Attributes ear pain and hair loss to meters, Wi-Fi and electronics, describes mitigation and financial ba…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Hello, Before I start, I want to say that I had my whole eardrum replaced in 87 as a doc flushed my ear out so hard, the whole side of my neck was killing me and had black stuff coming from ear and needed a new ear drum. Living on a farm in Gorham Maine yrs. ago, I was in our garden and someone was doing something on the 1 bedroom house I was renting and didn't think much of it till every 2 mins. I was getting stabbing sharp pain in my eardrum and didn't know why. My cat was looking around at nothing going on. This went on for a while till I found out the landlord allowed a smart meter on house. When I learned about Analog, I had it removed and problem was solved. Now I live in a town called Westbrook Maine, the week I moved in, I had meter changed to Digital, they claim they can't get parts for Analog which is another lie. They can put Satellite's in space but no parts for meters. The Public is beyond sick of being lied too. I have a neighbor downstairs who keeps Wifi on 24/7 and a neighbor to the left of me doing the same. I have no Wifi in my Apt and everything is hard wired, yet I have been losing my hair since moving in. I can feel a sensation on my head, gentle pull on that area and hair comes out. I can feel it coming from light sockets on my skin and I went from 1 old Lenovo laptop which was ok but it didn't support windows 11 so I had to get a Lenovo Yoga and I feel the strength of EMF coming from screen. My neighbor is also losing hair but she doesn't want to hear it. I am only 66 yrs. old and this has been going on for 3 yrs. The biggest problem I find with Tech is they create something without being MADE TO make sure it is safe 1st. An example is Halogen car lights or even other car lights, or LED lights, did anyone EVER consult with eye experts to see if any of these lights were safe to public? My answer is no. They are allowed to create anything without knowing safety 1st. I worked for 2 manufacturing Incandescent light bulbs, both factories moved to Mexico in the 80's and 90's. From what I understand, the court ordered FCC or someone to test safety of EMF and they gave the finger to the courts and did nothing. I took Cosmetology at my Trade school so I know when the skin is effected, it's bound to effect the hair Follicles. I don't know what more I can do. Every time we save to move more into the Country, the muffler needs work at $1000 a wack. I am totally awake as to what has been going on my whole life as I was going to be 4 yrs. old the day after JFK was shot and I thought as a self centered child, I thought my mom couldn't afford a birthday gift for me as we were 4 kids and dad gone, but when I went to penny candy store, owner was sad too so I knew from a young age things weren't right. Now they talk about satellites beaming down, what does that do to humanity and nature? Can anyone ever tell the truth for once? It also does no good to Regenerate soil while our skies are sprayed daily and I had my rain water tested 15 yrs. ago. When does the insanity stop, I don't know but I pray daily. Until Humanity is more important than profits, it will continue. We need a reawakening, far to many asleep and God will not bless America if we don't get involved and change our ways. I want to also express my Gratitude for all the hard work this Administration is doing, American and the world is watching, God speed. I know I went a little off subject, so sorry, Thank you listening to my testimony. Blessing to all, Lisa

