I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure.
I am responding from the perspective of a concerned parent and individual who has been impacted by exposure to EMFs, and has seen the effect it has had on others. I have a degree from Yale University and have researched electromagnetic fields and wireless exposure for my own personal education.  
EMFs, mostly from cell phones, wifi, smart meters and cell towers have: interfered with sleep patterns, memory and impacted more than a few friends and their families. One friend can’t sleep with the wifi on.  Another can tell you when he is within proximity to a cell tower with amazing accuracy.  One other can’t own a current cellphone because it gives him an instant headache. In the early days of the wireless boom, reducing exposure made all the difference, even though it often required that people isolate, losing their communities and even their homes in some cases, if they were living near a cell tower. But nowadays it has become harder and harder to avoid exposure.  Our society depends on technology. Unfortunately the lack of sufficient safety studies and examination of the potential health hazards before launching into commitment to the widespread use of wireless devices, has created a silent but real public health issue.  I feel strongly that we need to safeguard our population, and especially those vulnerable individuals like small children and the elderly by doing the proper research without the influence of interested parties skewing the results.  We owe that to the future .
I encourage HHS to take an active role in examining the potential health and environmental effects of wireless radiation on the human body.  When you do, I hope you will include the experiences of the many individuals and families who report being affected alongside the scientific evidence, identifying and closing the gaps in current research. Please make wireless radiation and public health safety a federal research priority!  Our kids will thank you! As will yours.
