ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
The cell towers and all ff the 5& 6G definitely affects me & my family. I get tachycardia at random times during the day. I don’t want these cell towers around me. While we’re at it get rid of the Flock cameras & the data centers they are feeding. Total Survalnce is not what I want. I want my government to follow the Constitution & support a healthy environment for me & my family. I certainly don’t want to fund this. My name is Mary Quinn from Macon GA.

A British family reports severe symptoms after a base-station upgrade, describing them as Havana syndrome…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
This comment is written for and on behalf of our family of three adults in Britain (UK). We became interested in the subject of the biological effects of electromagnetic radiation (EMR) when our lives changed in an instant after a base station (cell tower) was 'upgraded' in January 2019. We are commenting as this is the first invitation to bring our collective experiences to a government department that is prepared to listen to first-hand accounts of the real cost to people who are injured by over-exposure to wireless technology, then ignored and ridiculed. There is also a huge environmental cost from the damage caused to the natural world from rising EMR emissions which is also being ignored. This is why we are grateful and thankful for the opportunity to raise these issues with the HHS. Since the early hours of 17 January 2019, we quickly discovered that we were all suffering from severe 'Havana Syndrome' effects such as head-bursting tinnitus, nosebleeds, numbed limbs, brain fog, inability to speak fluently, copper taste in the mouth, heart palpitations and insomnia. Our lives are wrecked after years of trial and error in coping and managing an invisible invasion which fluctuates at any moment, whilst being effectively silenced by every government agency and department. We were on our own and that's when we researched the subject, which is ongoing. Due to EMR Syndrome (the recent renaming of the condition), employment, socialising and use of any public facility is almost impossible. We all have microwave hearing, which is 24/7and everywhere we have visited (even in the middle of woodland). Our relatives, friends and neighbours think we have lost our minds. The relentless wireless bombardment has taken its toll mentally, as we have had to deal with extreme life-changing events which mean we have a home that is essentially unliveable in, even though a lot of money has been spent on shielding/mitigation through the advice of a building biologist. Through the years of research, we have discovered a systematic approach of denial from those bodies who do know about the biological effects of all living things from EMR, but hold onto the outdated regulations and limits to enable a world of 'wireless connectivity'; long-planned. The International Commission on the Biological Effects of Electromagnetic Fields (ICBE-EMF) summarises the situation from the perspective of the FCC and ICNIRP. CITATION: International Commission on the Biological Effects of Electromagnetic Fields (ICBE-EMF), (2022). Scientific evidence invalidates health assumptions underlying the FCC and ICNIRP exposure limit determinations for radiofrequency radiation: implications for 5G. Environ Health. Oct 18;21(1):92. From observations and experiences online communicating with many other similar sufferers and interested parties, we hope that the HHS will take advice from research free from industry influence to bring about meaningful and sustainable levels of EMR/EMF compatible with all life on Earth. Organisations such as the WHO, the UN, the ITU and the IEEE must be made to comply, as the obsession with total wireless connectivity of everything (including humans) has to end and not be allowed to be resurrected, ever. In conclusion, our family has suffered in an electromagnetic prison which is impossible to escape from; we see the environmental destruction from these unnatural frequencies escalating, along with ill-health and injury in populations, as 'wireless connectivity' is encouraged and pursued by governments. Decades of research is available and needs to be front and centre in decision-making, along with the more recent emergence of 'gold-standard science' which will help to close the gaps in knowledge. This is a worldwide problem which needs to be reversed to end the pollution and suffering.

Argues that some people are sensitive to low EMF exposures and calls for tighter phone and tower regulati…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
EMF sensitivity is real. some people's nervous systems are reactive to even small amounts of EMF. cell phone standards for radiation are way too lax. at least match Europe's standards, which are a lot lower. the proliferation of cell phone towers/antennae is way too unregulated because exposure is not allowed to be considered in many jurisdictions.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
We really need to lower the EMF radiation lower than what Europe does. The EMF radiation is killing us. There is an unclassified document dated back just after ww2 and even that far back they knew Microwaves cause cancer and sterilization, but didn't report it. We also need to remove all smart meters which are just as bad. We need to go back to full on analog for everything, and really dumb down this push to AI everything. I use a EMF meter and when set to EF which means Electrical field it can go very high to well over 1000vm. From what I read anything over 10 vm is high, so just think how unhealthy 1000 vm is to the human body. Regardless what they say about EMF and how it's harmless it's not. EMF also is in the mountains now, so we can't escape it with towers ever few miles or so. RF signals encompass the earth with Radio signals etc. and it's very unhealthy now. So if we took steps to protect us we would take steps to protect the wilderness too which is why our forests are dying like they have been sine WIFI began... We really need to downgrade back to like 1g and even lower those levels too and not allow 5g or 6g. WIFI is the signal most threat along with AI to mankind!

