After arriving, you have a headache late after arriving

In recent years, the mysterious health symptoms of the so -called "Havana syndrome" have frequently appeared in the US media. According to the US media, from 2016 to 2018, dozens of American embassies in the United States have symptoms such as decreased hearing, dizziness, headache, and weakness, and most of them are resident in Havana.

In March 2017, after a diplomat named Audrey came home from get off work, he suddenly felt severe head pain, and at the same time, his breathing became rapid. Until the next day, her headache did not reduce her headache, and she often felt dizzy in the following weeks, and would lose balance.

Soon, the other three employees of the Havana embassy in Cuban also said that they had a similar situation. After inspecting them, experts found that these diplomats who said their headache generally appeared in the brain of the brain similar to cerebral vibration. It is not clear why these symptoms appear, and researchers can only call them "Havana syndrome" first.

And Rusus was the first batch of relevant personnel who were sent to Havana to investigate after this incident. He was responsible for studying the health of the victims.

At first, Andrews was not too worried, but on the first night of Havana, he had a headache. "At 11:30 in the evening, I was sleeping in the hotel's room, but it was almost 5 am, and I woke up. My right ear hurt very much, and my head was so disgusting. Then, I started to start. Hear the sound of 'click -click "."

Andrews told reporters that he had only heard this voice in the audio editing before, "as the victims reported the same voice as the previous reports."

The first idea that appeared in Andrews's brain was: this is dreaming. "I sat next to the bed for a minute, and the situation became worse and worse. It's really incredible. I started to think,‘ Is this dreaming? ’I do n’t know."

Because the victims were suspected to be "an attack on a certain voice" before, Andrews wore headphones and sat in the bathroom for 45 minutes, but the symptoms did not reduce. At 6 in the morning, Andrews decided to clean up his luggage and leave the room.

However, Andrews found that he could not complete the "packaging". "I checked at least four or five bathrooms to ensure that I brought a toothbrush; on the way to the restaurant to see my colleagues, I found that I didn't know whether to push the door or the door. I realized that there was a problem with my balance."

Five years later, they are still troubled

"Havana syndrome" has plagued US diplomatic institutions for several years. Moreover, strangely, not only in Cuba, but also similar cases have appeared in other countries. Georgia, Poland, Australia, Austria and other places have successively reported that diplomats have appeared similar to "Havana syndrome".

For this disease, the United States has conducted a lot of research. At the end of 2020, the National Academy of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine issued a report saying that "radio frequency waves" were the most credible interpretation of "Havana syndrome".

Earlier this year, a survey report released by a special working group in the CIA held that most of the so -called "Havana syndrome" cases that appeared among the US embassies abroad may be the health of the health of environmental factors and unreasonable health. The problems and pressure are caused by the use of "secret weapons" on a large scale against US diplomats.

CIA said that there was no sufficient evidence to confirm that the "Havana syndrome" was deliberately manufactured in other countries. However, the Politics News quoted a CIA official as saying that a large number of cases that appeared worldwide could not be explained in the same reason. Given that the investigation was not over, and it was not ruled out that foreign forces were the possibility of hackers behind the scenes.

It is reported that a former CIA official said that at first, the senior leaders of the CIA did not take the case reported by the diplomat. Because they believe that some of these people's symptoms are related to their physical (disease).

In the interview, Andrew told reporters that there were some diplomats who had symptoms similar to "Havana syndrome" and did not report to report because "worrying that would affect their career."

"Once a person told me, he (or she) felt that he was sick, not only could he hear the sound, but also felt the ears hurt. I asked," Will you report it? " The reply is: absolutely not, "Andrews said.

Today, 5 years later, Andrews is still troubled by the "Havana syndrome". He still has problems with balance and vision. Not only is it difficult to read, but he can hardly jog or hiking. After the doctor checked him, he found that his vestibular function was damaged. "What made people frustrate was that everything you wanted to do could hardly do." Andrews said.
