Compares wireless deployment with past technologies whose harms emerged later and urges investigation before widespread damage occurs.
- Research & federal duties:
blem, wouldn’t it be useful to at least study what EMFs are doing to the world before a catastrophe occur
- Exposure limits & oversight:
and organizations benifitting fight any regulations>Studies showing the dangers pile up to the point they can’t
The entire EMF issue is just the largest and most significant case of humans going big and global for anything that contributes to selling products, gaining wealth or power, or gaining control. As usual throughout history, the society tends to roll out new things to the entire world, only to ‘discover’ that each has huge costs, dangers and damaging ‘side effects’. Our Promethian discover of “Fire” in terms of the power and uses of all thing electromagnetic is probably the latest and largest of these ‘Type 1’ errors. DDT, mRNA tech, leaded gasoline, glyphosate, mercury fillings, and Thalidomide are a few that come to mind. Discovered>Released world-wide>Profited from>Dangers show up>The industries and organizations benifitting fight any regulations>Studies showing the dangers pile up to the point they can’t ignore after untold world-wide damage has been done> and then, once the world has suffered massively is the evidence of harm allowed to be seen and studied. ‘The Invisible Rainbow’ catalogues each new world-wide ‘pandemic’ of illnesses occuring each time the EMF/Electronic tech advances. From Telegraph to AC power, to Radio, TV, Cell phones to Smart (sic) Grids and satellite, NONE of these were ever allowed to be reviewed BEFORE the damages mount to an unacceptable level. Sadly, I expect the same with EMF and although I do not have a particular personal health problem, wouldn’t it be useful to at least study what EMFs are doing to the world before a catastrophe occurs? I can’t help but imagine how the world would be different IF the 9/11 planed had hardened doors as had been broadly recommended as a safety measure, BEFORE 9/11; NOT AFTER!! Get smarter!

For too long EMF emitting technology has proliferated into society without proper understanding of its health effects on human and other living organisms. The big telecoms have lobbied hard to surprise any negative findings, and now we’re all living steeped in RF noise.
Thank you for putting effort into this process. Please continue to find research that helps us all to understand (fairly) the effects of EMF on us and our children.

I have been electrically sensitive to emf/rf frequencies for over 20 years. Everywhere I go there is just more 5g, wi-fi and Bluetooth. We are saturated in wireless and our bodies were not made for this. It affects me in several ways: I have ADHD like symptoms when around wireless, I have tunnel vision when using Bluetooth and I get headaches & nausea as well. I think our standards are out dated and those that are sensitive are often mocked and looked down upon by those not sensitive. The only way I can gain much relief is through not using the technology which makes it difficult to function in today’s society. I worry about young children who are still growing with more soft tissue that the waves can penetrate. It’s far overdue for someone to ask for comment and I hope this time will be well spent and that standards can be raised and that independent research be conducted. Thank for your efforts!

When the overexposure to near field radio frequency decimated the membrane that encases my brain, it allowed my immune system to ravage my brain and spinal cord.

I am responding as an individual consumer, a parent, and a concerned citizen. I first started to learn about the hazards of EMF's when I started to experience severe and symptomatic arrythmias in my mid-30's. Since then, I have recovered and improved my sleep immensely by turning off our WiFi when not in use, hardwiring devices like TV's, computers and laptops, and having our smartmeters (power and gas) replaced with analog meters. Everyone in our family noticed better sleep, my daughter's nose bleeds stopped, my son who was experiencing distressing symptoms from heart arrythmia improved, our family dog who used to have his crate on the wall near the smart meter began to grow hair. That was all the evidence we needed, but unfortunately, we have been unable to control the installation of wireless towers near our home and/or massive panel additions to existing panels. There has been the installation of 5G (all while adding to 2G, 3G and 4G) with 6G on the way. We also cannot control the "general electrosmog" from other neighbor's smart meters, WiFi, devices, appliances, etc, etc. We need the FCC to revisit the undeniable impact of EMF's on our cellular biology, disease factors, impact on nature and the environment, and more. Such studies stopped decades ago while the industry explodes unchecked and that is telling. We need ongoing health studies, industry transparency and regulation to protect residential areas and schools.

I'm so glad you are asking for comments, I worry so much about my health, the administrative agencies in place to help me ensure my best health outcomes, and the concept of the scientific method. If these frequencies are truly harmful, their effects should be measurable and repeatedly so. I am willing to help build out a study design for $200,000 per anum plus benefits. I have some experience with R and ArcGIS can think a regression model would be an interesting way to approach distance from things like cell towers to incidence of negative health outcomes. I have done countless literature reviews at this point in my life would be well equipped to analyze and interpret the data that I'm sure is already out there, as well. I'm sure your "research" is eager to add a healthy amount of academic skeptism and realism to it and I feel like I have a lot to offer. I think the skill set I bring is strongly in line with the meritocratic bent this administration has taken. Because this is a public comment, I will leave it to my NSA agent to violate my God-given right to privacy and give you my info if you would like to pursue my offer.

I am submitting this comment in response to HHS’s Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure.
My husband and I both have experienced loss of hearing in only our left ear. I have constant high pitched ringing 24/7 in my left ear. I could hear the sound of a running toilet from the other end of the house as of a few months ago. Now I am unable to hear anything except the continuous ringing. It is as if you flipped a switch. This is debilitating. It is now effecting our quality of life. I do not consent to what is happening.
It is time for the government to look at potential health effects on people and establish a priority to lower the radiation allowed in these products.
Thank you for looking into this matter as the world is being blanketed with more and more unhealthy radiation and we the people are getting sicker from it.

My concern is the HHS is not taking anything seriously and this survey proves it. There’s a new food recall so often and I want to know why the HHS is more concerned about wireless radiation? This is pathetically stupid and that’s not even counting him constantly undermining medical science. How he was ever confirmed to this position is an insult to anyone who actually works in the medical field and anyone that did should be eternally ashamed of themselves. This entire administration should be ashamed of themselves but they’re either too corrupt or ignorant to care, and they’re going to make it everyone else’s problem. Why can he work on making food safe again? What does RFK need to focus on wireless radiation when people are having to pay for more expensive food that is getting recalled?! This administration is an embarrassment and laughing stock as the entire world watches in horror as something new and avoidable happens in this country. I’m so embarrassed by this ignorant time in America’s history and I have no idea how the administration, and its supporters can’t see the problems they are causing.
