ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Dear HHS, I am writing to participate in the collection of information regarding the biological effects of Electromagnetic fields (EMF’s) and Radio Frequency Radiation (RFR) emitted from all wireless/cellular devices and infrastructure. I am writing under your question: Public Experiences and Reported Potential Adverse Health Effects. I have been biologically impacted from EMF/RFR for many years. I have a medical diagnosis from my physician and have attached a redacted version of the letter that she provided to the U.S District Court Court stating this diagnosis, and that I would not be able to participate in Jury Duty, due to the biological impacts of the EMF/RFR present in the court's environment-the request for dismissal was granted. I want to begin by saying that millions of people around the world are biologically affected by EMF/RFR and these numbers are steadily growing as a result of our everyday exposures. In my own life, I have had to make significant changes in order to stay healthy in our modern wireless world. When exposed to EMF/RFR via wireless/cellular devices and infrastructure, I experience biological flu-like symptoms, ear pain and heart palpitations which quickly resolve once I am away from these exposures. While these are the biological effects I observe in the immediacy, I also note that EMF/RFR has been demonstrated to cause inflammation and Oxidative Stress which play out in the body over time. Protective steps in daily life: -No wireless devices-everything is hard wired -Landline- no cell phone. -Opt-outs for all smart utility meters -Driving an older car with no EMF/RFR -Financial investment monthly for extra charges for utility meter opt-outs -Financial investment into RFR/EMF meter, RFR/EMF blocking curtains, tents. clothing for use when outside the home and when traveling to secure these environments. For reference: RFR/EMF blocking clothing-$100- $350 per item RFR/EMF meters- $300- $500 per meter, RFR/EMF blocking tents- $1500- $3500 RFR/EMF blocking curtains $300 per set Utility smart meter opt-outs$10 - $75 monthly per meter. Daily realities: -No safety from RFR/EMF anywhere outside home. -Can no longer work outside of home. -Necessity of RFR/EMF protective clothing & products outside the home. -Ongoing difficult asks and conversations with family, friends- regularly -All appliances, cars, computers, devices have to be hard wired and safe with RFR/EMF; immense and time consuming effort maintaining and finding these resources- ongoing Considerations -More and more people are seeing biological effects with growing exposures. -The industry blocking info on biological & environmental harms and thus the solutions. Bio-effects are 100% preventable. -Regulatory agencies and policy makers are not regulating this discussion due to the immense power of telecom. -The U.S. has a poor history with environmental toxicants, action not taken on lead for over 70 years after established as unsafe, similarly with asbestos, PFAS, tobacco. -Our millennials, the first generation to grow up with significantly increasing exposures to RFR/EMF identified as the unhealthiest generation on record according to the Blue Cross Health of America Report. Directly correlates chronologically to increased EMF/RFR exposures Solutions; Industry, Regulatory Agencies & Policy Makers: -Formally acknowledging the biological/environmental effects of EMF/RFR -Instituting safer biological emissions/exposure standards -Instituting emissions to be capped at 10 Microwatts per meter squared per all devices/infrastructure- align with biological exposure guidelines. -Instituting safer designs of cell phones, devices, infrastructure -Instituting “off means off” on all cell phones, wireless systems/devices-no transmitting in airplane or when wireless options are “off.” -Instituting factory settings of all wireless devices at the lowest setting and making them adjustable. -Instituting that EMF/RFR emission standards are set and regulated by HHS/FDA/medical/scientific experts. - Instituting rules prohibiting those regulating telecom in the FCC/HHS/FDA from being employed by the telecommunication industry for at least 5 years before or after their regulatory position has begun/ ended. -Re-open the TCA and allowing biological/environmental health and safety considerations. -Review the New Hampshire Commission's 390 page report and use it as a model for protective policy with wireless radiation. -Institute the industry assuming legal liability for the safety of their products. Thank you for your consideration and I hope that you will use this inquiry as an opportunity to make the changes that are both doable and will allow for a healthier, safer and better future for us all.
