Research & federal duties

I think EMF and radiation exposure is something that society needs to be aware of. Towers and 5g radiation could be causing cancer to rise. I believe that it has not been studied enough and research is needed to expose the reality of the health effects it is creating.

Please restrict the input to researchers who are qualified. Opening this for public comments can create a false sense of understanding if too many people believe their conspiracies will be heard on an equal level to scrutinized data and reaserch. This is irresponsible.

I am a mother of four children, and our family moved into our home on October 1, 2025, approximately 0.2 miles (1,056 feet) from an active cell tower. Since moving here, we have noticed a significant worsening of health concerns within our household, including severe brain fog, frequent migraines, insomnia, difficulty concentrating, and emotional and behavioral dysregulation in our children. One of my daughters also has a serious autoimmune condition involving multiple relapses, hospitalizations, and extensive medical treatment. I worry about whether prolonged environmental exposure could be affecting her health or contributing to immune dysregulation. Beyond our current symptoms, I am deeply concerned about the potential long-term health consequences of continuous RF/EMF exposure, particularly cancer risk, neurological development, reproductive health, immune function, and the cumulative effects of exposure beginning in childhood. I recognize that there is no established causal connection between the nearby tower and our family’s health concerns, nor do we have evidence of cancer related to this exposure. However, the changes we have observed since moving here, combined with the uncertainty surrounding some long-term health outcomes, make me believe further investigation is important. I urge HHS to prioritize independent, long-term studies of residential exposure near cell towers, including cancer incidence, neurological and cognitive health, sleep disturbances, reproductive health, and autoimmune conditions. Families deserve transparent exposure measurements, continued evaluation of safety standards, and research that follows children over many years.

I believe 5G is depleting my ferritin levels, which causes dizziness/headache/brain fog, etc.. Please study it. Thank you!

I have been wanting the answers to these questions for many years. There is so much proof around us but yet where are the studies and informed consent with putting all of these towers around us? And that’s just barely scratching the surface of how and what is affecting the population. We need to know the facts.

I would like to know if there’s an increased cancer rate for those people living near electric transmission lines and substations. Also, if there is a risk living near cell phone towers, I live near the Southern California Edison Serrano substation in Orange California where there is a 500 kW transmission line. This substation is still expanding and transmits power 30 miles south to San Onofre, California. There are also several cell phone towers in the same area near our community. In the past few years, I have noticed that several neighbors have died of cancer and many more are coming down with cancer. None of these neighbors smoked and most were very health-conscious. Please investigate as to whether EMFs are causing cancer.

I am 36, married and have 3 young kids. We moved into a townhome with a cell tower right across the street about 3 months ago. Since that time, we have noticed an array of symptoms in our family- anxiety, numbness and tingling, trouble sleeping, chest pains, and trouble breathing. I am apart of multiple support groups and I cannot tell you how many people have talked about a cancer diagnosis after living or working close to one of these cell towers. We plan to move in a couple weeks. We as a nation have to acknowledge that unfortunately we are not winning the war on cancer. We have to look at what has changed in the last 10+ years? No more land lines, cell phones in EVERYONE’S pocket, 5G towers popping up left and right, WiFi and Bluetooth EVERYWHERE. Please do research, study these devices and technology and how they impact cells. Find places where multiple people suddenly start receiving cancer diagnosis and look at their environment. THANK YOU, truly, for bringing light to this situation, I’m praying there will be regulations and changes <3

My opinion on this topic is as follows; the opinion of the general public has no bearing on the actual safety of electromagnetic radiation. Evidence developed by qualified physicists, biomedical researchers, epidemiologists, and other scientists, and subsequently published, peer reviewed and replicated is the only ( repeat, only) valid input on this topic. A request for public comment on this topic is counterproductive and naive. Also, note that the privacy disclaimer states ‘do not submit personally identifiable information’, immediately after requiring PII to respond. This is obviously self contradictory.

Please do more research into the health effects of EMF. Our family had had to wire up our house with bo wifi, use faraday cages, and get rid of utility smart meters because it caused massive problems for me with dizziness and head pressure to the point I could not stand. I cannot fly because the massive amount of wifi trapped in the airplane acts like a faraday cage and makes my head feel like it is exploding. This is a REAL issue affecting way more people than you know. As it took me quite a while to figure out the connection and many people never know why they are feeling this way. As wifi towers proliferate the world becomes harder and harder for me to live in.

Please do extensive research on 5g radiation. I'm not a conspiracy theorist but I have relatives who can literally feel the radiation from some of the higher frequency fields. In any case the induction of 5G has not had anywhere near sufficient research done before it was released on the public, and is being driven by corporate greed as usual. I'm all for corporate greed as long as it doesn't harm the general population. 5G could definitely be doing that.
