ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I believe this topic needs researched without hindrance. I personally have experienced side effects and found when the wireless is turned off, I sleep better. There is something there that needs to be explored and exposed. It should be treated no different than the warning labels on cigarette packages or prescription drugs.

The commenter reports headaches from certain mobile phones and discomfort in electric cars, and requests …

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
EMF I got headaches with AT&T GSM phones because their frequency is hard. It can go through the elevator. I think it’s the 851 you need to do something about that. Verizon seems to be better the CDMA. Electric cars are hard to sit in not even for a few minutes because I can feel the radiation here measure it above 3milliguass and you need to have standards to make it go below1,2 milligauss the average house. EMF is mostly 0.2 or up 0.6 in American Home so you cannot have a car which is near high power lines 5 milliguass, there’s a big battery below the kids seats, adult seat, senior seats Call me for details , do testing of EV cars

The commenter supports scientific study of EMF exposure levels and consistent evidence-based health regul…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
It’s important to continue to study things that seem “invisible” in ways that are scientific proof of what levels of EMF are ok and what levels are more Risky and why. At the same time it’s also Important to apply these same SCIENTIFIC principles to all regulations that affect the health of all citizens. Disregarding issues that are Known while chasing things like this isn’t helpful.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
From the book The Non-tinfoil Guide to EMFs by Nicholas Pineault: As Martin Blank, PhD reports in Overpowered: since 1990, Lai has been tracking the studies of the health effects of RF radiation on humans published around the world. He has hundreds of studies in his data base. Approximately 30% of the studies were funded by the wireless industry and 70% are funded by other sources that are presumably more independent. Of the industry-funded studies, 27% demonstrated a biological effect in human resulting from RF exposure vs. 68% for the independents. Lai explains that “a lot of the studies being done right now are purely as PR tools for the industry.” The US & Canada FCC limit for RF radiation is 61.4 Volts/meter. The next closest is Belgium (21), Russia, China, Italy, Luxembourg, & Switzerland (6), and Austria (.02). Sleep disturbances resulting in fatigue can occur from as low as .047 V/m. REM sleep is affected at 13.72 V/m. Male fertility is affected as low as .036 V/m with testosterone being negatively affected at 43.42 V/m. Brain function is affected at .14 V/m (headaches, behavioral problems), .55 V/m (memory), 1.94 V/m (blood-brain barrier leakage), 11.07 (oxidative stress on the cornea), and 13 V/m (oxidative stress on the brain). Heart function is affected at .05 V/m (cardio vascular problems in general), 1.19 V/m (calcium metabolism in the heart), and 20 V/m (blood pressure, heart rate). Children are affected starting at .11 V/m (headaches, inattention), .33 V/m (ADHD), .78 V/m (memory), .87 V/m (leukemia), 2.17 V/m (kidney development problems), and 25 V/m (bone growth problems). This is going to be the fate of mankind wherever 5G is used. I wouldn’t want that on my conscience.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am reporting significant physical and neurological symptoms that I associate with exposure to 5G and other electromagnetic fields (EMF's) I feel as though I can sense nearby cell towers before I actually see them. I experience what feels like electricity running through my body, severe headaches, nausea, and electrical sensations traveling down my arm and occurring in areas where I have metal hardware in my body. I also can experience difficulty concentrating, brain fog, and profound exhaustion that interfere with my abililty to function normally. These experiences are distressing and affect my overall quality of life. My medical history is complex and includes dysautonomia, MCAS, TBI, chronic inflammation and I do believe this has made it much worse, severe osteoporosis with multiple vertebral fractures, and persistently low iron stores. I have also experienced significant environmental sensitivities and have a history of mold exposure including stachybotrys. I am particularly concerned about the relationship between my environmental exposures, neurological symptoms, and overall health. Given my persistently low iron levels and exhaustion, I am concerned that environmental factors may be contributing to my declining health. I recognize that I cannot establish EMFs as the cause of my iron deficiency without scientific evidence, but I believe these concerns deserve further investigation. I urge HHS to support independent, rigorous research into radiofrequency radiation, 5G infrastructure, and other electromagnetic exposures. Research should examine neurological symptoms, headaches, nausea, sensory disturbances, concentration difficulties, fatigue, individual susceptibility, and potential effects in people with complex chronic illnesses. I also encourage researchers to investigate whether reported symptoms correlate with objectively measured exposure levels and whether there are identifiable biological mechanisms that could explain the experiences. My goal is to help advance research that provides clear answers about potential health effects and appropriate public health protections.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I certainly believe this should be looked into. It is all around us, even if we choose not to use it. I know it offers a lot, but it's not worth it if it adds to all the things that affect our health; especially the children. I know people that this has affected and I'm not well. I wonder if wifi and 5-G is my problem. Doctors can't find anything. Please look into it, and please help the people and not the companies. They will find another way, they always do!

