Prevention publishes a consumer health explainer on Havana Syndrome, noting that radiofrequency-weapon speculation remains part of the public history while a 2025 official report said it was "very unlikely" that a foreign actor used a novel weapon against U.S. personnel. The article frames the condition as poorly understood, with no widely accepted cause and treatment still limited by uncertainty.

"There was speculation that these symptoms were caused by foreign adversaries using radio frequency technology to attack U.S. diplomats and their families and cause these unsettling and often debilitating symptoms."
