Conservative writer Rick Moran has been looking into the Havana Syndrome mystery that has been perplexing diplomats and officials since 2016. Initially, it was believed that the sickness was caused by sonic waves as some kind of attack on American diplomats in Havana. However, recent investigations have discredited this theory.
A recent “60 Minutes” segment pointed fingers at a secretive Russian military unit that was said to be developing a high-energy beam that could cause these symptoms. This theory of an intentional attack doesn’t seem to hold up, as most victims do not show any signs of brain damage.

Another explanation suggested by experts is “mass psychogenic illness,” which is essentially mass hysteria. This theory proposes that the condition was exacerbated by a heightened psychological response to the initial cases. While this theory seems plausible, it doesn’t account for those who did experience brain damage.
Scientific American has put forth an alternative theory involving persistent postural perceptual dizziness (PPPD), a condition related to abnormal brain function that can be triggered by various factors. This theory suggests a connection between pulsed microwave exposure and PPPD, which could lead to the symptoms experienced in Havana Syndrome without causing brain damage.
From a conservative perspective, it is important to consider all possible explanations and not jump to conclusions that may point fingers at specific countries without concrete evidence. The health and well-being of those affected by Havana Syndrome should be a top priority, and the government’s response to assisting these individuals should be swift and effective. It is crucial to approach this issue with care and thorough research to ensure that the right solutions are implemented for those suffering from this mysterious illness.
