PJM: In an interview with NPR, CIA Director William Burns said that about 200 U.S. diplomats and their families had been sickened by the “Havana Syndrome” illness, with 100 of them being CIA personnel.
Burns confirmed he had tapped an undercover officer who led the efforts to find Osama bin Laden to head up a task force examining the possible causes of the illness. He also vastly increased the number of doctors on the medical team investigating the symptoms.
“I am absolutely determined — and I’ve spent a great deal of time and energy on this in the four months that I’ve been CIA director — to get to the bottom of the question of what and who caused this,” Burns said.
There is some urgency now attached to solving the mystery. Havana Syndrome has apparently struck far more people than was previously known. According to CNN, “multiple sources familiar with the intelligence described a ballooning number of reports in recent months,” including the most recent attacks in Vienna.
Since many of the personnel who may have been attacked are involved in clandestine activities for the U.S. government, it’s been difficult to get an accurate handle on the number of victims. But the lack of victims among other agencies and the general population of the areas affected raises the issue of deliberate targeting of U.S. national security people. more
And how sympathetic is the Biden Administration that they helped install?
And what will they/Joetatoe do?
or will they use their vast resources to cover for Hunter, Joetatoe, Hillary, Slick Willy, Bush#2
Havana Syndrome probably as real as Covid.
Israeli researchers crack mystery of ‘Havana syndrome’

Has anybody looked into whether the CIA has installed some new super-duper snooper hardware in the affected offices? Maybe they’re doing this to themselves with some EMF-leaking gizmos.
Have they checked for a correlation with Keurig coffee makers? $8,000 Swedish massage chairs? $2,000 Japanese smart bidet toilet seats?
The bastards infesting the leadership of the CIA and the FBI have done so much damage to our country, they deserve any misery put upon them.
“CIA Director Says 100 Agents and Family Members Sickened by ‘Havana Syndrome’”
…meanwhile, 100% of Federal agents in all branches have been infected with Communism…
So…the Israeli’s claim it might be fumigants and pesticides. And? So?
FOR BEHOLD MY FIELD OF FUCKS, FOR IT IS BARREN AND EMPTY, AND I HAVE NONE TO GIVE.
hmph
too bad
What a shame it’s not 400.
Ya, that’s the mood I’m in right now.
Uncle Al
I never thought about it, but you may be onto something, great way to avoid responsibility by blaming an adversary.
$2,000 Japanese smart bidet toilet seats? What in the world do they do? Wait, never mind. I’m still not sold on bidets, I probably don’t need to know about a smart one.
Obviously whatever it is has infected the DOJ, FBI, ATF, NSA, CIA, Congress and the whitehouse. It has affected their ability to understand the Constitution, investigate government corruption or putting America First instead of their personal and political interests.
The American people no longer have the leash on runaway government and their corruption.
Justice in their mind isn’t blind, they just turn her head the other way.
@cato:
And for us ordinary people, it’s turn your head and cough.
Don’t drink the water.
I am sickened by the Havana Syndrome called “Communism”.
Hey CIA, if you hadn’t effed up the Bay of Pigs, your Friends & Families would be just fine. And what is it exactly that y’all are doing in Cuba besides collecting cigars, tans, paychecks, and whatever injury is occurring from the “Havana Syndrome”.
“Dizziness”, “confusion”, “memory loss”??? HOLY SHIT, they got to Biden, too!!!
In my wife’s hometown back in Kazakhstan last year, the stupid & corrupt city government decided to make every citizen stay inside for three days while they sprayed every street and building with a chemical in an attempt to kill the Wuhan virus. The virus survived but every bird in the city died.
Is it considered poor taste if we try to send Biden, Pelosi, Harris, Schiff and Cuomo there for a few months?
I wish the goddam Chinks would park their serial killer vans outside the FBI headquarters building and crank the dial as high as it can go.
I’m torn–commies vs. CIA. Which poses the greatest threat to our freedoms? The jury is still out.
@manbearpig:
That’s a distinction without a difference. /-:
So the dude just declared that 50% of our Foreign Service staffs are spooks?
Isn’t he supposed to keep that to himself?
izlamo delenda est …
Can’t happen to a nicer bunch of terrorists!!!…well, maybe the FBI!
