To whom it may concern, 

My name is Ida, I am approximately 60 years of age, and I reside in Northern Italy.

Some ten years ago, I discovered that I suffer from electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS) and Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS). Needless to say, my life has been altered beyond recognition ever since. I have been compelled to turn my entire existence upside down, relinquishing both my employment and my former home, and relocating to an exceedingly secluded setting — quite literally, my home lies in the middle of the woods.

And yet, notwithstanding these considerable sacrifices, since the onset of the first COVID-19 lockdown, my symptoms have gradually, but markedly, deteriorated, seemingly in response to successive increases in the permitted maximum levels of electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure.

Inflammation, chronic fatigue, depression, physical debility, insomnia, headaches, severe joint pain and skin eruptions, to name but a few, have either become considerably worse or emerged despite my never having suffered from them previously.

I therefore appeal to your compassion and sense of responsibility: let us put a stop to this state of affairs. Let us ensure that countless individuals like myself, including those who are considerably younger, are spared further suffering as a result of what I can only regard as a deeply troubling state of affairs.

I would also respectfully urge you to bear in mind that concerns surrounding EMF exposure extend beyond those who identify as electromagnetically hypersensitive. The absence of perceived symptoms should not, in itself, be taken as grounds for complacency, nor should anyone assume that they are somehow immune to potential adverse effects simply because they have yet to experience any discernible consequences.

My own experience stands as a deeply personal testament to the profound impact that these circumstances have had upon my life.

Please, let us take meaningful action whilst there is still time, rather than risk reaching a point at which the damage may prove irreversible.

I am sincerely grateful to you for affording me the opportunity to share my testimony and to bring my personal experience to your attention.

Yours faithfully,Ida
