We are all different in vulnerability. Some develop one disorder, others many: biochemical imbalances, leukemia, stroke, immune suppression, inflammation. This reflects individual differences in oxidative stress response and DNA repair capacity.\n\nAll electric systems conduct and re-radiate wireless signals: modems, computers, TVs, power wiring, smart electricity and gas meters (169 MHz for gas). Conductive building materials increase indoor exposure: drywall is mounted on metal studs acting as antennas, and reinforced concrete with steel rebar reflects and traps RF inside homes, preventing recovery.\n\nEHS is not psychosomatic. It is recognized as a neurological pathology with objective biomarkers in the International Scientific Consensus:\nBelpomme D, Carlo GL, Irigaray P, et al. The Critical Importance of Molecular Biomarkers and Imaging in the Study of Electrohypersensitivity. Int J Mol Sci. 2021;22(14):7321.\n\nSupporting evidence from the EMP Victims European Appeal 2024-2025 bibliography (26 categories, >180 studies):\n- Zothansiama et al. 2017 Electromagn Biol Med - DNA damage and antioxidant status near base stations\n- Gulati et al. - genetic instability near towers\n- Dasdag & Akdag - 2100 MHz induced oxidative stress\n- Pei et al. 2024 - immune depression in mice\n- Hardell & Carlberg 2013 Pathophysiology - dose-response glioma\n- Foerster et al. 2018 Environ Health Perspect - memory effects in adolescents\n- BioInitiative Working Group 2012 - biologically-based limits\n\nIn Europe, EHS is described as a humanitarian emergency. People lose housing, healthcare, work, and social inclusion. In Italy, smart gas and electricity meters are mandatory (ARERA), property of the distributor, and cannot be refused, even with medical certificate. Patients can only request relocation outside and deactivation of radio module.\n\nI urge HHS to:\n1. Compare US FCC thermal-only limits (1996) with precautionary EU limits and evaluate non-thermal effects, DNA damage, oxidative stress\n2. Fund independent research on biomarkers and imaging for EHS\n3. Recognize right to white zones in every region, housing in non-conductive materials (stone, solid wood), wired infrastructure, and right to remove or deactivate smart meters and to have manual reading for health reasons\n4. Issue moratorium on new antennas and 5G densification near homes and schools, including high-power TV transmitters >20km and radar, until limits are revised\n5. Protect vulnerable populations with practical low-exposure guidance\n\nThank you for giving patients a voice.","attachments":[],"attachment_inventory":true,"withheld":false,"source":"https://www.regulations.gov/comment/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-6293","tags":["cancer-tumors","health-experiences","sleep-cognition","biology-metabolism","exposure-places","policy-standards","research-evidence"],"source_hash":"bfcc4e8376d53e3ef5eb29caa0128f63032de654b7d3b590d77851e7ec34e145","slug":"cancer-tumors-comment-6293","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-6293","body_sha256":"fe8ac670789f95b0e986d584f9452dc92d6e5320c56db6d679940806caf74789","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"ehs","topics":[{"id":"ehs","evidence":"am submitting this comment as a patient with Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS) for docket HHS-OASH-2026-0397.\n\nRF radiation is known to c"},{"id":"mechanisms","evidence":"H-2026-0397.\n\nRF radiation is known to cause DNA strand breaks.
