My name is Blythe Tomblin. I have a titanium implant in my left upper jaw. I never got headaches before very very rarely and around 2021. I started getting intermittent headaches. Around 2022 I moved to Hayden Idaho and got a job at an office building that had 5G and my headaches became worse and I couldn’t breathe out of the left side of my nose. My headache would go from intense pressure, headache to runny nose and the cycle would just keep repeating. It took me a while to correlate what was going on. I looked up some things online, and I found a case where a man had a bunch of implants and had the same symptoms. My dentist said that 5g heats my implant up 3 degrees. There is no escaping this. The cell phone companies should have tested these types of things out to make sure there is no harm to the human body. They should compensate me for my pain and suffering among many other people and also pay for the surgery to get this removed so I can have a zirconia one put in that will not cause these types of problems. Thank you for taking my statement

In September of 2021 I had an unfortunate accident requiring metal plates to be surgically attached to my scull. The injury had also left me with nerve damage. During my recovery, I noticed I was becoming hyper sensitive to RF and other frequencies. When traveling on roads and highways, it became evident that upon approaching cell towers, my face, where the metal plates are located, became inflamed. I could feel a burning sensation and my face would literally heat up. The further away from the towers I got, the less discomfort I felt though each encounter had lasting effects. On a long road trip, the affects were cumulative as approaching and passing by tower after tower left its unwelcome marks. After 5 years, I am able to predict when my phone might ring or receive a notification before it rings by the burning in my face. Had it not been for my injury, I might never have known how these frequencies might be affecting us all. Just because you may not be able to feel it happening as I do, does not mean that you are not being affected as well. I do not know what the long term ramifications are but it is obviously taking a toll on my quality of life. I am posting this with the hope my statement may serve to help others. Thank you for this opportunity.

In response to the question of my personal health issues caused by exposure to EMFs, radio frequency, and wireless radiation exposure: I have not been able to go anywhere for over 10 years where there are groups of people, because of the high EMFs, etc. levels caused by their cellphones, and, of course, the proliferation of cell towers, including 5G. After so many years of being mostly stuck in the house, my mental state can be difficult to deal with. Wearing personal shielding clothing, I am only able to go to the store for groceries and other necessities, a local park, and the library for short periods of time. Due to the radiation from Smart Meters and cell towers in the vicinity of the mobile home park where we live, I can no longer spend time in my own backyard, which is adjacent to a beautiful, large creek. Sadly, I can no longer work in the garden. Before I got dramatically sick from cumulative wi-fi exposure on July 3, 2016, I was very active socially. For many years, I was a folk musician and performed all over the U.S and also in Europe. I also produced a music festival in Berkeley, California. But that life is over for me, now. When I got sick because of smart meters, cell towers, and the wi-fi router in our house, I couldn’t talk and I could barely walk, and what I did try to say was described as “gibberish”. Basically, my brain shut down to the bare minimum necessary to keep my body alive. It took 8 months of sleeping 10 hours a night in a house with absolutely no wi-fi and lots of shielding on the doors and windows (and excellent natural health care, including dietary measures) before I could think straight and communicate clearly again. I might add that after Smart Meters were put on the electric meters in our mobile home park with approximately 40 units, the bees and butterflies started dying. Of course, we “opted out” and convinced several neighbors close by to do the same. Actually, we have been paying their opt-out fees for about 8 years. I urge you to take the human and environmental consequences of EMF exposure seriously and consider slowing down the increasing number of 5G towers across the country. In making these important decisions for every American, please remember me and everyone who spoke against more microwave/EMF technology. You have a chance now to prevent the coming avalanche of cancer, atrial fibrillation, other heart problems, and nervous system disorders, including mental problems. Microwave radiation has a severe impact on the body, but by the time most people realize it, they are already very sick and it is difficult to recover. I am one of the lucky ones who managed to recover, thanks to my partner who has made a huge effort to totally shield our house, including the windows, to protect us. I will be 80 years old in December and I live in a mobile home that is totally shielded to keep out microwave-radiation, thanks to the efforts of my partner. We have incurred approximately $5,000 in costs for the shielding necessary to live in a wi-fi free home with WIRED computers and router. My partner is a wholistic chiropractor, and he has many patients who are ill (and some who have died) because of wi-fi exposure, including but not limited to cancer and atrial fibrillation, which is happening more and more across the U.S. We are very grateful to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. for focusing on the dangers of this harmful technology. It’s long over-due for regulation.

