(CNN)The mysterious head injuries suffered by US diplomatic staff in China
and Cuba that had been described as "sonic attacks" are consistent with the
use of directed microwave energy, according to a report published Saturday
by the National Academy of Sciences.
"Overall, directed pulsed RF (radio frequency) energy, especially in those
with the distinct early manifestations, appears to be the most plausible
mechanism in explaining these cases among those that the committee
considered," the report said.
The report added that it considered possible incidents of persistent
postural-perceptual dizziness as a possible secondary issue in some of those
affected a contributing factor.
In late 2016, U.S. Embassy personnel in Havana, Cuba, began to report the
development
of an unusual set of symptoms and clinical signs. For some of these patients
, their case began
with the sudden onset of a loud noise, perceived to have directional
features, and accompanied
by pain in one or both ears or across a broad region of the head, and in
some cases, a sensation of
head pressure or vibration, dizziness, followed in some cases by tinnitus,
visual problems,
vertigo, and cognitive difficulties. Other personnel attached to the U.S.
Consulate in Guangzhou,
China, reported similar symptoms and signs to varying degrees, beginning in
the following year.
As of June 2020, many of these personnel continue to suffer from these and/
or other health
problems. Multiple hypotheses and mechanisms have been proposed to explain
these clinical
cases, but evidence has been lacking, no hypothesis has been proven, and the
circumstances
remain unclear. The Department of State (DOS), as part of its effort to
inform government
employees more effectively about health risks at posts abroad, ascertain
potential causes of the
illnesses, and determine best medical practices for screening, prevention,
and treatment for both
short and long-term health problems, asked the National Academies of
Sciences, Engineering,
and Medicine (the National Academies) to provide independent, expert
guidance.
The Standing Committee to Advise the Department of States on Unexplained
Health
Effects on U.S. Government Employees and Their Families at Overseas
Embassies faced several
challenges in assessing these clinical cases, including lack of access to
individual-level health
and other information, evolving and changing clinical features over time,
and a highly
heterogeneous population in terms of the timing and type of clinical
symptoms and signs, to
include those whose symptoms were only acute, only chronic or both. However,
the committee
was able to identify distinctive clinical features, consider possible causes
, evaluate plausible
mechanisms and rehabilitation efforts, and offer recommendations for future
planning and
responses. | o******t
