Reports balance and cognitive difficulties while living near numerous towers and transmission lines. Rais…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am a single woman living in a suburb with 37 cell towers within a 2 mile radius of my home. In addition, there are two transmission lines, and all of them are blasting me with electromagnetic radiation. 24/7. My phone app tells me that I am in a dangerous area with high levels of harm from the radiation. None of these were here when I moved to my home. In addition, children’s schools have had huge, tall, cell towers constructed right close to the schools, causing harm from radiation to our precious children. I have been having balance issues, foggy thinking, memory problems, and a feeling of dullness in my head. I think it’s criminal that we are being bombarded with this radiation. No one asked us if we wanted these towers blasting us constantly. On top of that, I have to watch the planes, dropping all of their nano particles, heavy metals, poisonous chemicals of all kinds, biological weapons, polluting our water, polluting our crops, falling on our bodies and being inhaled into our lungs. If our government cannot see the harm in all of this, then we citizens need to wake up and do something about it.

Reports recurrent hand tingling during phone and wireless-mouse use and improvement after switching to a …

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
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 who has personally experienced symptoms that I believe may be associated with exposure to wireless devices. For several years, I have experienced a recurring and increasingly concerning problem involving wireless devices, particularly when they are used near my hands. When I use my cell phone for an extended period of time, my right hand begins to develop a pronounced tingling sensation. At times, it becomes difficult and uncomfortable to text, type, or even scroll on the phone. On some occasions, I have needed to wrap a cloth around the phone in order to continue using it. I experience a similar problem with my wireless computer mouse at work. After using it for a period of time, my right hand begins to tingle and becomes uncomfortable enough that I have difficulty using the mouse. I have repeatedly had to disconnect the wireless mouse and switch to a wired mouse in order to continue working. I am actually experiencing this tingling in my right hand while writing this comment. What concerns me most is the recurring pattern. The symptoms occur during prolonged use of wireless devices in close proximity to my hand, and I have found that switching to a wired device allows me to continue using the equipment without the same problem. I recognize that my personal experience does not establish the cause of these symptoms, but I believe the pattern deserves to be taken seriously and investigated. I also work in a school environment, where I regularly see children using wireless technology, including cell phones, tablets, computers, and wireless headphones. This has made me increasingly concerned about the amount of wireless radiation to which children may be exposed throughout their daily lives. In addition to personal devices, people are surrounded by wireless infrastructure, including cell towers and increasingly widespread 5G technology. We are living in an environment of substantially greater and more continuous wireless exposure than previous generations experienced. I have researched my symptoms and found that I am not the only person who reports experiencing unusual sensations or other symptoms associated with wireless-device exposure. While I understand that individual experiences and anecdotal reports are not a substitute for scientific evidence, I believe they should be taken seriously as a reason to conduct further research and investigate unanswered questions. 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.

