Since the symptoms associated with this illness were first noticed in Cuba in 2016, it was dubbed as the ‘Havana Syndrome’. At that time, 200 US officials attending a meeting in Cuba were all afflicted with similar neurological symptoms – mostly memory lapses, migraines, vertigo, nausea, and dizziness.

In these troubled times when viruses are running amuck and vaccines are unable to keep up with these ‘unstoppable monsters’ that have gone berserk, a new kind of ‘mystery illness’ is a cause for concern.
Since the symptoms associated with this illness were first noticed in Cuba in 2016, it was dubbed as the ‘Havana Syndrome’. At that time, some 200 US officials attending a meeting in Cuba were all afflicted with similar neurological symptoms – mostly memory lapses, migraines, vertigo, nausea, and dizziness.
Earlier this month, an official who accompanied CIA Director William Burns to India, also suffered similar symptoms. He was tested for .strange brain symptoms and is currently under treatment for migraines, vertigo, nausea, memory lapses, and dizziness. It all starts with a noise quite like “buzzing”, “grinding metal” and “piercing squeals”.
Similar symptoms have been reported by US officials in China and the Washington, DC area. Only last month, US Vice President Kamala Harris changed her travel plans. She was to go from Singapore to Vietnam when the US Embassy in Hanoi reported a health incident akin to the Havana Syndrome and US diplomats in Vietnam had to be relocated
Earlier this month, an official who accompanied CIA Director William Burns to India, also suffered similar symptoms. He was tested for .strange brain symptoms and is currently under treatment for migraines, vertigo, nausea, memory lapses, and dizziness.
Is this intentional, some sort of ‘biological sabotage’ ? Or is it some kind of secret surveillance? Or perhaps “directed, pulsed radio frequency energy” that causes the syndrome. Somehow nobody seems to know the reasons behind this mysterious Havana Syndrome
Science fiction writers like Isaac Asimov, Arthur C. Clarke and others have written in their works that very high-frequency radio waves beamed at a particular location or area can produce such neurological symptoms.
Top US officials say deliberate mischief cannot be ruled out as a cause for the syndrome. CIA Director Burns has said that a senior officer, who had led the hunt for Osama bin Laden, has been assigned to dig deep and uncover the actual reasons behind this Syndrome.
US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, too, has reiterated that the US was making all efforts to solve this issue, admitting at the same time that none actually knew how to stop it, CNN had reported.