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 a patient. Wireless radiation affects me every day of my life. I have to restrict time on the cell phone, computer, and need to avoid areas outside with too much emf's. This is an illness of hypersensitivity to environmental factors including emfs. I have had this since 1990 and too much emf makes me sick and weak. It is hard to avoid because it is so prevalent everywhere. I have to retreat to my home where I have less exposure and can recover. Each time the cell phones change to a higher G it gets worse. If Cell towers were too near my home it would have devastating health affects. It is imperative that HHS address this issue. I support HHS taking an active role in examining the potential health and environmental effects of wireless radiation. Questions about human health should be addressed by federal agencies with appropriate expertise in medicine, biology, epidemiology, and public health, and the experiences of individuals and families who report being affected should be considered alongside the scientific evidence. I urge HHS to carefully evaluate these experiences and the scientific evidence, identify gaps in current research, give particular attention to children and other potentially vulnerable populations, and establish appropriate federal research priorities regarding wireless radiation and public health. Thank you for providing individuals and families with an opportunity to be heard.

In about 2011, I began noticing that I was bothered by wireless radiation. It began with the newer TV's which I could not use, then it escalated to wi-fi and cell phones. After becoming inundated by my many neighbors wi-fi, I had to leave my home and sleep in the country, because I could no longer sleep. I began sleeping in a building I had access to, in the country, which helped. Along with sleep difficulties, the exposure caused me nerve pain up and down my middle, tingling feet, tachycardia, and more. After a hard search on what to do, trying to shield my home to no avail, I made the very difficult decision to move to Green Bank, West Virginia. My life was not a life I wanted to leave, and like all who have come here, I spent a lot of money making the move. And I spent a lot of money on home shielding attempts. I have lived and owned a home in Green Bank area for 10 years now, and have made a life here, but still find I am frustrated at the limitations that have been placed on me and the other refugees here. At the very least, we need a place to live. A protected area. Although Green Bank is called the "Quiet Zone," and it is better than the outside world, due to no cell towers and smart meters, etc., It is far from perfect and far from the kind of quiet people who have this affliction need. Those of us who suffer this challenge have a right to a place to live on this earth. This has truly become a 'human rights issue,' and we need help.

I am very strongly opposed to these cell towers, especially 6G. I have to use my cell phone with corded headphones or on speaker because I get a massive headache every time I hold it up to my ear. My daughter is also very sensitive to EMF and sleeps much better when we turn our Wifi off at night.

Questions 3, 11, 16 and 18 – Lived experience of EHS I am submitting this response from the UK as an individual with EHS. I am in my mid-fifties and developed EHS in my forties. It became severe enough to fundamentally change where and how I live and work. Q3 – Personal experience My symptoms varied with the type, intensity and duration of exposure, and my sensitivity appeared cumulative. Severe reactions included intense headaches progressing to migraine-like episodes, extreme sensitivity to light and sound, inability to eat, feeling physically out of balance, weakness and exhaustion. I could be confined to bed for 2–3 days before gradually recovering. A significant source of RF/EMF exposure was a cell tower in the paddock I rented for my horses. Over time it carried equipment from approximately six providers. For years I spent around five hours daily within 100 metres of it. Once highly sensitive, I reduced this to about two hours daily, the minimum needed to care for my horses. I also experienced severe abdominal cramps, particularly in association with smart meters, episodes of slurred speech and serious cognitive problems. My short-term memory could disappear to the point that I had no recollection of what I had just said. I sometimes became defensive or unusually irritable when challenged about things I could not remember. At my most sensitive I could not sit in front of a computer screen or be near a mobile phone without symptoms. When cumulative exposure was high, even proximity to a phone in flight mode could sometimes trigger symptoms. I became unable to think clearly, was physically weak and exhausted, and for years could not work or earn a living. I could no longer attend my children's school meetings, shop, visit the doctor or dentist without exposure becoming a problem, or socialise normally. I lost almost all my friendships because I could no longer visit people's homes or meet in wireless public environments. EHS also placed considerable strain on my marriage and has played a significant part in its breakdown. By 2019 I was living with profound fatigue virtually 24/7 and my quality of life had become unbearable. My family and I relocated from Hampshire to rural Mid Wales specifically so I could create an extremely low-EMF environment and attempt to recover. For approximately four years much of my life was devoted to rebuilding my health, strength and stamina. It was a very slow process, but living with greatly reduced exposure allowed me eventually to begin working again. I now operate a business from home. Although considerably stronger, I have not returned to my former life. I generally cannot spend more than around half a day in higher-exposure environments before needing to return home to recover. Exposure affects my nervous system. I use breathwork, particular foods and physical exercises, which help me manage temporarily but do not remove my sensitivity. I still need my very low-exposure home environment, where my body can settle and recover; working with my land and animals also helps me ground. My experience led me to establish The Wireless-Free Farm on our 17.5-acre smallholding in Mid Wales. It is intentionally maintained wireless-free because this remains the environment I need to live and work. We also welcome guests, including people with EHS who struggle to find suitable accommodation. The Wireless-Free Farm is not a lifestyle choice or rejection of technology. It is the practical outcome of the adaptations I had to make to regain a workable life. Q11 & Q16 – Sensitive populations and research I encourage HHS to investigate people with EHS as a potentially sensitive population. Few genuinely low-exposure environments remain, making it difficult for affected people to avoid exposure sufficiently to observe changes. Research should examine cumulative and multiple-source exposure, proximity, duration, pulsed/modulated signals and individual variation, including before and after substantial RF/EMF reduction. People who have reorganised their lives around exposure reduction and low-exposure environments may provide valuable research opportunities. Q18 – Recommendation Please listen carefully to people living with this condition. My experience alone cannot establish scientific causation, but experiences such as mine should not be dismissed because mechanisms remain uncertain. I went from an ordinary, active life to being unable to work, socialise normally or participate fully in society. I had to relocate and redesign my living environment. Reducing my exposure was followed by substantial, although gradual, improvement. Rigorous, independent research is urgently needed. This is not an abstract debate about technology. It affects where we can live, work, travel, receive healthcare, maintain relationships and participate in society.

