Wireless radiation must be studied! I have experienced strange, high-pitched sounds and ringing in my ears, which is not explained medically.  Furthermore, this only occurs indoors and not when I am in nature. In addition, brain fog is a daily companion, which some have attributed to wireless radiation.  The facts are that we are being bombarded with something we do not understand the effects of, and our exposure is ongoing and increasing.\n\nI 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.\n\nI 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.\n\nThank you for providing individuals and families with an opportunity to be heard.","attachments":[],"attachment_inventory":true,"withheld":false,"source":"https://www.regulations.gov/comment/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-0066","tags":["child-development","sleep-cognition","research-evidence"],"source_hash":"43cfbf939885ea83b908a7ffea4a05579e9ca1fbc366a7fb3db0c22aadbc3d47","slug":"child-development-comment-0066","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-0066","body_sha256":"49cb65bcd8320e98fb1ec33e55bf3107e91796a3ae3220b2eb61484602f38913","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"neurological","topics":[{"id":"neurological","evidence":"  Wireless radiation must be studied!
