach is appropriate. I respectfully request that this review be comprehensive, transparent, independent, and attentive to both human health and the health of the natural environment. I deliberately made this **firm but scientifically defensible** rather than saying that all EMF or RF exposure is already proven to harm every living cell. That will make your comment harder to dismiss and, in my view, more effective.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
We are exposed to unacceptable levels of EMF short-wave pollution. People have experienced headaches, dizziness, inability to function, fatigue, heart issues, insomia,tumors, cancer and more. These cell towers with 5G and other toxic EMF exposures are sick. Even it you do not experience the above knowingly, you are still exposed and building health issues. Wildlife, which includes plants are also negatively affected. In other words, life itself is attacked by these EMF non-ionizing radiation. The concept that only heat generates injury was incorrect. There are safe ways to improve communication, such as fiber optics. In 1996 Pres. Clinton exempted the communication industry from health, safety and environmental issues connected to this industry. That non-regulation needs to be stopped. This industry is out-of-control. Cell towers are built near schools, which is an absolute travesty. We are entitled to a safe environment without rogue industries such as the above operating unregulated, immune to lawsuits for the health and environmental destruction they cause. I appreciate your concern for the public. Another issue involves geo-engineering. The public is now noticing the obvious spraying of chemicals and maybe more in the atmosphere. Whatever is sprayed is pulled down to the earth via gravity. A life on the planet is adversely harmed, and we are seeing the results. We are told the spraying is for ameliorating "climate change", which makes no sense. This spraying needs to be stopped. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
