What is Havana Syndrome?
About this episode
What is Havana Syndrome? For over five years now, a mysterious illness has been hitting US intelligence officers stationed in various overseas locations. Symptoms include migraines, tinnitus, vision problems and dizziness. As of mid-September 2021, over 200 cases had been recorded, which would seem far too many to be a coincidence. The US Department of State has referred to “unexplained health incidents” in its communications, and many suspect foul play. So what’s causing this syndrome? Have there been any investigations into it? Who could be behind Havana Syndrome attacks then? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