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Re: RF/EMF Exposure, Human Health, Directed-Energy Technologies, Environmental Effects, and Institutional Accountability 1 History and Unanswered Questions Since 2012, I have experienced persistent, unexplained physical symptoms that have resulted in years of medical visits, diagnostic testing, and brain scans. My primary complaint has been a vibration- or frequency-like sensation throughout my body. For several years, these episodes occurred predominantly at night, sometimes with such regularity that I could practically set my watch by them. The sensations also followed me to different locations rather than appearing limited to one particular environment. During this period, I experienced difficulty walking straight, difficulty speaking correctly, and blurred vision. These symptoms resembled signs of a stroke, yet my evaluations did not identify a stroke or establish an explanation for what I was experiencing. I have continued to undergo medical monitoring and still experience frequency-like sensations and tinnitus in one ear. The tinnitus becomes louder when I experience the vibrations. I am asking HHS to recognize that persistent, unexplained symptoms deserve serious medical attention, objective investigation, and research. I respectfully request that HHS: 1. Encourage improved medical evaluation and documentation of persistent unexplained neurological and sensory symptoms, including appropriate investigation of potential medical and environmental contributing factors. 2. Identify research gaps in current diagnostic and environmental assessment methods that may limit the ability to investigate these symptoms without prematurely assuming or dismissing a cause. Children, Schools, and Wireless Technology Prioritize research on children's long-term RF exposure, including potential effects on neurological development, sleep, cognition, and other relevant health outcomes. . Their developing bodies and potentially long lifetime exposure make independent research on children's health an important priority. 3. Directed-Energy Technologies and Unexplained Symptoms I ask HHS to address the potential health implications of directed-energy technologies, including relevant radiofrequency and microwave exposures. Public discussion of unusual neurological symptoms among diplomatic personnel, often referred to as Havana syndrome, has raised questions about possible causes, including directed energy. These cases do not establish a single cause for all reported symptoms, but they underscore the importance of rigorous investigation when unusual health complaints arise. I identify as a targeted individual because of my personal experiences and concerns. I recognize that my symptoms alone cannot establish deliberate targeting or identify a particular technology. Nevertheless, I believe concerns involving possible technological exposure should be evaluated fairly, objectively, and through appropriate scientific methods. I respectfully request that HHS coordinate with relevant federal agencies and independent experts to: 1. Review evidence concerning the biological effects of relevant RF and microwave exposures, including high-intensity or pulsed exposures where appropriate. 2. Establish appropriate medical and scientific protocols for investigating suspected exposure-related injuries. 3. Improve documentation of unexplained neurological symptoms and potential environmental exposures. 4. Distinguish verified findings from hypotheses that remain unconfirmed. 5. Ensure that credible concerns receive appropriate investigation without presuming a cause in advance. The public deserves a credible process for investigating suspected harm, including the possibility of emerging or specialized technologies, without premature conclusions in either direction. 4. Environmental Health: Wildlife and Vegetation. Coordinate with appropriate environmental and scientific agencies to identify research gaps and evaluate real-world RF exposure biological, behavioral, reproductive, or developmental effects in wildlife and vegetation Corporate, Government, and Military Accountability Promote independent scientific review, transparent disclosure of relevant evidence and research limitations, and appropriate conflict-of-interest safeguards for studies used to assess the health and safety of RF/EMF and directed-energy technologies. 2. Support clear procedures for independent investigation, interagency coordination, and accountability when credible concerns arise regarding possible exposure-related injuries, including concerns involving corporate, government, military, or contractor activities, consistent with applicable privacy, security, and legal requirements. Public confidence depends on independent verification, transparent methods, and a credible process for addressing legitimate concerns. No institution should be exempt from appropriate scientific scrutiny, and no allegation should be treated as established without supporting evidence.