Provides quoted research and news accounts concerning cattle behavior, reproduction and other farm-animal…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Hi, I would like to forward these EMF related articles to you. Germany 1: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/288569900_The_effect_of_electromagnetic_transmitters_on_behavior_of_dairy_cows “Some farmers, however, have reported abnormalities in the behaviour of their cattle since the electromagnetic fields have been established. Therefore, this study was conducted to examine the behaviour of cows exposed to a high-frequency electromagnetic field. Investigations were carried out on 29 milk farms with different levels of exposure to an electromagnetic field. All cows were kept in stanchion stables during winter. From May to November, on 8 farms they were also observed on pasture. Farms were grouped according to their electromagnetic exposure levels, and data were compared between groups. Significant differences were found in lying behaviour, daily behaviour profile on pasture and ruminating behaviour, which could be interpreted as the cows’ response to these fields. Findings could be interpreted as chronic stress and show a biological effect of a high frequency electromagnetic field.“ Germany 2: https://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/natur/magnetsinn-ueberlandleitungen-stoeren-kuh-kompass-a-613843.html "Overland lines disrupt cow compass Cattle, deer and roe deer are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation. Researchers have found this when evaluating satellite photos. The animals usually graze in a north-south direction. However, near power lines, the orientation is random. The discovery of a magnetic sense in cows and deer caused a stir in the summer of 2008. Scientists at the University of Duisburg-Essen found thatwhen eating, the animals often face north-south. . The phenomenon was discovered in Google Earth images of 308 pastures worldwide. Now biologists Hynek Burda and Sabine Begall have followed up. When cattle and deer graze under a high-voltage line, their internal compass is disturbed, they report in the journal “Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences”. If the overhead lines are northwest or southeast, the orientation of the animals was random. However, with east-west running lines there was a noticeable tendency to orientate in an east-west direction. However, the scientists rule out that the animals are visually oriented towards the wires. The new study confirms that the animals had an internal compass, as high-voltage lines also generate an electromagnetic field. Its effects were more clearly visible the closer the animals were to the line." Denmark: https://www.tvsyd.dk/vejen/koerne-drikker-hinandens-urin-nu-vil-gregers-have-erstatning "Gregers Kristensen has been a farmer for over 20 years, and for many months he has had difficulty recognising his cows. They will not drink from the water in the barn. Instead, they drink each other's urine. - This is very unusual. I have never seen this behaviour in animals before, he says. According to Gregers Kristensen, the cows started behaving strangely at the same time as the converter station, which is part of Viking Link, was started up a few hundred metres from the barn. It transmits large amounts of electricity to, among other places, the UK. But according to Gregers Kristensen, there is a leak of electricity from the converter station that ends up in the water in the barn. Therefore, he is convinced that it is the large energy plant that is the cause of the animals' behaviour, which means, among other things, that they will not drink from the water. - I am absolutely sure that there is a connection, he says. - I can see that it has an impact on my animals, and I also think that it has an impact on us humans. That's why I would like this to be investigated thoroughly if such large energy plants are to be built, says Gregers Kristensen." France: https://www.ouest-france.fr/economie/agriculture/des-impacts-des-champs-electromagnetiques-sur-les-elevages-une-etude-tente-dy-voir-plus-clair-117e2896-0d40-11ef-8ec1-43107fb4d6b9 "From June 26 to August 31, 2023, this investigation concerned all breeders in mainland France located within a 2 km perimeter of relay antennas, electrical installations and wind turbines. 2,483 questionnaires were returned, allowing « to understand like never before the situation of exposed farms »." ... Dairy farmers are the most likely to report disturbances to their cows. Among respondents who report problems in their animals, it is farmers located less than 2 km from an antenna who report the most of these problems" "Concerning disturbances, breeders cite behavioral disorders (avoidance of certain places, agitation…), clinical signs (decrease in performance and production, reproduction problems, loss of appetite…) or even mortality of animals. The investigation also reveals a link in the responses between a particular physical characteristic of the soil (presence of water veins, faults, cavities…) and an electromagnetic manifestation."

Reports severe headaches attributed to EMFs and an episode while traveling between cell towers. Links the…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Hi, I want to comment on how horrible EMFs are for me. I have heavy metal poisoning, just like a large portion of the citizens of the USA. The heavy metals often go into the brain tissue. Thus, whenever I am in the vicinity of a really strong signal of EMFs, it affects my brain and gives me massive headaches, like as if it is frying my brain! Yes, I know that sounds unscientific, but I have read plenty of professionally researched articles that say EMFs damage the brain. For example, the last time my husband and I drove from Western PA over to Rte. 322 and down to Harrisburg, PA, we were passing an area between two cell towers, and I started to cry and scream, holding my head from all of the pain. I told my husband, "That may be the fastest route to drive between visiting friends in Western PA and visiting our daughter, but we are NEVER driving through that region again! That was like being tortured, and my head still hurts, even after we've passed the worst of that area for EMFs."

