A parent reports worsening migraines in two sons after a nearby 5G tower installation and increased anxie…

Good afternoon, My name is Rachel Kamalova and I am the mother of 6 children. 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 parent and concerned member of the public. Wireless radiation has been making my family sick these past 6 years. During covid lock downs a 5g tower was put up close to our home. Shortly after this 2 of my sons started getting migraines that have become worse and for frequent. They are otherwise healthy boys. There is so much more chaos and anxiety when the wifi is on... and our neighborhood have all suffered since the tower was put in place. I 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. I 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. Thank you for providing individuals and families with an opportunity to be heard.
