I became eltromagnetic hypersensitive in 2007, when a 2G cell tower was erected less than 1000 ft from our trailer in Naturita Co. I had been watering weeds in hopes of growing something in a desert yard, having recently remarried and moving there. Also I had a deck phone held between my ear and left shoulder while patiently listening to my x-sister-in- law try and convince me to invest in a restaurant in Tulya Texas. This went on for over an hour. Next morning when I got up I saw my face and neck in the bathroom mirror that my cheeks were bright red, my skin around my eyes were baggy, and there was a bright red area around my thyroid atea of my neck , and it was growing in heat and intensity,! I realized then the connections and began wondering what was I going to do, because it was getting worse by the minute, and with it, my mind wasn't doing well either! I prayed , I cried to my husband to help. Already I had been treating cancer of the lungs for seven years with alternative natural medicine, and I had an abiding distrust of regular medical services,and then .. I was finally truly healing and so going to the clinic wasn't obvious to me. But I did understand what must have happened,and my inner instinct was to get as far away from the cell tower as possible and fast! I opened the tiny phone book praying, and saw there was a cafe out in The Basin, a huge flat ranch and oil drilling land some many miles south of town. I called it, the manager a woman answered, and I asked her if she might have a cabin to rent. She did! It was often rented to hunters, but this was summer, and so it was a available. I had the money from my divorce, and packed up and went there. My husband brought me food and water for the month it took for this thermal burning to subside!I became friends with that woman, and strange as life sometimes is, now I am one of four Caregivers taking care of her aged father,19 years later! But as that may be, this horrible condition repeated 11 times over the next 9 years, and every time ,I tried to come home and resume life with my husband the thermal burn would come back. This would include my skin debriding from my face and neck, and my brain barely able to function, while I had kept moving to remote locations to recover.my husband had work so he couldn't just be with me. Eventually he found on the Internet that people who have EMH if they have exposed metal in their mouths can suffer extreme from thermal burns from cell towers radiation. We found a dentist who agreed to remove my remaining upper teeth , so as to remove the titanium bridge partial I had for the previous 6 years and replace it with a resin denture.I moved into inadequate housing nearer to town, as slowly I was getting better. I took in a homeless elder abandoned lady by her family who was 91, and got signed up to take care of her under the CDAS Program, because I have certification as a CNA.She lived the last 6 years of her life with me. It took those years to get the metals out of my blood so that I can withstand using a cell phone and being in what we consider normal radiated environments. But it's not OK. I am not a quiter, I know of many people who became homeless because of their sensitivity to microwave radiation! I joined groups to help bring awearness of this scourge,and to get feedback about this issue. I have a reputation in my small town about this and many people are still confused about it. This was like a natural disaster economically for us! One which few recognized! I recognize we are all suffering. Tinnitus, headaches, fibromyalgia, thyroid diseases, kidney failure, rapid aging, just to make sure. 5G is a bio weapon. So please stop it! My town of Nucla is engaged with Virtible Bridge to relocate a contracted 5 G tower after strong opposition to it. Our little phone co. Is considering putting up one too. The combined towne of Naturita, and Nucla 's population is about 1500. We have too much cell coverage already! Other Nations have limited the frequencies, why can't we!Thank you Annie Gibbons

Im a Canadian. Targeted at least since 2014. There are people committing suicide over this tech out here. Ppl dying of arrhythmias. There are people in crisis. Homeless and who have lost everything. We need information. We need help. We need a bigger and more comprehensive investigation

I'm encountering V2K technology which enables direct auditory communication with individuals’ brains through electromagnetic waves, which is significant for both military operations and raises ethical implications regarding privacy and consent.