Criticizes thermal limits, describes tinnitus varying with location, raises reproductive and neurological…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
The present state of regulation address only short term thermal effects from RF radiation. Non-thermal and long term effects are not addressed. However when they occur they are actually short term. Symptoms may vary from potentially causing tumor, by different effects from braking DNA, over oxidative stress that cause many sorts of disturbances. Further is associated to EHS or electro hypersensitivity syndrome, such as headaches, memory loss, tinnitus, problems of concentration, sleeping disorder, anxiety, depression and the other variety of symptoms. The last but not least is the impact on fertility. Studies on moused have indicated strong correlation. My personal opinion is when located in the large city on strong infrastructure, ther use to be tinnitus, when going to the small place on the seaside with lower exposure levels, tinnitus release significantly. The present sate of limits is to ICNIRP up to 10 W/m2 power flux for the general population. However that level is the limit for thermal effects, the non thermal appear at much lower levels in extended time of exposure, such as commonly considered levels over 10 microW/m2. That it difference in exposure of million times under official limits or 60 dB. Recommended levels by independet science are even lower and are considered additionally 100 times or 20dB lower. That may be close to levels that existed before massive base stations deployment, when only TV transmitters were available. Still todays exposure levels to limits are 100 million billions times higher then the natural radio frequency background levels or up 170 dB higher as to some research. That does not match the evolutionary adaptation. The main problem are mobile phone base stations as they present non-stop exposure and they are not a matter of personal choice. On the other hand mobile phones, WI-FI or DECT phones can present some higher levels of exposure on short distance, but they are the matter of personal choice and time of exposure could be chosen on functional preference. As to deployment of wi-fi for schools it is important to note that they cause in vicinity the same radiation as base stations on about 50 meters distance. Many studies on base stations like those done in Minas Gerais Brazil, in the Naila Germany that effects are most dominant in distances up to 500 meters and they even indicated correlation of symptoms by the distance. So the question is how could modern technology like those radiation emitters improve the quality of life if it cause insomnia, tinnitus, depression, sleeping disturbance or any other more severe diseases? If only the infertility rates are increase it can endanger national security as to the possible loss of domestic population. The solution to the problem is to use landlines and cable internet, as all functions can be done, even better, as optical internet is much safer and more reliable then wireless also the classic cable phone instead of mobile or DECT as it completely solves the functional need at any stationary location. Wireless communication makes sense only for airplanes, ships and satellites as the only option. In the car mobile phones are not allowed for use. The other question is where is such emergency that the average person should be in access at any moment? The average person is not ambulance, fireman or police for a need to instant access. Additionally constant exposure to information and access is related to significant stress and reduction in mental health, besides the radiation. As the degraded health can no more be purchased for money, the trade of health for money by the use of radiation exposure devices is not a good deal. They are prone to cause addiction, stress, loss of personal communication, physical and mental health degradation, there is no justification for its use, as all the rational jobs can be done on desktop computers, classic phone and landline internet, without radiation exposure. Costs of health in long term can significantly increase and the trick used by agencies is there is no evidence for side effects in the short term as from those protect the regulation. Actually the regulation protects industry from law suites rather then people from the radiation effects. In the attachement the excellent and wide coverage study from the Austrian health department and Austrian medical chamber, by Dr. Oberfeld, the great exert on environment and independent radiation research. In hope for better public education on risks from radiation exposure and removal of radiation exposure sources. Kind regards, Robert Markusic, ing.med.radiology & mag.oec.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Sweden, Greater Stockholm Area 2026-10-09 Hi, Together with among others The Swedish Radiation Protection Foundation ( https://www.stralskyddsstiftelsen.se/english/ ) who partly share info etc. with US Children´s Health Defense, I´ve been doing much appreciated volunteer work since 2016 informing och also practically helping a great number of fellow human beings to better understand the many both short term and long term adverse health effects in connection to various types of EMR/EMFs... via e.g. our "dumbphones", WiFi, nearby situated HIGH-radiating base stations vs primarily now 4G+ and 5G. As RFK Jr and many more people also are WELL aware of there is a WIDE range of adverse health effects many people in many countries suffer and witness from - me partly included when it comes to primarily so far HIGH-radiatiing WiFi-systems and nearby placed base stations. The most direct adverse health effects I myself and MANY more I´ve come in contact with since 2016 include various forms of direct effects such as poor concentration, tiredness, fatigue, various degrees of headache, dizzines and anxiety + an overall feeling of "stress"; stress not that strange since several parts of our nervous system reacts to the more or less constant exposure of EMR/EMFs from various wireless sources in connection to also "smart homes" and/or "smart workplaces". As RFK Jr may also be aware of in connection to The Swedish Radiation Protection Foundation and their highly important 30 minute documentary "5G - The Untold Story" - we here in Sweden since at least 2020 have more and more people WITNESSING OF ALSO MORE SEVERE ADVERSE HEALTH EFFECTS from among other sources CLOSELY SITUATED 5G BASE STATIONS... rapidly leading to severe health effects such as heart palpitations and/or heart arythmias, nose bleeds, dire dizziness, various degrees of tinnitus/ringing in the ears, pain in various parts of the body and... often an apparent feeling of need to escape from e.g. this or that exposed apartment, workplace, store etc. etc. ONE out of many other aspects of the wirelessly connected society that many countries/governments (partly vs an evil basic global agenda) have allowed to linger on is - as you know - the since many years back now WAY TOO HIGH SET "safety guidelines" for various types of EMR/EMFs in e.g. Sweden. These now very old and out-of-date "safety" guidelines ASAP NEED TO BE SUBSTANTIALLY LOWERED to even be able to be called "safety guidelines". And in connection to this one first step to asap establish/re-create a more healthy environment vs EMR/EMFs is to (as also Swedish prof. Lennart Hardell puts it) DISMANTLE THE WHOLE 5G NETWORK... also partly in connection to that few people (politicians, the wireless industry, responsible authorities etc.) so far seem UNABLE to explain what good purposes the whole 5G thing really brings......... THANK YOU so much HHS (RFK Jr and many more) for now also this initiative letting all voices in this crucially important matter be heard... so that as many countries and fellow human beings as possible asap hopefully can start functioning more in connection to the basic biological beings we are - i.e. humans who basically do NOT work well with even lower levels of artificially produced EMR/EMFs, constantly messing with large parts of our biological bodies and minds. MAHA and MEHA (Make Earth Healthy Again) greetings from Sweden, Magnus Rosberger (co-admin for Sweden´s largest Facebook-group vs EMR/EMFs - https://www.facebook.com/groups/408666892574591 )