I live part time in Maine and part time in Massachusetts, on Cape Cod. I started the commute in 2020. I can feel the difference in my body and my mind in each state. It is/was DRASTIC. However, it got really bad this year. When I spent extended periods of time seated in Massachusetts, then got up to do something, I felt like I was going to passout. Just when I thought I was okay, I experienced a power failure in my legs. This only happened when I was on Cape Cod. Then one day, I saw a new 6G tower less than a mile from my home. I made a hat out of Aluminum foil. When I wear it, it NEVER happens. I am sensitive to EMF. I can hear 4G. It is cranked. I am positive that 3G caused my Father's heart attack, 4G caused my Mother's Vertigo, 5G caused mass fatal crashes along our highways, and 6G breaks the Blood Brain Barrier!

My name is Ronda Delaney and I am a targeted individual who is literally tortured by our FBI and CIA with directed energy weapons. MKultra was never shut down only expanded. There is a community of targeted individuals and we need help! You can visit PACTS.org and targetedJustice.com for further information. It’s not a conspiracy, it is happening to us. We believe through FISA 702 warrants they are able to massively invade my privacy. Years ago I was an educated corporate accountant and now I’m disabled. It’s a shame that I’m an American citizen who is tortured in my own home. I have zero privacy, all electronics are hacked and I’m heavily gang stalked. I know who is doing this to me, his name is John Trail in Arizona and he and his family, Debbie, Torey and Tyler and four others are using the weapons on me and they watch me 24/7. He use to work for Florence jail and resides on 425 E 9th Ave., Apache Junction, AZ.

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 a concerned member of the public. I support people affected by wireless radiation and that's why I believe HHS should address this issue. I support HHS taking an active role in examining the potential health and environmental effects of wireless radiation. I urge HHS to carefully evaluate these experiences and the scientific evidence, identify gaps in current research, give particular attention to children and other potentially vulnerable populations, and establish appropriate federal research priorities regarding wireless radiation and public health. For decades, a silent plague has been woven into the fabric of our lives, eminating from the cell phones in our pockets, to the Wi-Fi in our homes and the cell towers that dot our horizons. The NIH spent ten years and thirty million dollars researching how Electro-Magnetic Radiation affects our bodies and finding DNA Damage, Heart Damage and other serious health risks. The NIH quietly ended the study even though we are exposed to six hundred per cent more EMR's in our homes today than we were ten years ago. No more follow ups, updates or answers from NIH after thirty million taxpayer dollars were simply wasted. If you lost a loved one to a needless automobile or truck crash.due to a distracted driver using a smart phone, you would be very upset. Now the public must push the door wide open and demand more than studies. We must demand a fundemental re-evaulation of our relationship with this technology. Thereby prioritizing human biology over corporate convenience and wireless profits. The invisible assualt must end with truly protective limits. Cellphone use was cited as the distraction in 14% of all distraction-affected fatal traffic crashes in 2024. In these crashes, police reports stated that at least one of the involved drivers was talking on, listening to, or engaged in some other cellphone activity at the time of the crash. According to NHTSA, sending or reading a text takes your eyes off the road for 5 seconds, which is like driving the length of an entire football field at 55 MPH with your eyes closed. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that 3,208 people died in distraction-affected crashes in 2024. This is a decrease of about 2% from 3,283 deaths in 2023. The highest percentage of drivers using cellphones in fatal crashes were in the 25-34 age group: 27% of drivers involved in these crashes were using cellphones in some way.
