RFI response on 10-20-26 refers to Requirements document: https://www.regulations.gov/document/HHS-OASH-2026-0397-0001 This RFI response is based on peer-reviewed research and Engineering knwledge, Executive Summary It’s well known, to EMF Engineers, that Near-field radiation can bring very intense radiation within inches to human organs (i.e. Brain, auditory channel, Eye, etc. ) primarily because being within particular frequency wavelengths and close proximity antennas can concentrate radiated energy to organ structures. In 4-7-2023, Dr. Lai published a paper: Henry Lai* and B. Blake Levitt, Cellular and molecular effects of non-ionizing electromagnetic fields, Environ Health 2024; 39(3): 519–529 { https://doi.org/10.1515/reveh-2023-0023 } . This paper integrates much knowledge gained over several decades in bio-electromagnetic research and points to a likely unifying mechanism which explains both the many adverse and beneficial effects seen with exposure to man-made EMFs. Dr. Lai paper cites many other studies over +44 years Most of the RFI responses (below) reference Dr. Lai paper, which I felt it necessary to submit this relevant RFI to HHS {HHS–OASH–2026–0397}.