The commenter acknowledges wireless connectivity benefits but expresses concern about health threats and …

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Recent decades have experienced an unparalleled development in wireless communication technologies from mobile telephony, and Wi-Fi. The introduction of 5G and 6G technology across the US is expected to bring new opportunities for citizens and businesses, through faster internet browsing, streaming and downloading, as well as through better connectivity. However, 6G and 5G, along with 3G and 4G, with which it will operate in parallel for several years, also pose threats to human health. We need a better understanding of health effects of this technology such as what European countries have been doing for years!

Where to even begin... 30 years ago cancer was listed as number 10 on the list of mortality causes and today in 2026 it is listed in the number one spot as the top way someone will likely die. One in three people in our country today have cancer. Why is this? It only seems logical that the only thing that has changed within the last 30 years is the introduction of electromagnetic fields of radiation into our lives 24/7 365 via cell phone cell phone towers and Wi-Fi. Shortly after my son was born I had crippling pains in my GI tract that took years to finally realize it was from using my computer with Wi-Fi. After hardwiring my computer to ethernet I no longer have these GI issues at all and can comfortably use the computer. I did an experiment of keeping my cell phone turned off for several weeks not using it at all and just from doing that for the first time ever I had absolutely no PMS symptoms at all and absolutely no issues with my ovulation. Upon turning the cell phone back on immediately I started getting a headache and having chest pains. Just getting away to smaller towns where there is still LTE towers I feel so much better lighter happier more energetic and then immediately when I return to the city where all the 5G towers are I get tired fatigued irritable headache heart palpitations... The ONLY thing that has provided me with relief (besides avoidance) are BluShield devices. Without BluShield devices I could not function and would be bedridden. I long for the days when I could go to dinner be out and about in public go to the ballet go to the city to the art galleries etc and be able to live a normal life without being in so much pain and discomfort because of all of the cell phone towers Wi-Fi and cell phones being used. I'm seriously looking into moving to the national radio quiet zone near the green Bank observatory to get some relief. Sadly, though, it appears that school there is starting to use Wi-Fi now so it will be curious to study the results of that for example if the kids are now absent many more days due to illnesses as they were not sick before the introduction of wi-fi.. to look into the numbers of that in some kind of study and to study the connection between EMF and the horrifying rise in autism and ADHD to look and compare communities such as the Amish who do not use technology and their cancer rates to the rest of the country where cell phones and Wi-Fi are used.. I desperately want to go back to the days such as in the 90s where all we had was landline or even the early 2000s where it was hardwired internet I just want to feel good and have energy and be able to connect with the world and people without having to put myself at risk of getting cancer to do so. Unfortunately, 99.99% of the population seems absolutely addicted to their cell phones. If they can't give up their addictions even if it means they are destroying their health maybe a viable solution would be to install giant BluShield devices right by cell phone towers... "Where there is risk there must be choice" but, unfortunately, we have no choice because cell phone towers and the radiation they admit is everywhere. You simply cannot get away from it. We need to be able to have a choice! We need places/ cities where there are no cell phone towers and no wi-fi so people can make a CHOICE for themselves whether they want to live in a safe zone or not a safe zone- we need those choices!

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
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, healthcare professional, researcher, advocate, and a concerned member of the public. I believe this issue should be addressed because our town is littered with cell towers at every school, flock cameras, and surrounded by solar fields on all sides. It definitely feels like a war in which the "people" are defenseless. The cell towers are on top of our stadium lights at the high-school. Every game we are forced to sit next to theses not knowing what harm may come. Headaches during the game are routine for me and I have began to wonder if the towers are having any effect. 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!
