What is the Havana Syndrome?

Subscribe Today: https://thingsyoushouldknow.supercast.tech

Up to 200 Americans have reported possible directed energy attack symptoms, including new cases in Vienna that came to light last week, according to NBC News.

Biden administration officials have received a steady stream of cables from overseas posts reporting potential new cases of "Havana syndrome" symptoms, a U.S. official told the network.

Officials said there are now possible cases on every continent except Antarctica, with almost half of the possible cases involving CIA officers or their relatives. Around 60 cases involved Defense Department employees or relatives, while about 50 were tied to the State Department.

The exact cause of the ailments in Vienna, which U.S. government agencies formally refer to as “anomalous health incidents” or “unexplained health incidents,” remains unknown, but in response to the surge the C.I.A., the State Department, and other agencies are redoubling their efforts to determine the cause, and to identify the culprit or culprits. A C.I.A. spokesperson said that the agency’s director, William Burns, was “personally engaged with personnel affected by anomalous health incidents and is highly committed to their care and to determining the cause of these incidents.” Privately, Burns has called the maladies “attacks” rather than incidents. A State Department spokesman said, “In coordination with our partners across the U.S. government, we are vigorously investigating reports of possible unexplained health incidents among the U.S. Embassy Vienna community.”
