Experiments with ferrets should determine if RF waves could be the source of the mysterious illness.

The Pentagon is funding animal experiments to unravel the causes of the mysterious “Havana Syndrome” that has afflicted hundreds of US government workers over the years. This was reported on March 9 by the newspaper Politico.

It was noted that in September of last year, the US Department of Defense gave Wayne University in Michigan a $750,000 grant to study the effects of radio frequency waves on ferrets, whose brains are similar to humans.

The purpose of the study, according to the documents, is to determine whether this exposure causes symptoms similar to those experienced by US officials in Havana, Cuba and China in recent years.

Defense Department spokesman Tim Gorman confirmed to Politico that the grant to Wayne State University and University of Michigan staff “will enable the development and testing of a laboratory animal model to simulate mild concussion .”

He added that the Pentagon, at the direction of Congress, continues to establish the causes and eliminate the consequences of mysterious incidents.

Recall that in 2016, American diplomats who worked in Cuba complained of poor health and unusual symptoms, in particular, auditory hallucinations and a feeling of pressure in the head. Some of them experienced vision problems.

Since then, “Havana syndrome” has afflicted more than 200 US civil servants around the world.

Neurologists from the University of Pennsylvania who examined the first patients found no cognitive abnormalities or signs of poisoning. According to them, the situation resembles “a concussion without an immediate concussion.”

Some experts have suggested that the cause of the ailments may lie in the effect of radio waves, the origin and nature of which are unknown to Western intelligence agencies.
