I have been exposed to EMF, RF and Wireless Radiation since birth and have yet to experience any of the health related issues, you are expressing. Humans have been exposed to EMF and RF radiations including at the 5GHz frequency for centuries. Much of these RF and EMF exposures come from extraterrestrial sources. Yet, there has never been a documented case of increased illness or injury as a result. \n\nIn addition to extraterrestrial sources, I have been EMF and RF exposed to High Voltage Power Lines, Wireless Communication Devices, Satellite Communication Devices, Cell Phones, Florescent and Halogen light sources, CRT, Plasma, LCD, and LED Televisions and monitors, just to name a few. At no point did I ever feel my life was in danger with this level of exposure. \n\nAdmittedly, Exposure to RF radiation in extreme an extreme dosage can cause harm. But these situations are the exception, and not the rule. Scientific research on typical exposure shown no adverse affects. Any claims by a person asserting sensitivity to RF Radiation under normal operating conditions tend to see those claims fall apart under rigorous study, meaning the effects are normally a placebo effect than reality.\n\nSuch exercises are nothing but a waste of time and taxpayer money on pseudoscience. Instead, I believe it would benefit the nation to explore ways to make helthcare less expensive, hold insurance, pharmaceutical companies, and for-profit hospitals accountable for putting shareholder profits over patients, and research into health crisis. such as the measles we are currently facing.","attachments":[],"attachment_inventory":true,"withheld":false,"source":"https://www.regulations.gov/comment/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-2062","tags":["health-experiences","exposure-places","policy-standards","research-evidence"],"source_hash":"540ae2d968685f5db5ace0c7a41e074e75264b7d458cd099c51dbc362af10c03","slug":"health-experiences-comment-2062","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-2062","body_sha256":"6eb64e595bf3c884a4d44f21e48fb8a527c4e39b749a82c6e2a52659f81849cd","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"occupational","topics":[{"id":"occupational","evidence":"As a professional Network Technician who has been in the IT Industry for well over 20 years"},{"id":"research","evidence":"uations are the exception, and not the rule.
