Havana Syndrome: Over 200 Cases Documented Yet Cause Remains A Mystery

20 Oktober 2021

Since 2016, a number of U.S. diplomats and federal employees have reported symptoms of a mysterious illness, the so-called Havana Syndrome. The list of symptoms include hearing loud sounds, nausea fatigue, and dizzying migraines, among others. The cause of this mystery illness is a source of curiosity, but it remains unknown. Last year the State Department commissioned a study by the National Academies of Sciences for researchers to investigate Havana Syndrome. NPR's Sarah McCammon spoke to Dr. David Relman, a Stanford professor who headed the investigation. One possible cause their group came to was a form of microwave radiation that occurs in a pulsed or intermittent form.
