Dear HHS,

I am writing to participate in the collection of information regarding the biological effects of Electromagnetic fields (EMF’s) and Radio Frequency Radiation (RFR) emitted from all wireless/cellular devices and infrastructure. I am writing under your question: Public Experiences and Reported Potential Adverse Health Effects.

I have been biologically impacted from EMF/RFR for many years. I have a medical diagnosis from my physician and have attached a redacted version of the letter that she provided to the U.S District Court Court stating this diagnosis, and that I would not be able to participate in Jury Duty, due to the biological impacts of the EMF/RFR present in the court's environment-the request for dismissal was granted.

I want to begin by saying that millions of people around the world are biologically affected by EMF/RFR and these numbers are steadily growing as a result of our everyday exposures. In my own life, I have had to make significant changes in order to stay healthy in our modern wireless world. When exposed to EMF/RFR via wireless/cellular devices and infrastructure, I experience biological flu-like symptoms, ear pain and heart palpitations which quickly resolve once I am away from these exposures. While these are the biological effects I observe in the immediacy, I also note that EMF/RFR has been demonstrated to cause inflammation and Oxidative Stress which play out in the body over time.

Protective steps in daily life:

-No wireless devices-everything is hard wired

-Landline- no cell phone.

-Opt-outs for all smart utility meters

-Driving an older car with no EMF/RFR

-Financial investment monthly for extra charges for utility meter opt-outs

-Financial investment into RFR/EMF meter, RFR/EMF blocking curtains, tents. clothing for use when outside the home and when traveling to secure these environments.

For reference:

RFR/EMF blocking clothing-$100- $350 per item

RFR/EMF meters- $300- $500 per meter,

RFR/EMF blocking tents- $1500- $3500

RFR/EMF blocking curtains $300 per set

Utility smart meter opt-outs$10 - $75 monthly per meter.

Daily realities:

-No safety from RFR/EMF anywhere outside home.

-Can no longer work outside of home.

-Necessity of RFR/EMF protective clothing & products outside the home.

-Ongoing difficult asks and conversations with family, friends- regularly

-All appliances, cars, computers, devices have to be hard wired and safe with RFR/EMF; immense and time consuming effort maintaining and finding these resources- ongoing

Considerations

-More and more people are seeing biological effects with growing exposures.

-The industry blocking info on biological & environmental harms and thus the solutions. Bio-effects are 100% preventable.

-Regulatory agencies and policy makers are not regulating this discussion due to the immense power of telecom.

-The U.S. has a poor history with environmental toxicants, action not taken on lead for over 70 years after established as unsafe, similarly with asbestos, PFAS, tobacco.

-Our millennials, the first generation to grow up with significantly increasing exposures to RFR/EMF identified as the unhealthiest generation on record according to the Blue Cross Health of America Report. Directly correlates chronologically to increased EMF/RFR exposures

Solutions; Industry, Regulatory Agencies & Policy Makers:

-Formally acknowledging the biological/environmental effects of EMF/RFR

-Instituting safer biological emissions/exposure standards

-Instituting emissions to be capped at 10 Microwatts per meter squared per all devices/infrastructure- align with biological exposure guidelines.

-Instituting safer designs of cell phones, devices, infrastructure

-Instituting “off means off” on all cell phones, wireless systems/devices-no transmitting in airplane or when wireless options are “off.”

-Instituting factory settings of all wireless devices at the lowest setting and making them adjustable.

-Instituting that EMF/RFR emission standards are set and regulated by HHS/FDA/medical/scientific experts.

- Instituting rules prohibiting those regulating telecom in the FCC/HHS/FDA from being employed by the telecommunication industry for at least 5 years before or after their regulatory position has begun/ ended.

-Re-open the TCA and allowing biological/environmental health and safety considerations.

-Review the New Hampshire Commission's 390 page report and use it as a model for protective policy with wireless radiation.

-Institute the industry assuming legal liability for the safety of their products.

Thank you for your consideration and I hope that you will use this inquiry as an opportunity to make the changes that are both doable and will allow for a healthier, safer and better future for us all.
