Yes! As I child i remember when i phone first came out and i could FEEL the wireless radiation, a slight burning feeling. There was also a segment on The Dr.s show where they laid out six phones from the audience on a table with a glass in the middle. They had each of the phones call each other, the glass fell over. The WiFi, the wireless, the cell towers, all have unknown and harmful impact on human health

I live near a 5G tower that was dismantled a few years ago. Prior to the dismantling, I felt terrible at home on the weekends. At work during the week, I was fine. I work 15miles from my home. When I tried to walk my dog down the street where the 5G tower was located, the dog refused to go near that tower. Since the tower was dismantled, I don’t have to spend my weekends feeling nauseous and weak. Oddly, it didn’t affect my husband or son, but neighbors said it impacted their health when the tower was active.

Severe reaction during the COVID era only months after shots were distributed which proves the spike of issue was in the shots not prior. Jabbed got theirs and spread partial parts of the targeted shot called shedding. I went for months severe headaches post covid type illness and had never had headaches before let alone radiating outward in whole body from head. Faraday canopy and grounded bed helped but once outside it, it started again. Faraday head covering helped during the day and always got worse if I even drove past cell data towers. WiFi seemed one level but the data cell towers were worse. Only thing that worked was Invermectin 12mg daily for 3 days and 5 days off until I reached 30 days off with no symptoms 6+ months later. Then kept treating once a month until about a year past and relief held so no more Invermectin needed.

My 3 year old son was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition after about a year of the installation of a 5G antena a few feet away from our house.

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 parent, and a concerned member of the public. A good friend of the family is a famous osteopath, Dr. Carlisle Holland, who started his college career in electrical engineering and then become more interested in medicine -- so he has an excellent perspective on electronics and their potential impact on health. From what I understand, when FCC was issuing licenses, originally they held the bands 4G and above outside of licensing because they were considered too dangerous to human health. Now we are looking at 6G, which is extremely concerning. When will we draw the line firmly? It is highly concerning that as the signal gets stronger (e.g., from 4G to 5G), it drops off more quickly during transmission, requiring the spacing between stations to be closer. With each bump up in power, there will be more construction needed and each station emitting more powerfully. This is great for construction and/or cell service providers, but not good for the general citizenry. Anecdotally, California is known to have a significant drop in hummingbirds (some places to zero from historically large populations), which may be related to the increase in EMFs. I personally want the choice to limit exposure to EMFs, to avoid documented negative health impacts from high EMF exposure. 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.

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 parent. We used to live in a remote area of England where the nearest 5G cell tower was 6 miles away. Then about three years ago we moved back to the US within 1/2 mile of several towers located by a middle school and children’s sport park. We began experiencing noticeable mystery symptoms we had not encountered before. Our sleep became disrupted, our children started gaining unexplained weight and there is now a constant irritability that plagues our home for no discernible reason. Two of our children are now medicated for mood disorders. I have been doing a lot of research and began to wonder if that the towers might be causing us problems, as most of our other lifestyle choices remain the same. The limited studies I have been able to find do cause me concern and we need to have better information on what is happening to humans as a result of the reckless and rapid expansion of cell towers. It boggles the mind to think cell towers can be put so close to our homes, and without us even knowing about it. All without any proof this is safe. Please do not let cell companies get away with endangering Americans without first examining the health effects on humans, animals and the environment. 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.

Please remove 4G and 5G antennae from public and private spaces. We care for dozens of people who have literally nowhere to live, nowhere to go. These frequencies make them so ill that they cannot function, cannot live in society. They give me arrhythmia and tinnitus and insomnia, but that is nothing to the dastardly effects upon the quality of life of so many of our neighbors and friends. Cancer clusters are endemic around these fields. We cannot afford to lose more good patriotic Americans to biological weaponry. Thank you for taking protective action on the behalf of the People.

ORIGINAL COMMENT · UNEDITED TEXT
I’m a 46 year old mother of 2. Grew up in the 80s. Times have certainly changed. No one talks anymore - no one looks up anymore. They are constantly neck down staring drooling fixating on blue screen - zombie like circadian rhythm disruption so obvious almost as it was meant to provide harm. Cell phone towers next to schools and parks - dumbing the masses down. I have seen the decline of our children our young adults and ourselves slowly. No one is living in real life anymore just in the bubble of wireless nothingness. Radiation is very real - please make these signals harmonious- like the hertz that heal. Make America Wired again!

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 someone who is personally negatively affected by wireless radiation. When they built a cell tower too close to my home, we had to spent a great deal of money to hire people to evaluate how we could protect ourselves from it. Special paints. Special curtains. We are hard-wired to the internet. We do have a wifi router we can use but we cover it with special radiation reducing materials and we limit the times we use it. This personal. And many more suffer a lot more than me from it's effects. 5G is even worse. 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.
