I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields(EMF,) Radio Frequency (RF), and Wireless Radiation Exposure. I am responding from the perspective of a concerned member of the public. Both my husband and myself developed tinnitus after a cell tower was installed in our neighborhood. It has caused nervous tension and sleep disturbances for the last 5 years. My husband has also developed repeated issues with vertigo which has dramatically affected our lives.
I support HHS in taking an active role in examining the potential health and environmental effects of wireless radiation. Questions about human health, medicine, biology and public health and the experiences of individuals and families who report having been affected should be considered alongside the scientific evidence.
I urge the 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 the opportunity to be heard.
