I believe HHS should address this issue because wireless radiation has grown exponentially since it was studied over thirty years ago.\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-2026-0397-5646","tags":["child-development","research-evidence"],"source_hash":"6da0a3e24ef00a356272416ffbb696136142023754688081100eec34f5ea4e09","slug":"child-development-comment-5646","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-5646","body_sha256":"75bb2efbd7281c2f63eb48ba4a6b5af86baa206dcba2552adfe6aec0c049a81d","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"research","topics":[{"id":"research","evidence":"ese experiences and the scientific evidence, identify gaps in current research, give particular attention to children and other potentially vul"},{"id":"children","evidence":"rrent research, give particular attention to children and other potentially vulnerable populations, and establish appropriate federal research priorities regarding"},{"id":"environment","evidence":"e role in examining the potential health and environmental effects of wireless radiation.
