I have watched her deal with physical symptoms every time she leaves our hardwired shielded home. The effects from the ever increasing wireless radiation in all environments, have literally turned our lives upside down.\nExposure to cell signals, wireless products and infrastructure triggers immediate physical reactions and because of this she cannot work outside the house or be safe in public spaces, making basic errands and social outings very challenging and sometimes even impossible.\nTo hlep mitigate this, we spend thousands of dollars out of pocket on specialized gear—such as shielding clothing, RF meters, protective sleeping canopies, and monthly utility fees to opt out of smart meters.\nEverything in our home and life including all new purchases have to be manually modified or hardwired and RF/EMF safe. This requires endless research and work just to maintain a safe living space.\nThe science on the biological impacts of RF and EMF is clear; science, the government and the industry  have known about the biological effects for decades, there are thousands of studies.  Our allowable exposure levels here in the U.S are too high, several times higher than many other countries and it is time for our regulatory agencies, our legislators and telecom to take the steps to fully address our outdated emission standards, their biological impacts and to make our technology safer. \nThis is an engineering, policy and willingness matter. The engineering solutions and ability exists, the industry is not going to take this turn towards instituting more safety unless they are required to by the federal government, Our regulatory agencies and our legislators simply have to be willing to move into meaningfully regulating this multi trillion dollar industry and driving economic engine, something that has not been done since  the onset of the tech boom in the 1990s.\nWith this investigation and the information you receive from it, along with the research you have had for decades, , you are in a position to make a change for millions of people here in the U.S and ultimately around the world. It is my hope that you will take all needed actions to bring forth the necessary changes that will ensure safer living with our technology for all. \n\n\nHow many people have to suffer, lose their health or their lives- unnecessarily as we continue these known harmful practices and policies?\nHow many lives have to be ruined before we say enough? \nAs the department of HHS it is imperative that you take the steps to ensure that biological health is placed above what is convenient for corporations and their profits. \nYou must make the investment now in making this technology safer in the many ways that we can. \n\nWhat We Are Asking For:\nReal Accountability: Regulatory bodies like the HHS, FDA, and FCC need to stop letting telecom interests dictate safety limits and base exposure caps on actual independent biological science.\nPractical Fixes: Devices should feature hard off-switches, lower default emissions, and strict caps aligned with human health rather than corporate convenience.\n\n\n","attachments":["https://downloads.regulations.gov/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-6841/attachment_1.pdf"],"attachment_inventory":true,"withheld":false,"source":"https://www.regulations.gov/comment/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-6841","tags":["health-experiences","sleep-cognition","exposure-places","policy-standards","research-evidence"],"source_hash":"065bb250805f7dcb548520252d6155a17e5aff0a5104dca9414e3ef837cdf7fc","slug":"health-experiences-comment-6841","classification":{"id":"HHS-OASH-2026-0397-6841","body_sha256":"17138ed19f38347ba46c3c2c111063d41846581e2073caf23e9be6c6f03e9c3a","status":"ai_reviewed","primary_topic":"access","topics":[{"id":"access","evidence":"she cannot work outside the house or be safe in public spaces"},{"id":"smart-meters","evidence":"monthly utility fees to opt out of smart meters."},{"id":"standards","evidence":"base exposure caps on actual independent biological science."},{"id":"optical","evidence":"manually modified or hardwired and RF/EMF safe."}],"summary":"Describes a spouse’s documented reactions to wireless exposure, work and public-access restrictions and substantial mitigation costs, and requests biologically based limits, lower emissions and device off-switches.","reviewed_at":"2026-10-28T23:54:32Z","review_method":"Full comment-text review with exact source evidence; attachments not reviewed","review_source_sha256":"975d270c65cdfba37b31b5f6383acbd495b40b677bff202946286f033dd4196f","source_url":"https://rfsafe.net/hhs-comments/data/catalog.json","scope":"Original comment body; attachments excluded"},"forum_topics":["access","smart-meters","standards","optical"],"primary_topic":"access","forum_title":"Describes a spouse’s documented reactions to wireless exposure, work and public-access restrictions and s…"}
