[RERUN] What is Havana Syndrome?

For over five years now, a mysterious illness has been hitting US intelligence officers stationed in various overseas locations . As of mid-September 2021, over 200 cases had been recorded, which would seem far too many to be a coincidence... It all started in Havana in 2016, which is how the Cuban capital ended up giving its name to the syndrome. Symptoms include migraines, tinnitus, vision problems and dizziness.
