When I was 12 my whole life got turned upside down due to EMF. I couldn't do normal things, was ostracized from my peers, teachers, and classmates. I got nosebleeds, stabbing headaches, memory loss, nausea, restless legs, pain, extreme whole-body inflammation, my eyes couldn't focus, and insane fatigue. Everyone around me thought I was crazy or making it up. But then I was 15 and had to write a research paper on something, I chose to write on EMF. I got paid to have my 15-page research paper published by a company in the United Kingdom that I wrote my freshman year. A classmate who thought I was making it up mocked me for doing that, and later didn't have enough research to back up his paper. I had so much scientific published research on EMF I actually had to take out over 6 pages of my paper. The research was astounding and other countries know and acknowledge the harms of EMF. They protect children. They don't allow cell towers within 2 miles of schools, they have research on the effects of non-ionizing radiation. My pain from EMF got to such a degree that it felt like in addition to having headaches that felt like someone was stabbing me in the head and I couldn't breathe. Once we started turning off our Wi-Fi at night I was finally able to sleep, and some of the pain went away. The shift was drastic. I am happy to say that a few years later I've recovered and am a lot less sensitive, but that's only thanks to the research I did when I was younger, and to my parents work to protect me and help me heal from the damage. We should not allow the cell phone companies profiting from these to set the safety standards. That's unethical and we're putting profit over health here in the US. If any third party did the research we would know ad see that we're insanely exceeding the safe amount of radiation a human can tolerate. But instead we are letting the cell phone tower companies tell us what is safe, and we're allowing this to be an unregulated industry. My teenage years were dictated by EMF and my symptoms. I couldn't go to things I wanted to, hang out with friends, have people over unless they turned their phones off, or be in normalcy in society due to the…

HHS should regulate EMF radiation and establish biologically sound limits for exposure. HHS has a mission to protect and support human health. The FCC has no such mission. Its mission is to proliferate EMF radiation, and it does. At this time the FCC regulates EMF exposure according to its mission: It sets limits which do not protect human health, but proliferate EMF exposure. HHS should step in and do its job. The is a huge difference between voluntary and involuntary exposure. Involuntary exposure is criminal battery and should not be allowed at all. There should be a way to opt out of involuntary exposure, especially from Smart Meters, but also from non-consensual transmitter siting. All involuntary exposure should be kept at a distance of at least one mile, in order to avert claims of battery. The most urgent issue is Smart Meters and the Smart Grid, an extremely harmful involuntary exposure. The opposition to Smart Meters is fierce and vocal. Smart Meters have caused the most serious injuries, killing people, permanently debilitating them, and forcing them out of their own homes. Smart Meters regularly emit a millisecond pulse, which the FCC allows at 1.8 million times over the FCC limit. This is because the FCC averages the exposure over 30 minutes, even though the next pulse is often less than 30 minutes away. (30 minutes x 60 seconds x 1,000 milliseconds = 1,800,000) A shorter pulse would allow even greater exposure. In this way, the FCC has essentially created an exception for pulsed radiation, The first coarse of action for HHS is to eliminate the 30 minute averaging for pulsed radiation, and require that it comply with existing limits. The Smart Grid would have to be dismantled and replaced with the safe analog grid that performed flawlessly for almost a century. The next step is to eliminate all involuntary exposure, which violates the Constitution, the law, and human rights. The third step is to establish biologically-based limits for voluntary exposure. The attached files include scientific and legal documents which show that involuntary EMF exposure is both harmful and illegal. The case involves Smart Meters which forced people out of their…

I am extremely sensitive to EMF/RF frequencies, and have been SEVERELY DISABLED by them in my past. I have a “canary in the coal mine” kind of sensitivity, which is a detriment when living in this modern age.

However, since I’ve learned how to mitigate this frequency problem for myself, I am now fine around EMFs/RFs. PLEASE SEE ATTACHMENT

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 wellness consultant, safe-tech and environmental advocate who feels the effects of ElectroSmog. I first learned about the health hazards of EMF in functional neurology class. We turned our wifi off that night and both of us slept amazing and woke up feeling so much better. That was ten years ago. Since then I have had times of completely being unable to work, the right side of my face drooping and the right side of my body not working the same as the left when over exposed. It sidelined my NYC music career, derailed my relationships with family as no one believes in health effects because the gov't says it's safe, I cannot work in most environments and it has severely limited my finances. The personal financial and emotional losses if calculated using forensic accounting are devastating. MY SYMPTOMS IMMEDIATELY RESOLVE UPON LOW EMF ENVIRONMENT and immediately return in cell service areas and wifi routers. I have trouble swallowing from the tightening of the neck muscles, brain encephalopathy pinching cranial nerves and over activating the limbic system that dysregulates my body so much I've been diagnosed with dystonia and dysautonomia. X-rays show developing scoliosis from a complete dystonic twist from attempting to live and work to survive in this environment. It's INSANITY! As a wellness practitioner, I see many people who also complain of symptomology in wireless exposure as well. And in my 18 years as an Osteopathic Movement Therapist and Personal Trainer I am seeing these twists, tensions, and symptoms in many people. In fact, myself, colleagues and teachers keep talking of how we seldom see a normal brain, nervous system and body of any client anymore. The biggest change to our environment is ELECTROSMOG. Our advocacy groups already won a landmark lawsuit for the people due to extensive evidence of harm from ElectroSmog and the FCC shows flagrant disregard for humanity. This issue must continue to be addressed with holding FCC accountable,…

