I couldn’t get over how the utility wouldn’t remove something that was waking me up and known to be a contributor to my new health issues. Was there any compassion? They must have been annoyed with my pleas every other day. Did anyone care? The news outlets wouldn’t listen and just made fun of me. Attorneys that I spoke with had never heard of such a thing. Nobody had written a book on how to deal with this. It was similar to an episode of the Twilight Zone. After finding the “Milgram Experiment” I promptly took on the nickname for my handle in comments section in articles about sleep and health issues. Trying to get the information out about the smart meter. My day consisted of eating, sleeping, and research. I bought cases of paper and printed everything I could find to explain why this was happening to me. I went over to my parents house and asked them about waking up at this odd 3am hour and found that they too were experiencing the same. My mother had been experiencing migraines. Then I asked my sister who lived next door and she was also waking at the same time plus she was experiencing tinnitus. Next, was a brother down the street and then another brother across the street along with a sister far down the street and everyone was waking at the same time. I covered the neighborhood checking to see if anyone else was having the same problem. It took me two weeks to survey 38 homes and out of the 38, just 32 were experiencing waking up at the same time. I tried to be as nonbiased as possible asking “are you noticing recently waking up in the middle of the night?” All 32 said yes and some told me the exact time I was experiencing. Some wondered why their dogs would bark in the 3am hour. The six that hadn’t noticed a difference had always suffered from insomnia. It started off with noticing my hair falling out as it would drop on printed pages while reading the research papers. I found it easier to read hard copies rather than on a computer. That info can be found today at a website now called zoryglaser.com. The papers went everywhere with me and I couldn’t stop reading. They of course were showed to my friends and family to the point of burning everyone…

Argues that existing RF standards are supported by evidence and that behavioral phone risks deserve priority. Requests independent holistic study of reported symptoms, rigorous methods and protection against exploitative RF-safety products.

Original comment · unedited text

The biggest known risks from cellphones is distracted driving and the negative impact on physical and mental health from being sedentary and increased social isolation. These risks are not caused by the RF from the device, and funding for research on RF should not distract from the need to address the fundamental needs for good exercise, social connections, and mental health. HHS / NIH should prioritize gaining a holistic understanding of individuals who attribute adverse health effects to RF. This should be done in-depth and by researchers who are independent and agnostic about any single potential cause. This should be done to get an understand of this cohort. If seeking to investigate RF, a pilot study should be done to match individuals with controls with similar backgrounds - but exposed to different levels of RF. There may be individuals who are subject to a significant amount of RF in there workplace that may serve as good controls for high exposure. HHS should be mindful that many individuals concerned with RF are vulnerable and may be targets for fraudsters who are preying on them to offer "RF safety" and promoting their false pay-for-credentials and "expert" designations by prominent but dubious RF safety organizations. The current evidence and large studies strongly suggest that FCC's current RF standards are safe. However, the financial risks from anxiety over RF are real from buying useless fraud products and services, to extremes of quitting jobs and moving. HHS should not empower the fraudsters with statements that are not based on strong, gold standard science. Bad science is "fishing expeditions" where random chance in a subgroup lead to a conclusion -- Type 1 errors are not 0%, studies are typically powered to 5% for the PRIMARY endpoint, false positive conclusions for sub-upon-sub-analysis and poorly designed studies are higher. HHS should identify where there are gaps to investigate, but be clear to concerned individuals that the solutions are free - use a wired connection, turn-off electronics when not in use, use a landline - but there is currently NO evidence that any of these actions are needed. HHS should review information from…

Opposes further 5G expansion without independent assessment, requests research on cumulative exposures and vulnerable people, transparent standards and conflicts, wired choices and community participation.

AI-reviewed source analysis of the original text, not verified medical findings. Attachments are not reviewed.

Original comment · unedited text

I oppose further expansion of 5G infrastructure without a thorough, transparent, and independent evaluation of potential health and environmental impacts. I urge HHS to prioritize public health and address the concerns of people who cannot readily choose or control their exposure.

I ask HHS to support independent research into long-term exposure, including potential effects on children, pregnant people, and individuals reporting sensitivity to wireless devices. Reports of adverse symptoms deserve respectful investigation, with careful assessment of possible causes.

Please evaluate whether existing exposure standards adequately address real-world conditions, including exposure from multiple sources over time. Findings, uncertainties, funding sources, and conflicts of interest should be clearly disclosed to the public.

I also urge federal agencies to support wired connectivity options, accessible exposure monitoring, and meaningful community participation in decisions about infrastructure near homes, schools, and workplaces.

My position is no to continued 5G expansion without stronger public accountability and a credible, independent assessment of health and environmental concerns. Public health must come first.

Why do I have to beg for sanity? Is it due to the greed and monopoly of Capitalism? Why must I beg for people to not get Cancer or other health issues?

