The dangers to the public from all of this (WiFi/cell-towers/EMF/RF) are far and wide from memory problems, ringing in the ears, insomnia and so much more. Unfortunately, the all mighty dollar is worth more now than a human life and we’ve been sold out. Our food is being poisoned along with the air we breathe. The problem is you all ready know all of this. The real question is, will someone care enough to do something?

Original comment · unedited text

EMF from WiFi Router Caused SLEEP DISTURBANCE. My child had always been a light sleeper until I found out how wireless radiation from WiFi routers could suppress melatonin production. When I turned off our WiFi router at night, my child began to sleep soundly throughout the night. My sleep quality also improved after turning off our WiFi router. There are studies that show melatonin supplementation may offset the harmful effects of non-ionizing EMF radiation.

My13 year old son developed Osteosarcoma on his femur after a year of sleeping with his knee up against a wall that had an aquarium pump attached to the power point behind the wall. When I bought an EMF reader it read at between 1.4 and 9 ut on the MAG setting at the point where his knee would rest against the wall. The aquarium pump itself read off the meter, higher than that meter could read. I can’t help but think that this exposure helped “kick off” the mutation in his leg. He had no other environmental exposure that I know of.

My then seven-year-old child experienced chest pain that felt like "a volcano erupting in (his) heart" after being exposed to radiofrequencies from WiFi routers in a newly-built local library. His chest pain symptoms had occurred only when we went to that library, so we stopped going there.

Later that year, the state of California initiated statewide testing which was done online using wireless laptops. That test day was the first time he experienced chest pain at school.

At age ten, he testified before the California State Assembly in opposition to California Senate Bill 649 (SB 649), a 2017 bill that proposed installing antennas and cellular equipment on public property, including utility poles, streetlights, and traffic-signal poles, which may be located as close as 15 feet to some residential areas.

After having a bad virus I became highly sensitive to bright bulbs, fluorescent or the low voltage led lighting, any length of screen time with phones, some computers, and occasionally near 5g towers. Its a nauseous feeling, combined with a feeling of a hot flash, a feeling of falling and if I am around it too long I feel emotionally numb afterward.

I have to limit emails, responses, doctors visits if they are electronic etc. This can affect driving and more.

Please bring back incandescent bulbs, screen protectors and reduce 5g. Look into red light combating the damage from blue light.

I wore a Fitbit on my wrist and within the first 12 hours my hand became very sore and achy. My mom and husband both wore it for a few days with no impact. I tried it again and it was incredibly painful for me. I called the company and they put me through to their safety department and the person told me to take it off immediately and issued a full refund. I can only use my phone in small increments because my hands hurt when I hold it. I am very certain that my body is highly sensitive to wireless radiation or EMFs and concerned that they are all around me.

There is a lot of available information on this topic. For example... "Biological effects of cell tower radiation on human body": Continuous exposure to microwave radiations from Cell phone towers, TV and FM towers cause serious health problems over the years. Microwave radiation effects are classified as-thermal and non-thermal. The current exposure safety standards are mainly based on the thermal effects, which are inadequate. Measurements have been carried out at various places near the cell towers and it has been found that the radiation levels are very high. This paper reviews various epidemiological and experimental studies, which show significant biological effects far below the current standards. Also, the details of Radiation Shield are given, which consists of orthogonally polarized multiple broad band monopole antennas to absorb the undesired radiation (Neha Kumar, Girish Kumar ISMOT, Delhi, India, 678-679, 2009). "Evaluation study of radio frequency radiation effects from cell phone towers on human health": The presence of a large number of cell phone towers on the roofs of buildings inside cities raises several questions about whether the radiated electromagnetic frequency (EMF) and power spectrum density (PSD) affect the population even if the towers were installed based on the exiting conditions and standards in the cities. This paper aims to answer all these ambiguous questions by measuring the emitted EMF from the local towers built in a small city of Al-Kut in Iraq. This study was set to investigate the health impact of EMF radiation from the cell phone towers and determine how this EMF effects on the human immunity to diseases. The practical measurements were obtained using the EMF meter and the global positioning system (GPS) and employing the geographical information system (GIS). In this paper, two study groups were selected. The first one lived in the area with three installed towers at distance of 50–100 m between them. The second group resided in the area where towers were installed outside its borders at distances of more than 500 m. The results show that the first group suffers from a health problem much more than the second one. In…

I had my first (violent) reaction to WiFi 11/07 when I used my husband's laptop in our

hotel room. I started vomiting on/off the rest of the Sun. night. I was so weak I couldn't stand that morning. He put me into the car in my PJ's to go to our family Thanksgiving event. When I got to our event, I went to bed and slept for 2 1/2 days: didn't know anything during that time. Never moved.

Then when RF switched from Analogue to Digital 06/09, I started having episodes of

my legs going numb: couldn't stand. I took me months to figure out why. I had to

get "wired internet in our house"; no WiFi ever. When I was where any WiFi was,

I'd get dizzy and sick to my stomach until I left the area.

I found ongoing items to help mitigate my extreme sensitivity. But then WiFi is

increasing: Elan Musk's 22,000 communication satellites. About 1/3 of US are hyper-

sensitive or so I've read in a book by Firstenberg, MD- "The Invisible Rainbow: history

of electricity and life. He's hypersensitive.}

1/3 of US are moderately sensitive. Where I live, new build, has materials that are

somewhat limiting the "BEAMS" which I felt the first time I entered the area which is

why I live here.

The EMF Hypersensitivity is something I struggle against anytime I'm away from my

house. I take things w/me when I go to hotel room which help me cope. If these things

that I use didn't exist, I feel I would have expired long ago with medical evidence

as to why/what happened.

There a group of Bio-Initiative Scientists who are aware of the EMF challenges to

the human body and they're trying to get the word out. But the MOBILE PHONE-

tech companies have done all they could to sabotage this information from getting

reliably to the public. Some have even that their lives threatened unless they

shut up. This came together shortly after 06/09 as i recall.

I developed severe tinnitus. Different frequency in each ear. I developed dizziness and severe nausea. So bad I struggled to feed my cats. I heard very deep frequencies in the house. It felt like the room was breathing and caused my cats to growl deeply.

It was so bad I checked into a psyche ward because I couldn't take it. 4 months of severe nausea. 6 days in the facility and symptoms got better.

Went home. Again developed severe nausea. I had to flee my house which went into a short sale.

2 years before that, i was living with my mother,from day 1 of turning on Smart meters, the tinnitus there started. I wasn't sleeping well but my mother couldn't hear the noise. She was 80 tho. So everyone else got up and the noise of the day started. After a few months of barely sleeping, I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. So, I bought said house, which I fled for an apartment. I haven't had a restful night since they forced smart meters and put towers up everywhere. 11 years and not 1 good nights sleep. Imagine night after night when you want to sleep, but even with earplugs in, it's never quiet.

It isn't physical, believe me. And, it's funny how the noise in my ears is different depending where I've lived.

I'm sure the physical damage will show up in time but I've aged a decade in the last year. I look 20 years older than I am.

I'm convinced it killed all 3 cats. Had no health issues, then all 3 dead in a matter of months.