I am very concerned about the effects of EMFS, RF and wireless radiation on humans, animals and plants. The detrimental effects on reproduction, mitochondria, thyroid and numerous organs have been researched and documented. Children and pregnant women are particularly vulnerable. Researchers have also found that exposure to these types of radiation increase the risk of various kinds of cancer. Even migratory birds were shown to be affected by exposure to cell towers.

I personally know numerous people who are seriously adversely affected by exposure to wireless radiation in cell phones, cell towers and modems.

I’ve attached documents and studies that provide evidence of harms from exposure to cell phones, wifi and EMFs. It's time for the HHS to take action to safeguard the public in regard to this important issue.

I get frequent headaches if I turn wifi on or am in a wifi heavy area. C

Can the regulatory agency prove that any of these microwave technologies are safe.i bet not.

I submit this to document my great concern over 5G 6G and all the equipment and manners in which they are operating. The evidence is showing greater incidents of cancer and so many other dangers. I do not give my consent to have those frequencies going through my brain and my body in all places at all times. We live in a time when things should be able to function without that kind of danger and illness.

My Comment is added in the pdf entitled FCC HHS Submission Oct 2026 on FCC Limits...

We have noticed an increase in sleeplessness, pain, skin, irritation, headaches, fatigue, and nausea. We live in Central New York and we have numerous cell towers around us. We have noticed this uptake in pain and problems since 2021. We do believe that it is being caused by the cell towers and 5G. We lived in a different area several years ago in a city and never had these sort of problems till we move to this area. We definitely believe our area needs to be investigated for over exposure of EMF or RF. We have minimal electronic devices in our home. And we feel there are no safety measures for people like us. We are basically being exposed to the EMF and 5G without consent and without any investigation being done. I have spoke to several of the neighbors around me, and they all have similar symptoms, especially the sleeplessness. None of us can sleep a full night in our neighborhood. We would openly welcome investigation conducted in this neighborhood where we live, and willing to share more information with our government. But we do believe we are being made ill by the EMF and the 5G. Doctors don’t seem to have any answers for our health problems nor do they offer any solutions. This is not an isolated situation. I have other family members that live in other places near cell towers also expressing the same issues of pain and health problems. Something needs to be done about this issue it is serious enough that it’s almost debilitating

I appreciate HHS undertaking this important inquiry into electromagnetic fields (EMFs), radiofrequency (RF) radiation, and their potential effects on human health. My central concern is that the widespread deployment of wireless technologies has outpaced our understanding of the biological consequences of chronic, cumulative exposure. Compliance with existing exposure standards is not equivalent to demonstrating long-term biological safety. I urge HHS to address the following concerns: 1. Reevaluate safety standards beyond thermal effects. Current RF exposure standards have historically emphasized protection against tissue heating. Yet peer-reviewed research has reported biological effects involving oxidative stress, neurological function, reproductive health, and cellular processes at exposure levels that warrant investigation beyond heating alone. The National Toxicology Program’s 2018 studies reported clear evidence of carcinogenic activity involving malignant heart schwannomas in male rats exposed to certain RF conditions. The Ramazzini Institute independently reported increased heart schwannomas in male rats. Although these findings do not establish cancer risks from ordinary human wireless exposure, they raise legitimate questions requiring further investigation. 2. Investigate cumulative, real-world exposure. Americans experience simultaneous exposure from Wi-Fi, cellular networks, Bluetooth devices, smart meters, and other wireless technologies. Research must examine long-term exposure to multiple sources, including potential effects of duration, frequency, modulation, and cumulative lifetime exposure. 3. Prioritize vulnerable populations. Children, pregnant women, developing fetuses, and individuals with neurological vulnerabilities deserve particular consideration. Children increasingly experience wireless exposure throughout their school day, often without meaningful alternatives. HHS should determine whether existing standards adequately protect developing biological systems rather than assuming uniform safety across populations. 4. Ensure independent research and regulatory transparency. The telecommunications industry has substantial financial…