I suppose begging has been done for centuries if not much longer, so I guess that I'm just a part of the billions of beggars under this cancerous system of acquisition and infinite growth. Of course I'm begging a government 40 trillion dollars in debt, so there's that. But what does that matter if we have the largest nuclear arsenal.

Baby monitors influence on sleep. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpubh.2024.1481537 "Does radiofrequency radiation impact sleep? A double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, crossover pilot study" ... "Materials and methods Study design Radiofrequency device, exposure set-up, and power dosimetry The study involved a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover design over 4 weeks on healthy adults at their homes in Melbourne, Australia. We compared 7 consecutive all-night exposure to either an active or inactive (sham) pulse-modulated radiofrequency device. The device used was a commercially available Uniden baby monitor (BW 3001 model), consisting of a digital wireless monitor and digital wireless camera with two-way walkie talkie capability. This device has a transmitting power of 15 dBm and employs a frequency range of 2.4 to 2.4835 GHz using a frequency-hopping spread spectrum system (FHSS) with Gaussian Frequency Shift Keying (GFSK) modulation to avoid interference. The units were tested prior to randomisation to determine the level of radiation emitted. This was done by placing them two metres apart and using a Gigahertz HF59B Analyser with UBB27 omnidirectional antenna (frequency range between 27 MHz to 3.3 GHz) and a Gigahertz HFW59D Analyser with UBB2410 omnidirectional antenna (frequency range between 2.4 GHz and 10 GHz). The metres were set at Peak and Peak Hold to establish the minimum and maximum levels over the course of 1 h, which were determined to be between 2.2 and 7 mW/m2. This is well within the International Commission for Non-Ionising Radiation Protection public guidelines of 10 W/m2 for frequencies above 2 GHz within the far field zone averaged over 30 min and the whole body (37)." ... "Results While the goal was to recruit 20 participants, due to the strict inclusion criteria and impact of the pandemic, data from only 12 participants were evaluated. Summary statistics for the primary and secondary outcome measures are outlined in Table 1. Sleep quality as indicated by the PIRS-20 was found to be significantly reduced during RF-EMF exposure compared to placebo exposure (p < 0.05) as illustrated in Figure 2. Three participants…

Hi, I am writing to you as a very concerned individual with regards to the growing risks of EMF for me, my family and everyone around us. In the quest of making things more fast, automated and the wish to be able to access the internet literally everywhere we have forgotten to study the adverse effects its causing us humans. United States is one of the countries who can take lead in researching this. This comment section is full of real life examples of people who have first hand effects, cancers, tumors etc caused because of direct, prolonged exposure to devices / machines with high EMF. I am requesting department of HHS to please take this as a priority and look into this. We need to have strict guidelines and educate the masses on adverse effects of EMFs. We need to protect the human race, animals and nature. Please look into this.

I am an individual who has been dealing with an injury from wireless radiation for the past 10 years. I was originally injured from a close (~3 ft.) exposure to a wifi router that was recommended by my telephone company. After 20 minutes of exposure, I was sick for months. I still have constant headaches and tinnitus, and intermittent dizzyness and nausea with disorientation. All my symptoms are worsened by repeated exposure (grocery shopping, etc.). This injury has severely limited my tolerance for being out in the world. I cannot tolerate the radiation in hospitals, and would not be able to go there if I needed help. These energies are very damaging to our bodies, and need to be altered to make them less toxic or eliminated in our environment. We are all being damaged, in my opinion, even if many people do not recognize it yet. I implore you to make all the efforts you can to protect our health.

There are hundreds of studies out there, which I am sure you are aware of. I don't have any to share with you. Just read them!

I cannot use a mobile phone as one to my ear to take a few seconds of a call gives me headache for 24 hours. Even a text received when the mobile is in my hand sends a painful shock to my hand, which extends up my arm and can last for hours. I cannot be near wifi as I feel an ache from the buzz and unpleasant sensation it gives off. For some years, the wifi router was on my desk or in my study. I developed bladder cancer. I now use ethernet in the whole house, as do my family.

I am a film producer that made a 90 minute feature documentary film about how to treat over exposures to chronic electromagnetic microwave fields from wireless technology....It's called Tesla's Medicine: The Universal Fluid. It's available to watch on Amazon and Tubi. There are beneficial low frequency electromagnetic fields that emulate the earth's resonate frequencies (about 10Hz) that can remove the harmful effects of wireless technology from your body. We have lost contact to the earth's natural magnetic field....

Doctor OZ made a television show about these devices....it's called PEMF - Pulsed Electro Magnetic Field therapy.....One solution is to have DR OZ talk about this technology to the general public like he did on the Dr OZ show. The general public should buy these devices, bring them into their home, and use them to remove the electrosmog that can contribute to chronic illness...It's amazing technology. Very safe and it's actually invented by Nikola Tesla....It's time to reintroduce electromagnetic field therapy to the general population....

