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 both a researcher and American civilian. I have had many negative experiences personally with wireless radiation over the past couple decades, as well as my own research, both academically and theoretical, on the negative effects of non-ionizing radiation. The most significant experience is the week 5G went online, and fully energized, in San Juan, Puerto Rico where I had been residing in December 2019, just before the pandemic. I immediately developed migraines for the first time. And have dealt with specifically since then in metropolitan areas, including upon my return to Los Angeles. I now have to live rural, and avoid cities, to maintain some aspect of a productive lifestyle. High levels of cell phone radiation first trigger fatigue, confusion, and reduced cognitive function in myself, followed my headaches, and at worst, migraines. As such, I do not, have not, and will not, own a 5G phone. I have studied electrical engineering, theoretical physics, and cosmology for the past 20 years. To say non-ionizing radiation has no biological effects, let alone the tolerance levels currently accepted as safe, are in part criminal at this point in time from research that does exist on the topic, and has since been whitewashed as with other highly politicized industries on health and wellness.