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I experience bad effects from radiation exposure. Mostly from masts that emit radiation. But also from wifi and mobile phones. I get tension in the brain, are more depressive, less focused, cognitive impact, headache, a feeling of stress all the time and restlessness. I have titan implants in my body which might increase illness.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Submitted by: Beverly A. Jensen, Ph.D. Organization: 10 Million Moms for Safer Telecom 1. Who I Am I am Beverly A. Jensen, Ph.D., a public health specialist with a doctoral degree in Communication from the University of Washington (1987) and over 30 years managing public health campaigns. I am the founder of 10 Million Moms for Safer Telecom, a national mother-led movement to protect children from wireless radiation. The number 10 million is near the 3% that can shift culture and drive safer regulations. I operate KidsandEMF.com and WomensMedicineBowl.com, a science and policy resource since 2003. These comments represent my professional perspective, my lived experience, and the concerns of families I have worked with since 2019. 2. What I Have Observed I am both a public health specialist and an individual with documented adverse health effects from EMF exposure -- mirroring what hundreds have reported to me. 2019 -- Onset of EMF Sensitivity: In early 2019, walking in Washington, D.C., I experienced immediate skin burning near a concealed cell tower, after three months at four feet from a router 8-10 hours/day. In Seattle I measured a router at 297,000 uV/m -- far exceeding the Building Biology guideline of 1,000 uV/m for sleeping areas. Shielding it dropped radiation 97% while WiFi remained functional. A warning label could have prevented years of exposure. July 2020 -- Neurological Symptoms: I experienced severe headaches -- my first in 72 years. An ER MRI confirmed a fully healthy brain. Headaches correlated with high-RF environments and resolved when I left them. No practitioner questioned the environmental variable. Six years later, that is still true. February 2023 -- Cardiac Arrhythmia at 36K feet: Aboard a Lufthansa red-eye with active WiFi, I experienced serious cardiac arrhythmia. No exertion or stress was involved. I required PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic field) intervention twice during the eight-hour flight. Cardiologists had found no structural cause; RF exposure was never investigated. RF is well documented to amplify in enclosed metal containers as devices search for signal. This deserves serious federal attention. What Mothers Are Reporting: Headaches beginning when schools installed WiFi. Sleep disruption resolving when routers were turned off. A 5-year-old with a cardiac event leaving a school yard with a cell tower -- now with permanent brain damage. An 11-year-old needing retina surgery with no prior screen safety guidance. Families in buildings with 140+ networks have fewest options. I exclude myself from most social events due to RF exposure. These symptom clusters -- headaches, tinnitus, sleep disruption, anxiety, fatigue, cardiac arrhythmia -- are consistent across thousands of families worldwide. The medical system fails to investigate. The independent science is in the attached Research Brief. 3. What I Am Asking HHS to Do - Update RF exposure limits to reflect post-1996 science, protecting children in schools, hospitals, and elder care - Fund independent research on long-term, cumulative RF exposure -- not industry-funded studies - Require Safe Use directions and distance labels at point of sale for all wireless devices - Establish a federal clearinghouse for RF-associated health symptom reporting - Coordinate with FCC on minimum-distance rules for cell infrastructure near schools and healthcare facilities - Require warning labels on all wireless devices - Commission a systematic review of electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS) as a recognized condition - Introduce RF monitoring and mitigation standards to OSHA for workplace protection - Establish federal oversight of the proliferation of embedded wireless transmitters in consumer products -- including children's toys, infant equipment, and smart home systems -- where no agency regulates their inclusion and no consumer consent is required 4. Why Mothers Are the Right Constituency The movements that produced lasting change -- lead paint, tobacco, drunk driving, car seats -- were driven by mothers who refused preventable harm. 10 Million Moms for Safer Telecom supplies that same political will around wireless radiation. We are building toward the 3% social tipping threshold. I urge HHS to treat this RFI as the beginning of a sustained policy process. The mothers of America are watching and will hold this administration accountable. Respectfully submitted, Beverly A. Jensen, Ph.D. Founder, 10 Million Moms for Safer Telecom www.KidsandEMF.com www.WomensMedicineBowl.com

