ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I worked in a major FAANG company hardware lab that tested a popular device you speak to and developed severe EMF sensitivity working in this lab. My coworkers one had multiple Brian tumors and another one in his 30’s suddenly died. Many employees on this team developed health issues during their time working on these projects and didn’t attribute the high levels of RF and EMF exposure to be a contributing factor. I still suffer when around electronic devices over 12 years later and it’s a very hard health condition to not only manage but even describe to the public or health professionals because they will literally label you as a nut case or tinfoil hat wearing person rather than understand the gaps in our knowledge with EMF’s and biology and worse it’s incredibly hurtful and dismissive to someone who is suffering and laying in bed instead being with their family and a productive member of society. It’s very isolating without having reliable science that links exposure to harm. Our FCC guidelines are a joke compared to countries that take RF exposure seriously. The fact they haven’t been re evaluated in decades shows that the FCC controls policy and public safety isn’t take seriously. If you discount any EMF study that isn’t industry funded then you find over 72% of them find biological harm. And even more importantly we have no studies that replicate real life situations like a class room full of phones with a strong WiFi access point over the students heads and no understanding of the impacts on children. Thank you for taking the lead to shine a light and hopefully provide better science and understanding around this very serious issue.
