Dear Secretary Kennedy, Thank you for giving the public an opportunity to express our sincere concerns regarding EMF, RF, and wireless radiation exposure. As a mother of five children (ages 25, 23, 22, 19 and 11), I am truly concerned about the effects of EMFs and 5G radiation exposure. There are increasing reports of adverse effects from cell towers and 5G, and sadly, many of these towers are right next to our schools, playgrounds and in our neighborhoods. I live right behind a small elementary charter school on Big Pine Key, an island in the Lower Florida Keys. There is a large cell tower right next to the school and about .10 - .20 miles from my house. Not only am I concerned for the children at the school, but also for my own family, as I am sure the radiation emitted from the tower is not good for our health. We try hard to limit exposure in our home by using wired headphones and turning off the router at night, but I am sure there is still so much more we are exposed to than we should be. It is my understanding that 4G LTE is much safer and still widely used in Europe. Can we please look into safe alternatives for Americans? While I understand that it is not a popular idea, I feel that grounded or dial-up options may be much safer. Thank you for taking a look into this very important issue to our health.
