{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-4035","number":"4035","name":"Darren Howes","organization":"","posted":"2026-10-21T04:00Z","received":"2026-10-15T04:00Z","body":"Hello - I will be providing information to the effects of these catastrophic frequencies and radiation exposures and I demand that the FCC and HHS release their findings on this as well to the public.  It has been presented before but shoved off as \"We don't deal with humans, only frequencies.\"  There is so much proof out there it is absurd that our government and the tech companies keep slowly killing the global populations with these weapons; that is what they are.  See below info and any attachments on this.\n\nThe peer-reviewed and human evidence submitted to federal regulators establishes that exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs), radiofrequency radiation (RFR) and wireless radiation produces a wide range of measurable biological harms—not merely theoretical thermal risks. As documented in the FCC docket, filings contained \"peer-reviewed studies showing radiofrequency radiation contributing to cell damage, DNA damage, infertility, carcinogenicity, cognitive deficits, and cardiovascular disruption, among a wide array of negative health effects\". This body of evidence—over 11,000 pages—was dismissed by the FCC, whose representative reportedly told an injured petitioner, \"We don't deal with humans, only frequencies\".\n\nCancer Risk and Official Recognition\nThe World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer classifies RF radiation as \"possibly carcinogenic to humans\". Professor Lennart Hardell is responsible for this classification based on evidence linking wireless radiation to increased risk for glioma and acoustic neuroma [A-2]. The National Toxicology Program's own study found \"clear evidence linking cell phone use to heart tumors in rats, with some evidence also linking it to brain and adrenal tumors\" [A-1]. A review led by Linda Birnbaum, former director of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, concluded there is \"substantial scientific evidence\" that RFR causes \"cancer, endocrine, and neurological problems, as well as many other negative health effects\".\n\nThe Causal Mechanism: Oxidative Stress\nAt the cellular level, the primary mechanism of harm appears to be oxidative stress. According to Children's Health Defense, the evidence identified a \"causal mechanism of harm\" found in 203 out of 225 studies: oxidative stress, \"which can lead to cancer, non-cancer conditions, and DNA damage\". Professor Martin Pall, Professor Emeritus of Biochemistry at Washington State University, confirmed that \"current EMFs can cause lowered fertility, neurological/psychiatric effects, DNA damage, apoptosis, oxidative stress, endocrine effects, cancer, genetic and epigenetic changes, inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and cardiac effects\".\n\nChildren Are Disproportionately Vulnerable\nChildren face heightened risk. Research has found that \"children's brains absorb 2-3 times more radiation than an adult's\". This vulnerability is compounded by the fact that substantially more children are using cell phones from younger ages.\n\nThe 5G Escalation\nThe rollout of 5G represents a dramatic escalation. Unlike previous technologies, 5G uses \"frequencies between 24 GHz and 100 GHz, known as millimeter-wave frequencies\". Israeli researchers found that \"our sweat ducts act as antennas for millimeter waves, meaning we would absorb more energy into our bodies\". Professor Pall warned that \"5G will inevitably produce universal or almost universal very early-onset Alzheimer's dementia and may cause near-universal autism\" . Critically, \"there are no safety studies on 5G\", and Senator Richard Blumenthal concluded after a Senate hearing, \"So there really is no research ongoing. We're kind of flying blind here, as far as health and safety are concerned\".\n\nBrain, Sleep and Mitochondrial Effects\nThe evidence further shows effects on the brain, \"including impaired blood flow and damage to the blood-brain barrier, cognitive and memory problems, and effects on sleep, melatonin production, and mitochondrial damage\". These findings are especially significant because mitochondrial dysfunction is central to chronic degenerative disease processes. Dr. Erica Mallery-Blythe emphasized that \"the relationship between radiation intensity and biological effects is not linear,\" and that EMFs interact with chemicals, genetics, nutrition, and stress in ways that \"can exponentially worsen these biological effects\".\n\nConclusion\nThe evidence is clear: EMF, RFR and wireless radiation exposure produces oxidative stress, DNA damage, cancer, neurological harm, reproductive damage, and mitochondrial dysfunction.\n\n","attachments":["https://downloads.regulations.gov/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-4035/attachment_1.pdf","https://downloads.regulations.gov/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-4035/attachment_1.png","https://downloads.regulations.gov/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-4035/attachment_2.pdf","https://downloads.regulations.gov/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-4035/attachment_2.png","https://downloads.regulations.gov/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-4035/attachment_3.pdf","https://downloads.regulations.gov/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-4035/attachment_3.docx"],"attachment_inventory":true,"withheld":false,"source":"https://www.regulations.gov/comment/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-4035","tags":["cancer-tumors","child-development","sleep-cognition","biology-metabolism","exposure-places","policy-standards","research-evidence"],"source_hash":"d826f484fe486ceee3910fadb8f93570d13adf9503810119b9ae94e1075d8f64","slug":"cancer-tumors-comment-4035","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-4035","body_sha256":"9e39025d409ecaba99838e8e02775ea4d9dd0562dc62936a0588d5c90a178d7a","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"research","topics":[{"id":"research","evidence":" exposures and I demand that the FCC and HHS release their findings on this as well to the public.