Argues that 5G towers cause neurological symptoms and environmental damage, alleges a military-surveillan…

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
5G antennas and towers are extremely harmful to humans. They disrupt our sleep, cause brain fog, cause body twitching, ear ringing and tinnitus among many other unknown ailments. They also kill trees, plants and grass. They DO NOT improve mobile or WiFi service, they are a military surveillance tool and need to be outlawed immediately.

The commenter reports tinnitus and intermittent dizziness after new utility-pole equipment was installed …

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
Thank you so much for your continued support of Humanity. In May,2024, Duke Energy installed new poles in our neighborhood. Reason was preparing for hurricane season. No other street had this action taken. Just our small street. On each new pole was a black device NOT on the previous poles. No other street had these devices. Within six weeks of the installation, my ears began to ring. Never experienced this before. The ringing sound changes tone. Changes from ringing to a clicking noise. Then the dizziness started. Not everyday, not consistently. Just every now & then, a “blast” of something affects my balance . Just for seconds. My husband is experiencing the same. I asked myself what had changed ? The answer seemed to be the new poles. I called Duke Energy. Got the run around without any answers. I persisted until I was told the black devices were just the transformers, nothing to see here! Except they don’t look like the other transformers, these are on every pole installation. I think we are part of an experiment by Duke Energy. Now, I can’t prove anything. The ringing in my ears still continues, the moments of dizziness continue . I live in Lake Mary Florida. You may contact me if necessary.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I am electromagnetically sensitive. I bought a monitor to the Swedish standards in the early 80s which I could work on, but when my employer adopted computers in the late 80s there was no shielding. I had to leave. In the early 2000s I wired my house for ethernet cables and used shielded computers, but now there are cell towers encroaching on my house spreading cell signals RIGHT inside my home! I don`t use a cell phone but that does not protect me from everyone else`s cell towers. My daughter is far more electromagnetically sensitive than I am, We do not use a microwave and everything is ethernet or wired but she still got cancer from the cell towers encroaching more and more everywhere, including upon our home. There are no safe places anymore. I have severely disabled friends who have either died or are dying because of there being no safe places anywhere without cell towers where they can get food, water and sanitation. Now they are trying to take our landlines!!! They don`t want to maintain the wires for our phones! But we depend on wired phones! The captured regulators insist that the only harmful effects are thermal, which ignores decades of research and our lived experience. I consider anyone who uses a cell phone to be complicit in the murder of people I know and valued, included activists who were trying to educate the public. Like the tobacco firms before them, the tech firms are casting doubt on the real research, and regulators turn a blind eye to the harms because this industry brings in so much money and is so powerful a lobby. See Dr. Olle Johansson`s work and the Cellular Task Force, see the Bio Initiative Reports (https://bioinitiative.org/), see many other sources. Ask those suffering from the impacts and those who have no safe place to survive because cell towers are everywhere now and who are dying as a result. No one is counting their deaths. Some are now also cut off from all medical care because clinics and hospitals are contaminated with wifi and cell towers and cell phones. These people are marginalized and can not access work or incomes due to employers using wifi and cell phones and with towers on their buildings or across the street, so they have no way to save themselves anymore. EVERYTHING can be done with wired devices and it should be required that people do so. Convenience at the cost of killing off a % of the population that are the canaries is genocide and will eventually take down the rest of the population with them. And now the absolute insanity of tampering with the ionosphere and the earth`s natural electromagnetics could cause an extinction level event, including from satellites beaming destruction from above. Not to speak of blanketing the atmosphere with microwaves and not expecting that to cause fires and increase the warming of the planet -- and doing so from space of all things! The Roman Empire collapsed partly because it was using technologies that were convenient but which it didn`t understand fully -- like lead pipes in aquaducts. We are doing the same thing with electromagnetic radiation. You see convenience but you don`t want to see the poison that may well collapse our society.