Thank you for finally addressing this critical and profoundly underacknowledged topic. In the modern world, we are routinely exposed to levels of EMFs that are many orders of magnitude higher than the environment in which we evolved (I don't have the numbers before me – if HHS doesn't have these numbers, I strongly encourage you to establish them) – I believe the comparison I've seen was some ridiculous discrepancy on the order of trillions if not higher. That alone is cause for suspicion. Electromagnetism is one of the fundamental forces of known reality; it is inconceivable that we would ratchet up the levels of electromagnetic fields and not cause profound, complex changes to our biosphere and our human bodies. Yet our society's understanding of this topic has remained infuriatingly ignorant, relative to what is known scientifically on the topic (what is not known scientifically, and thus is in urgent need of more study, is also relevant). There has been a willful ignorance, a tendency to shun discussions of this topic as 'tin foil hat conspiracy' stuff. I believe this has been encouraged if not outright orchestrated by the communications and technology industries; EMF and related emissions/pollution are a core externality of their business model (this need not necessarily be so; there are ways to change/harmonize/reduce the EM that comes from technology – this should be pursued and studied and implemented with vigor). Regulation has long been myopically focused on thermal effects from EMF, which do not manifest until intensely high doses; thus, relatively low dose (though still very very high doses) EM emissions have been dismissed, if they do not cause thermal impacts. The scientific literature on this point is robust, and clear: the game is all about the non-thermal effects. Non-thermal effects from EMF/RF/wireless non-ionizing radiation, documented in scientific literature, are diverse, and concerning; they include a far broader array of impacts than I'll be able to recite here. Cancer, yes, but also irritability, anxiety, alterations to cellular calcium channels, depression, sleeplessness. I mention these because I strongly suspect that the sky-high levels of EMF-type emissions we bathe in daily are causal to some degree in the disturbed mental health and general sense of dis-ease in our modern world. People widely report being depressed, being anxious, and we see the impacts in our fractured social ties, polarized social discourse, disintegrating families and communities. The physical health harms of EMFs are highly important, and deserve your priority attention; and so, too, the mental health harms. Thank you for addressing this topic. I wish you well in your study, and encourage you to take this comment as a framework for your understanding of the issue.

I was targeted with EMF frequencies from February to July 2020. only by the grace of God that I was saved from this. this is inhumane, very damaging psychologically. physically, spiritually. It is real. I am a civilian. civilian never worked for the government and am a political conservative who worked for a non-profit for a short time. I had to move from the Washington DC area to escape this, away from family, at times. times they turn the frequencies up so high that I almost checked myself into the emergency room. this is immoral, unethical, whether it is legal or not and it should not be. on an innocent civilian. Yes, it happens. if you need to contact me then you should reply to this.

For a few years I have been experiencing burning and facial and teeth pain from RF Electromagnetic frequency. I have a meter I purchased to measure what was causing my pain. I feel something should be done to protect us from too much radiation. Thank you for your help in this matter.