Alleges long-running electromagnetic and vibration attacks, cancer, arrhythmia and livestock deaths and r…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Where to start? I've been bombarded with all types and frequencies of EMF. I identify at least 3 types for 12 years. EMF, Microvibration & Macrovibration. I've all the while tried to develop countermeasures, without any real success. I've won many times, but eventually, they always get by them. In fact, after many years of avoiding purchasing lead, I broke down and bought 5/16' lead plating sufficient to cover my bed at night, since that's when they attack for the obvious reason that people are sleep and immobile. Microvibration is the system they use to basically invade the human body, and really, they can do a lot of things with it. It's been involved with creating cancer in my body. I was hit with a massive, massive does of EMF on Nov 7th or 8th of 2017. I describe the pain level I felt on a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being the highest. The pain was higher than a 9. Fortunately, the pain last less than 3 minutes, about 95%. Thank goodness. The surprising thing was and the reason I was sure it was EMF from a celltower is because the EMF left absolutely no evidence at all. My skin looked absolutely normal, so it wasn't a bullet, arrow or anything like a conventional weapon. Since then I've experienced EMF, Microvibration and Macrovibration almost every day since 2016 at least. I've been shot in the top of my head with EMF/Microvibration down to about 2 inches. I have 3 celltowers within 5 miles of my home. My working hypothesis is 4G 3-panel beaming forming arrays and 5G arrays can kill anybody! So, we're all sitting around waiting for the celltowers to go mainstream. Why do I think that? Because, had they shot me on Nov 7 or 8 in the head or heart, I would be dead today. YOU CAN COUNT ON IT! Richard Lighthouse holds an MS in Mech Engineering from Stanford has said the Threat Fusion Center on N Shepherd in Houston has a celltower that can kill anybody from 100 miles away. Two mornings ago I was sleeping in my new truck in Porter, TX waiting to sign checks for my bookkeeper. About 5 am I awoke with massive EMF to my chest and immediately recognized they had given me an arrythmia, a very serious one. I began to pray aggressively. Within about 30 minutes the arrythmia had largely abated and I lived. This was the 3rd time they'd hit me with what it takes to cause an arrythmia. I had no symptoms other than a heartbeat that was clearly out of rythm to a massive degree. EMF. From 2018 to 2021 in July, I had a herd of 121 axis deer. During that time I only had 1 baby axis, which is impossible since axis does can have 3 babies in 2 years. The 1 baby lived and I sold it within 4 days for $500. Then in July, 2021 the Huntsville Exotic Auction called me, a woman I knew, and offered me $800 each for ever axis deer I owned. The Freeze of February, 2021 in Texas killed a lot of native and non-native deer. I should have owned more than 400 head of axis by then, and I didn't have any to sell, costing me well more than $320,000 (I've attached some photos) One attached photo show my #1 axis buck and 3 does I found one morning all dead together where I was able to touch all 4 from the same spot. We moved the axis buck out to take a few photos. He was originally in the middle of the 3 does. I took him very reluctantly to the Large Animal Clinic at Texas A&M University for a necropsy. I was very reluctant because of the trip and $400 for the necropsy. I asked them to spare no expense. 10 days later I got the necropsy back and it showed that they could not tell how the buck died, which is what I predicted and expected, so why take it? Believe it or not, I attributed the breaking of my reluctance to Jesus Christ. In one of those very few times things like that can be attributed to him. I felt he wanted me to do it. In 10 days I went again to College Station and asked to meet with the 3 tops veterinarians. We discussed the necropsy & their findings. I pulled out my photos & showed them the 3 other dead does. I showed them 3 dead deer I found one evening. I didn't have my camera, so I decided to come back the next day & document the scene. Two does heads almost touching, and a buck about 2' away. The following morning I found 5 dead deer, and 1 of the new ones was laid over the body of the buck that died the day before. People did that. In both cases, 1 buck and 3 does, and then 1 buck and 4 does, well, DEER DONOT DIE THAT WAY. There's many other examples just like them, but I have 527 letters left. So I'll say, I haven't even started on the teleportion, cloaking suit, clacking gun and a myriad of other events I've experienced in the last 12 years. I will say one last thing. After 18 months I've concluded there's is at least a partial hologram over the entire night sky, and drones and manmade UFOs are occupying the places many stars should occupy, like the Big Dig, which is 304 Light Years away or 611 Trillion miles. Don't believe me? WATCH AND LEARN, I have a lot of evidence. MUFON is now under FBI control.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Docket (HHS-OASH-2026-0397) I’ve been following the research on EMF radiation for over 10 years and it never ceases to astonish me, and at the same time disturbing, how the rollouts continue one after the other without any regard for human lives, animal life and the environment being destroyed to mine for these materials to make technologies that claim to be cleaner and greener. Far too long overlooked and of equal importance, is the human energy field and it’s role in maintaining health and vitality and what role foreign energy fields play in disrupting this health, vitality from the interactions of natural endogenous and foreign energy fields. We have been incrementally and systematically separated from the Earth’s natural energy fields with shoes that are not compatible, toxic clothing and other disconnects contributing to increased acute disorders and chronic illnesses. Our society has been selling us biologically incompatible goods for quite some time now. As an individual with lived experience and a healthcare professional I didn’t realize the impact until I started to experience symptoms. I began reducing all sources EMF in my home