Research & federal duties

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 parent and citizen. In the last 10 years, the number of cell towers in every area that I've lived have increased exponentially. Their negative effect on the community is much further reaching than the severely outdated research being used to create legislation, would suggest. Seeing the presence of towers kept me from buying homes for fear that the harmful EMF and microwave radiation would cause long term health issues for my family, we moved from a heavily populated area to a much more rural one and still we are plagued by their presence- they are all over the college campus near us, endangering all the students. No technology should be assumed safe until proven dangerous. Clearly big telecom does not want the truth about the harms of these wireless emitting devices to be discovered, otherwise they would be open and thorough about the research and wouldn't be making it so difficult for people to comment, effect legislation, or protest them. The harm that these antennas create NEEDS to be reviewed by regulatory agencies that are not captured. You (the government) owe it to your citizens to protect them, not to harm. Continuance of this head in the sand approach is harm, active harm. 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

I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure. NOW COME ON, WHY SUCH A WEIRD SHORT BOX TO TYPE IN?? And...if these fields were good, why do cell tower companies keep any public comment about anything BUT health? You can only fight them with OTHER comments, even though there is tons and tons of evidence...just plot cancer cases x cell tower locations!

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. Wireless radiation has affected our family and many friends we care about. Since a big cell phone tower and also smart meters have been installed in our neighborhood many people in our community begun experiencing tinnitus, poor sleep, and various body aches that did not diminished in intensity as time of exposure continued. Some of us have noticed relief of such symptoms when traveling to areas with lower level of EMFs exposure. Sadly the relief only occurs during the time away from home and returns to the same level of daily life disturbance when returning to our permanent dwellings. 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. It is simply unacceptable that anyone should disregard or dismiss health impacts of EMF exposure because when there are so many relevant cases impacting our communities throughout our country. 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.

Microwave radiation, 4G, 5G (also called Millimeter Wave/Directed Energy), RF radiation and EMF all create ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS that substantially generate health consequences on countless humans, mammals and other creatures in the vicinity of radiation, including plant life and trees. The range of these substantial environmental impacts have not been aggregated and published for public review. Life cannot reasonably be separated from the environment where it exists. Such a detailed study and publication is a government responsibility that must be fulfilled.

I absolutely believe wireless radiation is affecting us all negatively, especially children. Most people only have mild symptoms that can easily be attributed to many other causes. Only a smail number of people have debilitating symptoms , but the long term effects on everyone is a major contributor to the explosion of chronic disease. Please do your own research and work to decrease our collective exposure. If nothing else please read “Invisible Rainbow. We are making ourselves and all life forms, plants and animals, less healthy! My concern about this issue started when I realized that carrying my cellphone in my pocket was causing an increasing chronic itching.

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 parent, wife, and concerned individual. After living in our home for many years a tower was erected within 100 feet from our backyard. We didn’t love the appearance but didn’t think too much of it. Then, a while later they ‘modified’ the tower and we began experiencing brain fog, fatigue, and just overall unwell. We decided to move away from that house as we didn’t want our children exposed any longer. While trying to move, My husband was then diagnosed with stage 3 lymphoma at age 50. We definitely believe that the tower contributed to this occurrence. 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.

We are submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure. We are responding from the perspective of healthcare professionals. We are very concerned that industry regulations are out of date and current research indicating the documented harmful effects of wireless radiation are not being noticed. 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 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, parent, family member, caregiver, healthcare professional, researcher, advocate, concerned member of the public, or other]. Wireless radiation has affected me by bringing back my period, the issue goes away when I'm not exposed to it as much which took me awhile to figure out the problem was most noticeable when I went from a 4 G phone to a 5 G phone, and got a new modem and computer all within the same month. Reducing my exposure has helped, but being in a small apartment i'm not able to get very far from it.