I am EHS [electromagnetic hypersensitive] and am severely affected by electromagnetic radiation (EMR). I am also deeply worried about the future of my children, who have been immersed in harmful "electrosmog" since childhood. We urgently need to raise awareness about these dangers and lower exposure thresholds as soon as possible—before we find ourselves facing an unfolding genocide, at which point it will be too late to take any action. Some genetic mutations are already irreversible

Original comment · unedited text

Center for Electrosmog Prevention, a 501c3 nonprofit, was established in La Mesa, California in May, 2011, with a mission to promote the general public health by providing advocacy and education, information, and solutions regarding electrosmog, a manmade form of electromagnetic pollution. EMF's (electromagnetic fields), RF (radiofrequency) radiation (in the microwave and millimeter wave range in particular), and rf radiation from a wide range of wireless devices such as cell phones, smart utility meters, baby monitors, wifi, Bluetooth, and a multitude of others now being marketed to the unsuspecting public are a major health hazard documented by tens of thousands of research studies. These dangers to health include - but are not limited to - multiple forms of cancer (including glioblastoma), immunological, and inflammatory effects - in numerous studies linked to the development of Alzheimers and autism, damage to DNA, and infertility. The industries profiting off wireless technologies have been very influential in vigorously denying health hazards at most governmental and major health organization levels, worldwide, much as the tobacco industry has defended its marketing of a toxic product over the decades. Meanwhile, cancers are on the rise - including those that can be linked to cell phone use - as well as Alzheimers and autism, and many people (it is said to be 1-2% at least) are becoming hypersensitive (electrosensitive) to rf radiation, causing them to be unable to function at schools, workplaces, and even in their own homes due to the proliferation of these hazardous devices. Despite a multitude of evidence pointing to toxic exposures at even very low levels, the US government and its regulatory FCC, CDC, and HHS, often headed up by or influenced by lobbyists for the tech industry for decades, has exposed the unsuspecting general public to extremely high levels of EMF's. "In the USA, the FCC guidelines make it currently legal to allow RF radiation levels at 10 000 000 µW/m2, which is 10,000,000,000,000 (ten trillion) times higher than than the upper natural background levels we evolved to tolerate"…

Original comment · unedited text

Good afternoon,

My name is Rachel Kamalova and I am the mother of 6 children.

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 concerned member of the public.

Wireless radiation has been making my family sick these past 6 years. During covid lock downs a 5g tower was put up close to our home. Shortly after this 2 of my sons started getting migraines that have become worse and for frequent. They are otherwise healthy boys. There is so much more chaos and anxiety when the wifi is on... and our neighborhood have all suffered since the tower was put in place.

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 have a friend who gets dizzy and can't talk when she is in a high radiation area. Eventually she will have a seizure. She doesn't go out long in public. We went to a movie once. She brought a radiofrequency radiation meter to find a seat that was in a lower radio frequency location in the theatre. She also sat at the end of the row so no one with a phone or bluetooth device would sit next to her. I've known her for about 30 years and it is sad to see what technology has done to her health.

Further research may be needed on the effects of domestic and commercial electromagnetic fields/pulses/sources on medicines while in the bloodstream or in the target organ/s. If various ionic configurations respond to specific frequencies/wavelengths, these may alter the energetic transformations and the behaviour of the compound via thermal or kinetic responses.

Original comment · unedited text

Following the installation of 5G antennas in 2021 on the roof of a neighboring building :

Mid-February 2024, strange headaches appear, with a runny nose.

My histamine level high, which is a characteristic marker of intolerance to electromagnetic waves.

I take metro line 3 and inside the carriage, my legs are suddenly electrified.

I could no longer walk. My legs had become as if on fire.

Mid-June 2024, still inside the carriage of line 3 in the metro, this time the entire body is electrified, at Saint-Lazare station in Paris.

Mid-August 2024, a new neighbor with a 5 Ghz router, and my face and my entire body began to burn.

An association advised me to take shelter in my cellar. Luckily I had one, to escape the burning sensations.

I am in possession of three medical certificates that I can send to you personally upon your request:

• The first certifying my intolerance to electromagnetic waves from August 26, 2024.

• Medical certificate from September 9, 2024, diagnosis of small fiber neuropathy at Henri-Mondor Hospital.

Reason for the examination: investigation of neuropathy in the presence of pain like electric shocks and stabbing sensations, initially in the lower limbs then diffuse, onset in February 2024 at the same time as intolerance to electromagnetic fields.

Physiology and functional exploration department, at Henri-Mondor University Hospital Center.

• Another, certifying my EHS, electromagnetic hypersensitivity syndrome, on On July 24, 2026