A former contractor reports self-described Havana-like symptoms and a brief episode of psychosis, feeling…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I had began receiving Havana Syndrome like symptoms upon receiving my equipment from the Pittsburgh CDC location for a job as a contractor at the CDC. I experienced symptoms related to psychosis and felt that I was a targeted individual - someone who experiences V2K and is harassed by a mob of people. My router was acting funny as well - https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B09G5W9R6R?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title - and I began receiving odd search results through linked router. I was able to work fulltime as a contractor but due to the work environment as well as my brief psychosis but somewhat believe I was being studied. I previously had a galaxy s20 I believe as well as Iphone 13 max, both 5G related phones in my tenure as a contractor there. I never received treatment and symptoms relieved after quitting the position.

Raises cumulative-exposure concerns about connected household devices, describes paying a smart-meter opt…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
With more Wi-Fi being included with personal items in our homes, from our alarm systems to our HVAC systems and everything in between, how do we know how much we're ultimately being exposed to? We had a Wi-Fi smart meter removed from our power panel because it sits directly beneath our master bedroom, which means that we are being exposed to Wi-Fi all night long while we are sleeping. But we have to PAY an extra fee to not be radiated by our smart meter every month. And yet, the power company has NO RESPONSIBILITY to ensure that their Wi-Fi meter is safe for our health. There are so many issues that have yet to be addressed and I strongly urge this administration to fully research the safety of all these technologies.

Reports reproducible headaches near a mobile hotspot, improvement with distance or switching it off, and …

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Hello, Please look into mobile hotspots and headaches. I work remotely and when I do so from a car, coffee shop, airport or where have you with my hot spot on I get a headache within 1 minute. When I work without Hotspot, no headache. Its repeatable and consistent for the past 5 years. I do notice however when I place the mobile Hotspot more than 6 feet from me the headaches are gone or much more subtle. When the Hotspot is turned off, my headache resolves within minutes. Perhaps its rare or some people are more sensitive than others, but this is a real issue for me and makes me concerned what the health effects are. I dont suffer from headaches otherwise and am in great health. I've taken into consideration confounders like posture, stress, poor sleep, long sessions but the issue remains. I've even had my friend "blind test" me by turning a hotspot on and off near me without telling me and I was able to tell every time. Thanks!