at the time instinctively before I had symptoms because it just felt right based on the reasearch. It wasn’t until after moving from a low EMF area to a high EMF area did my body system experience a type of shock, seizure like activity and development of ME/CFS, dysautonomia, migraines almost on a daily basis, carbohydrate intolerance, anxiety and chronic pain. I now know there are millions of others out there like me who are suffering daily by the continuous overabundance of towers/base stations, smart phones, laptops, wifi, electric & hybrid cars and smart meters and yet for the severe, these services and devices are their only connection to the outside world but what if, they are unknowingly worsening their symptoms and preventing recovery? We shall see in the forthcoming citations in this comment. ....... Complete paper with citations attached

Describes perceived insomnia during wireless sleep testing and remote CPAP monitoring, with improvement i…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Hello, and thank you for finally addressing the harmful effects of EMFs/wifi. In 1999, I was injured in an auto accident that prevented, due to pain, my normal sleep: Without it, within one year, I had become diabetic. Sleep debt is a common cause of diabetes, fyi. This led to my being seen at Stanford Sleep Clinic and to undergo testing there. As I am on Medicare, after my initial verifications of sleep apnea, with need to use CPAP--that occurred in 2001--I was later required twice to redo the sleep study (to continue receipt of CPAP supplies). However, on the second recall--after that of the initial testing and first recall--Stanford had switched from their "plug electrodes on my head into the wall to get their readings of my brain and sleep overnight" to a system that is wholly EMFs emitting wifi. Now, instead of teh electrodes plugged into the wall, I had strapped around my body and over my solar plexus the device holding the leads to the electrodes on my scalp and other measuring devices on my body; further, this data was now being read via wifi. In short, I had been made into an equivalent of a cellphone tower. This was the night that I learned 1,000% I am EMF/wifi sensitive and that I cannot function properly on a normal bodily level nor mental level when directly serving as the conduit. There were no problems getting my first two readings: I fell asleep naturally, like I usually do. With this wifi testing scenario, I could not fall asleep; and it was difficult for them to record, thusly, my need for use of CPAP, for lack of my sleeping normally. So, this is well documented by Stanford Sleep Clinic. This helped explain to me why I felt so abnormal if in touch with a cellphone. Basically, the minute I touch one, I sense a charge going through my body and put it down. It also explained why I was not sleeping normally when a new CPAP machine arrived and was set to read from some distance my nightly activity. Once I realized this, I turn wifi off and go to airplane mode, so I an use the needed CPAP without also experiencing sleep disturbances and insomnia. In airplane mode, I sleep well using CPAP. In fact, I am some sort of miracle with CPAP as a user in my 0.3/hour AHIs--when accepted normal is 5/hour! But, if I am allowing them to monitor me and, thus, not in airplane mode, I am way, way worse than 5 AHIs/hr! So, my WorkForcePro Epson printer is set not to use wifi; my desktop computer does not use wifi; I cannot use a laptop (due to its emitting from the keyboard wifi); and I use a landline, so I do not have brain damage from use of cellphones. As a licensed primary health care provider, I am educated about the health problems associated with use of wifi; and I often end up with clients whose presentations are a direct result of their cellphone and/or laptop usage. I am also highly educated in the realities that the increasing Gs of cellphone towers are harmful to all within range, and that NO research that was not beneficial to the companies advancing this technology was ever considered nor required before approved for societal usage. So, thank you for getting around to learning what that decision has wrought upon the average citizen exposed to wifi whether they know it or not, want it or not. These days, one finds it difficult to find a cruise ship or hotel that is not a total wifi available 24/7 environment, or a place where smart meters are not in use, or a location free from cellphone towers, or even a public space without several involved with cellphones. (Back to sleep studies, what Stanford has is now the norm, so those who cannot be around wifi/EMFs cannot get a sleep study done these days, too!) Technically, the damage to the body is on the cellular level, with the calcium channel blockers being overwhelmed and, thus, cells--all of them in the body--are flooded with calcium, thus injuring the cells and damaging mitochondria; and researchers have demonstrated this repeatedly. I share one researcher's findings in the attached. The first series of images is of live blood looking at the cells, where the first shows the blood after 4 hours of not using wifi and the second shows the blood after carrying the cellphone in a backpack for 45-minutes, and the third shows the live blood after having the cellphone in hand and using it for 2 5-minute calls. The second attached is the same experiment with a different person. As you can see, what was normal becomes abnormal when a cellphone is near or on the body and, too, while in use. This is not normal. So, why are you allowing the entire population to be harmed in such a manner? Dr. Elizabeth Selandia, MLIS, MAIA, MAMS, OMD, CA