I am submitting these comments in response to HHS's Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMF's), Radiofrequency (RF), and Wireless Radiation Exposure. I am responding for myself, my father, older sister and my son. Myself: I was sickened by the Electrical (ComEd) Smart Meter in March 2018, caused Heart Palpitations (AFIB), Sleep issues, Agitation, Anxiety like feelings, I connected the dots due to a notice being placed on my front door from the electrical company stating they had just installed the new Smart Meter. I called ComEd and a gentleman in a Hazmat suit uninstalled the meter with in 5 days (for a fee $75 and I pay $22 a month to have it manually read), they have shared after putting back the old Analog Meter, that the Smart Meters are no longer Mandatory in Illinois. Once the the Smart Meter was removed all my symptoms went away. I also uninstalled the Village Smart Water Meter having same issue. I was diagnosed EHS (Electro hypersensitive) in 2019 by my Holistic Doctor, he shared that he has had (15) patients with the same experience once the Smart Meter was placed on their home. I also struggle severely with the newer Apple 4G/5G Cell Phones (10 - 17), within seconds of holding my phone I get agitation in my hands, anxiety feeling that lead to heart palpitations so strong. I now feel secondhand cell phones, can not go into large gatherings, Church auditorium, Theaters, Music venues, Airplanes, Airports, etc. And yes, the Apple safety guidance buried in the phone is true, use Hands Free & Speaker. I am now being challenged with our Community getting blanketed with 5G Antennas, placing them 10' feet from an apartment building on the west side with the safety sign being place on the top of the pole stating this antenna may exceed the FCC Safety Guidance and little stickers stating you need to be 10' away to be safe. Does it exceed, no one knows locally. I know it does because I feel the cell towers and small cell antennas, unfortunately I have a light pole on my property 30' from my bedroom window and our Village President shared the FCC can put up to (2) antennas per light pole. I will be forced to move at that point because I can not be in my home safely, outside in my gardens or safely walk around my neighborhood. This is a very concerning matter to be forced to leave your home after living there 40 years. And, where do I go to be safe?? That is unfortunately the reality, where do you go with having EHS to be free from all the wireless Radiation?? My Father's story: He was sickened for (2) years starting in 2016, having Heart Palpitations (AFIB), Gut issues, Dizzy episodes, Sleeping issues from Smart Meter installed on his bedroom wall, WiFi Router under his desk, WiFi Boosters installed where he sat in his kitchen dining table and family room chair. After my story, I was able to see why he was having all these mysterious symptoms, he was never getting a break from wireless radiation. He would go to rest in his bedroom after being dizzy at his dining table (WiFi Booster) to be hit again with the Smart Meter on his bedroom wall. Once all the wireless radiation items were removed his symptoms all went away but he had some continued energy issues and gut issues remain (Autoimmune disease). My Older Sister's Story: She was sickened in 2015 having mysterious symptoms for (3) years, Muscle ache, Extreme Anxiety, Gut issues, Energy issues from (4) ComEd Smart Meters outside her bedroom window living in a Condo, along with (57) WiFi from densely populated area. Once my story hit, I was able to see her issue. Once the Smart Meters were covered with Safety Guards her symptoms improved but she ended up moving to a more rural area, is doing better but still dealing with low energy and gut issues (Autoimmune Disease). My Son's Story: He was attending College at Northern Illinois University living in an Apartment building, University Plaza on campus, started having headaches after (3) months of living there, getting more severe. He mentioned to me one night on a phone call that they where installing more bars on the roof/Elevator Shaft. I asked him to immediately send me a photo, to find out they where installing Cell Tower Units, 60' feet from my son's bedroom window (Verizon & AT&T). I removed my son from that apartment building that evening and his headaches went away. I wrote a letter to the building management begging them to protect the students and remove the cell towers off the roof. Ballroom Dance Friend Story: My dance friend came up to me 2023 and shared she now understands why I sit in the back of the Ballroom away from other folks cell phones. She was diagnosed with stage (4) cancer tumor right under her Bra strap, carried her cell phone there frequently. Her doctor said she is seeing tumors at the bra strap and also at the waist line of workout pants where unfortunately woman are choosing to carry their cell phones. My friend passed away.

I have dealt with this for 3 years now since whistleblowing on a corrupt Philadelphia police officer, and a local police officer from newtown township, Pa. I have documented sim swapping from 3 separate providers. And have experienced anomalous health incidents most recently being a perforated ear drum from no head trauma. I have been dealing with the fake Tinnitus like ringing, and am also a sound engineer, capable of measuring sound waves which shows the use of infrasound as well. This is horrible! Please help!

Requesting regulations on Emfs, and Rfs DEW

I am very concerned regarding all emf’s. I became very interested in researching this topic several years ago. (10yrs) when I purchased an iPhone. My fingers are very sensitive to the screen. Then in 2017, we installed solar panels on our home and I started to feel the pulsating pulse in my ear as I would park my car in our garage. Between the smart meter that was installed in Feb 2017 and the solar panels in 2017, I immediately felt the pulsating in the ear. Luckily I found a faraday cover for my smart meter and the pulsation was reduced, but that doesn’t help the tinnitis I feel as well. Then over the years, the installation of 5g towers have worried me as well. These towers put out signal for 5 miles. There is literally no safe place to be. Within our homes with the WiFi or outside. I really wish there was a better way to mitigate these signals. This topic needs to be studied from the effects of cell phone exposure to 5g towers. The last studies origiante from 1970. Please look at the EGW studies they have been doing the studies. Thank you.
