A 素晴らしい expos? has 生き返らせるd 憶測 that 'Havana syndrome,' the mystery 病気 疫病／悩ますing US 外交官s and 秘かに調査するs, might be the work of covert ロシアの tech.

ロシアの 知能 部隊 29155, reputedly 仕事d with 'subversion, 破壊行為 and 暗殺' programs against the West, may be 責任がある the eerie and still as-yet-unexplained health 出来事/事件s, によれば a 共同の-investigative 報告（する）／憶測.

For years, the 申し立てられた／疑わしい （軍隊などの）展開，配備 of secret, directed-energy 武器s against US 公式の／役人s has been linked to?migraines, nausea, memory lapses, 審理，公聴会 loss, poor balance and dizziness?― and now more vivid symptoms have come to light.

One?連邦検察局?counterintelligence スパイ／執行官 仕事d with 跡をつけるing ロシアの 秘かに調査するs 国内で 述べるd her 趣旨d 小衝突 with the covert 武器 as feeling like 'a dentist 演習ing on steroids.'

The 遭遇（する） left her with memory 問題／発行するs, trouble multitasking and chest 苦痛s, she said, and at one point the 申し立てられた／疑わしい energy 武器 knocked her unconscious.

'My baseline changed,' as she told 60 Minutes. 'I was not the same person.'

'There's no environmental cause that causes the body damage that I saw,' an anonymous PhD source told DailyMail.com last year. 'I don't know how you create damage inside of a body, like what was seen, that comes on all of a sudden, and could be called "pre-existing conditions"'

'There's no 環境の 原因（となる） that 原因（となる）s the 団体／死体 損失 that I saw,' an 匿名の／不明の PhD source told DailyMail.com last year. 'I don't know how you create 損失 inside of a 団体／死体, like what was seen, that comes on all of a sudden, and could be called 'pre-存在するing 条件s''

CBS's?60 Minutes, German magazine?Der Spiegel and a Latvian journalism outfit called The Insider pooled their 報告（する）／憶測ing for the new investigative 共同.

Their marquee scoop 残り／休憩（する）s on 爆発性の findings from The Insider's Christo Grozev?that Russia's 隠しだてする?部隊 29155 was 'rewarded for 首尾よく 実験（する）ing "非，不，無-lethal acoustic 武器s"' on American civil servants and 秘かに調査するs.

But the team's bombshells have also 明らかにする／漏らすd new 事例／患者 熟考する／考慮するs, 拡大するing public understanding of what 'Havana syndrome' might be and how it 衝撃s the 団体／死体.

One US 政府 従業員 影響する／感情d,?the 中央情報局's former 副 長，指導者 of 操作／手術s in Europe and Eurasia,?Marc Polymeropoulos,?told?Der Spiegel?that he had first 混乱させるd his symptoms with 'food 毒（薬）ing' six years ago.

But, when the painful 'attack' （機の）カム again just a few days later, Polymeropoulos realized it had to be something else.

The ex-副 中央情報局 長，指導者 told the German magazine that it has felt like 'a 副／悪徳行為 on my skull' and that his 見通し has gotten so bad at times that he couldn't even 運動 a car.

'We were portrayed,'?Polymeropoulos said about himself and the dozens of other US 政府 従業員s who have 苦しむd from Havana syndrome, 'as people who had fallen 犠牲者 to 集まり hysteria.'

As one Georgetown neurologist, Dr. James Giordano, who 行為／行うd 早期に 研究 into the syndrome for the 米国防総省's?Special 操作／手術s 命令（する）, told DailyMail.com, this absence should not be taken as 証拠 of '集まり hysteria.'

Dr. Giordano,?who teaches neurology at the Georgetown University 医療の 中心 in Washington DC, said the findings published last month?危険 creating 'a 誤った 結論 that nothing h appened to these people's brains.'?

'One of the considerations, here, was that if, in fact, these individuals were exposed to some form of electromagnetic and/or acoustic 刺激,' Dr. Giordano explained, 'the nature of the 損失 would be 機能の, rather than 構造上の.'??

He 述べるd the new 熟考する／考慮する as 一貫した with his own 2017 and 2018 分析 of Havana Syndrome 患者s for US Special 操作／手術s 命令（する）, which 設立する 継続している problems in 患者s' brain 機能（する）／行事 but not to their brain structure?― consequences 類似の to いわゆる '小型の-一打／打撃s' or transient ischemic attack 事例／患者s.

'Let me be very 最終的な, we're not talking about a 機能の neurological disorder, which is a psychosomatic disorder,' Dr. Giordano told DailyMail.com.

'We're talking about a disruption of neurological 機能（する）／行事, that then created a host of 影響s, 含むing 石油精製 physiological 影響s that manifested themselves cognitively, motorically, and behaviorally.'

Unlike the '集まり hysteria' explanation that has 疫病／悩ますd the 明言する／公表する Department's self-報告（する）／憶測d 犠牲者s of Havana Syndrome, the neurologist に例えるd the findings to a variety of other long-称する，呼ぶ／期間／用語 brain 条件s where physical 証拠 of the 損失 quickly dissipates.?

'いつかs when there's a 小型の 一打／打撃,' Dr. Giordano said, 'it very often does not produce what is a structurally evident artifact [in the brain] that is 持続する.'?