Reports perceived benefit from replacing Wi-Fi with Ethernet, keeping phones away from the body and using…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I've noticed a discernible difference by removing our Wifi router / back to wired / ethernet. Besides removing the wifi completely when using a cell phone, placing it down on a table / holding it away from the body / head, makes a difference. And wearing silver lined clothing (havnwear) which acts as a faraday cage to mitigate.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
When I am close to a Wi-Fi device e.g., router, phone, laptop etc., I get headaches. The same with Bluetooth devices and cellular devices. Because of this, I usually turn off those functions on my devices as much as possible and keep them as far away from me as possible. I’ve noticed this for the last 10-15 years. This is not something that I was told is true, it is something I have and continue to observe. I’m very cautious about it being potentially psychosomatic, but after this occurring consistently for so many years, I’ve ruled out that it was simply psychosomatic.

Describes severe neurological, cardiac and other symptoms beginning after smart-meter installation, attri…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
It started in 2011, when a smart meter was put on the house. I began noticing a burning sensation on my skin, the kind that felt like a radiation burn—flushing, tingling, pins and needles that settled hardest around my head and chest. Headaches followed, excruciating migraines that would not let up. My eyes felt jiggly and unstable. There was a constant internal vibration, as if something inside me was humming. Weakness set in, then deeper weakness in my arms and legs, along with trembling. My joints ached and went numb. One eyelid began to droop. My heart raced. Shortness of breath came with it, and chest pain that felt like the start of a heart attack. I grew faint and, more than once, passed out. Vertigo made the room tilt. My ears hurt. Sleep disappeared; insomnia left me awake through the night. Nausea turned into vomiting. My stomach stayed unsettled. I could not keep enough fluid in me and felt dehydrated. Through all of it ran a heavy malaise, the sense that my whole system was failing. I would get “sunburnt” sitting inside the car. The signals bounce around the metal interior and pass through the body. It was a long road to discovering the culprits. Exposure leaves me basically disabled. The triggers include dirty electricity, ungrounded electricity, surveillance cameras, cell-phone signals, electric transmission lines, electric cars, smart dashes, smart watches, smart televisions, Wi-Fi, 5g, LED lights (I can use only incandescent bulbs), and anything that emits a microwave signal. We sold our forever home at a loss and moved to a remote place with no cell service and no smart meter. I keep only hardwired electronics, an old landline, and older appliances with no smart features. After moving-I secured a new job that was in an all electronically wired building. I left my job after the building allowed cell phones inside and installed Wi-Fi printers. Before that it had been a high-security workplace where everything stayed wired, and that had been tolerable until that point. I cannot go into a store or sit in traffic among other people’s phones. Stepping back to this necessity lifestyle has used up our monetary resources. I can't earn an income. To understand what had happened to me, I read the work of Dietrich Klinghardt, Joseph Mercola, Martin Pall, and Mark A. Plinsky. I have also found a few organizations that offer a lot of information on how to avoid and remediate emfs and rfs in every day life. The complaints I live with—the skin burning, the crushing headaches, the fatigue and weakness, the heart symptoms, the ear pain and jaw pain, the internal vibrations, the dizziness, and the insomnia—match the cluster those sources describe in people who attribute their illness to electromagnetic fields. The setup required to minimize my illness is very isolating. It would be good for the American public to be more informed. This is a very real problem. It is a health emergency for many. I believe that folks don't know what is happening to them-and doctors/caregivers don't know where to look for answers-as this is not generally recognized as a mainstream problem. It should be.

Reports clinician-diagnosed electromagnetic radiation syndrome, headaches and insomnia, describes tower a…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I have suffered from Electromagnetic Radiation Syndrome for over 6 years. It was diagnosed by two clinicians. Our home is near a cell tower and we had to take significant measures to remediate our exposure not only to the cell towers, but also to our exposure to all the smart meters in our neighborhood. We have no WIFI in our house and painted the walls in our bedrooms to block the radiation coming through. It gave me headaches, insomnia and aggravated my Lyme disease. It's especially bad inside a newer car with all kinds of smart devices. I was made aware of more people who had the same issue and became an EMF Consultant. I have clients who suffered horribly from their exposure, and many didn't have the financial resources needed to mitigate the problem. This is a serious problem. Our government agencies must do their due diligence to protect the people from this ubiquitous environmental toxin.