I am submitting this comment as an individual consumer (Question 2). My comments are based on my own direct, repeated experience with everyday wireless devices and an electric vehicle. In response to Question 3, I want to describe what I have experienced. I have used both iPhone and Samsung smartphones, along with Apple AirPods, on the AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile networks. I use my phone an average of 10 hours a day, which means my exposure is long, daily, and ongoing. I experience headaches, and they consistently come on after I have been close to electronic devices. This has happened across different phone brands and different carriers, which tells me the issue is not limited to a single product or network. My experience with my electric vehicle has been more severe. I own a 2025 Jeep Wagoneer Launch Edition and charge it using both Level 2 and Level 3 (DC fast) charging, including at EVgo charging stations. When I sit inside the car while it is charging, I get a severe headache within 3 to 5 minutes. The speed and consistency of this reaction is significant. Many drivers stay in their vehicles while charging, especially at public fast-charging stations, yet no one has told me whether doing so is safe. Regarding Question 5 and Question 9, I urge HHS to require clear, accessible disclosure of exposure information for consumers. For phones and wireless earbuds, this should include SAR values and the exact distance from the body at which each device was tested. Phones are carried against the body and earbuds are worn inside the ear for hours, so testing at a distance does not reflect how these products are actually used. For electric vehicles, manufacturers and charging providers should disclose the magnetic and electric field levels inside the cabin during Level 2 and DC fast charging, and should state plainly whether occupants should remain in the vehicle while it charges. Today, this information is either difficult to find or not provided at all. Regarding Question 10, there is currently no simple way for a consumer like me to report symptoms connected to wireless devices or EV charging. I ask HHS to create a public adverse event reporting system for RF/EMF…

Victoria Marshall Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health Re: Request for Information on Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs), Radiofrequency (RF) Radiation, and Wireless Radiation Exposure Docket #.: HHS-OASH-2026-0397; Federal Register Notice: 91 FR 59792 (Sept. 21, 2026) Dear Ms. Marshall and the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health: This is an abridged version. The full version is attached as a PDF. I worked in satellite communications in the late 1980s. The field was new; we transmitted live sports via audio then video within 18 months. The company grew from ~23–24 to ~350 employees in five years. I worked under the executive VP overseeing engineering. Safety was taken seriously—rigid line and transmission equipment were tested and kept within then-applicable exposure margins. Despite this, I was chronically ill the entire time. I have had multiple RF, wireless, and magnetic exposures (satellite RF, extreme magnetic fields exceeding accepted standards, ordinary/not ordinary wireless). I may be more sensitive than average. One can literally feel the low-level “noise” of these emanations as continuous low-level stress on the body, separate from any bio-field or optogenetic-type effects. RF/wireless/magnetic safety limits have not been meaningfully updated in ~30–40 years. FCC limits adopted in August 1996 (based on ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 and NCRP) remain essentially unchanged (reaffirmed 2019). They rest on a ~4 W/kg whole-body SAR threshold linked to roughly a 1 °C core temperature rise, with large safety factors yielding a public limit of 0.08 W/kg. The safety exposure levels for RF, wireless, microwave radiation have not been meaningfully updated in roughly 40 years. The current U.S. FCC limits were adopted in August 1996, based on the ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 standard and NCRP recommendations which was studied in the 80’s which govern the frequency range from 3 kHz – 300 GHz. Those numerical limits (and their thermal-only basis) have remained essentially unchanged; the FCC reviewed and explicitly reaffirmed them in 2019. The foundational threshold is approximately 4 W/kg whole-body average SAR, associated with roughly a 1 °C rise in core body…

My brain became “unhinged” when 5G transmitters were placed on phone poles right in front of my house. One is about 50’ away, one less than 100’ away (not sure why; no other phone poles have them so close together).

I was born with a pretty good brain – I graduated from Harvard at the top of my class! (junior year Phi Beta Kappa, class of ’73). No signs of dementia before this.

When the transmitters were installed, I developed brain fog, memory loss, deep fatigue, irritability / anger outbursts, inability to think clearly. I work at a home office, and I have been almost completely unable to work since then.

I have acquired some EMF protective gear which has helped to some extent. I also have a Safe & Sound meter to measure EMF levels; it has a green light to indicate a safe zone, a yellow light to indicate acceptable levels, an orange light for problem levels, red for danger; and a blinking red light indicates 10 times the danger level; mine blinks much faster, indicating 100 times the danger level. On EMFradar.com, the EMF exposure at my street address is listed - on a scale of 1 to 100 – at a 100.

I work in health care and I like to think that my life is dedicated to serving the health of others. Please help to protect me so I can continue to be of service!
