In November 2016, the new Trump administration experienced an outbreak, but it wasn't a disease. Three weeks after Trump was first elected, an American working in the US embassy in Havana, Cuba, heard strange noises outside his home. It was so annoying that he had to close all the windows and doors and turn the TV volume up really loud. In the next few months, more and more people were reporting the noises. And they started to get sick. Some had hearing problems or hearing loss, headaches, and even mental stupor. At that time, over 20 people were eventually evacuated from the embassy and sent for testing and treatment, thus the name "Havana Syndrome" for the disorder.

It is important to note that this embassy was reopened by Barack Obama in July 2015, and CIA agents returned in droves. During his 2016 presidential campaign, Trump vowed to "terminate" the new open-door policy with Cuba.

Regarding Havana Syndrome, the Trump administration insisted they were dealing with something nefarious. Naturally, the mainstream media ignored and ridiculed Trump and team. An acoustic weapon wasn't out of the realm of possibility, considering that the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) had been working on an arsenal of sound weapons for quite a while. The DARPA weapons were designed to cause excruciating ear pain in order to disperse angry mobs.

Interesting.
