Reports altered wrist sensations with a wearable tracker and asks that wearables be examined.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I think it is extremely important what you are doing and to look into wearables as well things like health tracking wrist bands and smart watches, I notice a marked change in sensation in my wrist when I have a wearable health tracker on.

Raises vaccine mandates, alleged adverse effects and compensation, rather than providing an EMF exposure …

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Mr. Kennedy, for those of us who were forced to get the Covid vaccination and the booster, or else we lose our jobs, should be eligible for a reparation. We had no choice! I feel that the implications to our health are worth a mention. Where is our help. For someone to have to choose between a vaccine or lose a career you’ve been in for 20+ years, is disheartening and just plain immoral. I personally have suffered side effects and wish I didn’t have to choose. And still today, we are forced to get the flu vaccination or same scenario, lose our jobs. It’s just not right. Thank you, Tonya McCoy

A teacher describes migraines and autoimmune illness, requests independent research into susceptibility a…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am a 51-year-old public school educator living with chronic autoimmune illness. I am submitting this comment because I believe the potential health consequences of prolonged exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs) and radiofrequency (RF) radiation deserve serious, independent scientific investigation, particularly among individuals with autoimmune and inflammatory conditions. I experience chronic inflammation, migraines, fatigue, and episodes of significant physical malaise. Over the years, I have observed that some of my most severe symptoms appear to coincide with environments containing extensive wireless infrastructure. In 2020, during the COVID-19 lockdowns, new 5G cellular towers were installed in my area. During this period, I began experiencing frightening physical symptoms while traveling along interstate highways. On multiple occasions, I experienced episodes of apparent loss of consciousness while riding as a passenger. I also experienced painful bladder spasms that seemed to occur when traveling near certain cellular towers. These experiences became so debilitating that I struggled to travel on interstate highways. I purchased a silver-infused garment marketed for electromagnetic shielding and began wearing a Q-Link pendant, which I continue to wear daily. My career as a public school teacher raises additional concerns about occupational exposure and children’s health. Today’s classrooms are saturated with wireless technology. In my school, every student has a chromebook, and each classroom contains two enormous interactive smartboards. Wireless networks operate continuously throughout the school day, with dozens of devices communicating simultaneously. I experience migraines, inflammation, fatigue, and general malaise that interfere with my ability to function comfortably throughout the school day. Teachers spend approximately seven to eight hours daily in these environments, often for decades. Children spend much of their developmental years surrounded by wireless infrastructure. I question whether sufficient independent, long-term research has examined the cumulative effects of these exposures, particularly among individuals with existing inflammatory, neurological, or autoimmune conditions. I respectfully request that HHS prioritize the following areas of investigation: 1. Autoimmune and inflammatory responses: Investigate whether chronic RF exposure influences inflammatory pathways, immune regulation, oxidative stress, or symptom severity in individuals with autoimmune disease. 2. Neurological and autonomic symptoms: Examine reported associations between environmental RF exposure and migraines, dizziness, loss of consciousness, bladder dysfunction, fatigue, and other neurological or autonomic disturbances. 3. Individual susceptibility: Investigate whether certain populations, including individuals with chronic illness, experience different physiological responses to environmental electromagnetic exposure. 4. Cumulative exposure in schools: Conduct independent assessments of RF exposure in classrooms containing numerous student devices, wireless access points, and interactive smartboards. Evaluate both actual exposure levels and long-term health outcomes. 5. Existing safety standards: Reevaluate whether current RF exposure guidelines adequately address chronic exposure, evolving wireless technologies, and potential biological effects beyond established thermal mechanisms. 6. Exposure reduction: Investigate practical strategies for reducing unnecessary wireless emissions in educational settings, including wired connections and alternatives to continuous wireless connectivity. 7. Research integrity: Ensure that studies are independently funded, transparently conducted, and designed to investigate potential risks without predetermined conclusions. I recognize that personal observations do not establish scientific causation and that existing research has not consistently demonstrated that symptoms attributed to electromagnetic exposure are caused by RF radiation. Yet, the symptoms are real, and individuals reporting them deserve serious medical attention and rigorous scientific investigation. The absence of conclusive evidence of harm should not be treated as proof that every potential long-term health consequence has been adequately investigated. As an educator, I am particularly concerned about the widespread adoption of wireless technologies in schools without sufficiently examining possible consequences for vulnerable students and employees. I'm not advocating the abandonment of technology, but for responsible research, transparency, appropriate precaution, and informed public policy. People living with chronic illnesses should not have to choose between participating fully in society and protecting their health. Our technological capabilities should never advance faster than our willingness to investigate their potential consequences.

Expresses concern that wireless signals passing through physical obstacles may harm people.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Communications between two distant physical devices on wireless platform streams through strong magnetic waves. Infrared connection though wireless is partially disrupted when there is a physical medium in between, this points to the fact that, their magnetic communication is blocked. Areas where there are taller buildings and skyscrapers often experience network interruptions due to the blockage of communication by the physical structures. Therefore, strong and fast wireless communication being experience as a faster rate even after observing many physical blockages is a very serious problem that needs to be addressed as many human beings in this conversation used perceived as physical blockages has a serious impact on our lives. Thanks.

Describes a father’s cognitive changes and seizures after an MRI, with unresolved questions about their c…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Back in the summer of 2021, my 75 yr old father was having headaches. The VA scheduled him for an MRI in Dec 2021. We are still not sure what happened to him during the MRI and they never admitted anything happened. But when my father came out of the MRI he was suddenly childlike. It started to slowly get worse. On 1/26/2022 my father had a major seizure and was taken to the hospital by ambulance. He was throwing up and completely out of it. The hospital notes say he had encephalitis in the front of his brain--right where the headaches had been and the MRI scanned. Over the course of a year and a half, he had 2 more seizures. They could never understand why and ruled out epilepsy. He would go to the hospital get some steroids and the swelling would go down and he would seem more normal. Then the swelling would come back, his behavior would worsen and he would have a seizure. They told us his childlike behavior was signs of dementia and disregarded our questions about how he completely changed after the MRI. Finally about 2023, he started getting better and now except for some rare memory loss, he is completely better. He has no recollection of that time.

Reports family nosebleeds, cognitive symptoms and rashes near power lines and towers.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
This is great I have been wanting to say something for years. After moving in with my now husband about 9 years ago things started getting weird. He lives by the power lines and 3 huge towers. The nosebleeds were significantly high with my twins. But it wasn't until 5g was out that I noticed a huge change. Mental fog. Teeth decay. Weird spots on our skin. Rashes that match with radiation poisoning. Symptoms that mask as other things. "Allergies" etc.
