This is unacceptable give the rapidly changing landscape of wireless technology.  Living and working within 300-500 feet of small cell towers has impacted me and my children with noticeable changes in headache frequency and sleep quality.  This is not coincidental, and studies MUST be done.\n\nI support HHS taking an active role in examining the potential health and environmental effects of wireless radiation. \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-2026-0397-4574","tags":["child-development","health-experiences","sleep-cognition","exposure-places","research-evidence"],"source_hash":"28427fa0fe52ce001b6ed02ab6f65292d5076f29b8b876de11326d1fe401b5c6","slug":"child-development-comment-4574","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-4574","body_sha256":"aaf67d8c191e2ef1c7982f8afa78ef86abb16043d862f41ce4f9e8c4ffbd3fe9","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"infrastructure","topics":[{"id":"infrastructure","evidence":"eless technology.
