>The State Department commissioned a study last year by the National Academies of Sciences, which handed in the report in early August.
>Dr. Relman expects the report to be made public, as is the tradition of work done by the academies.
When the report is made public it will show no evidence of any malicious action. The idea that there is some microwave or sonic weapon being used against agents is a sensationalistic conspiracy theory.

- boomboomsubban 6y agoThere's a real possibility that many of the problems are a result of the placebo effect. If you started hearing that your workplace had potentially been attacked by some secret weapon, it would not be surprising if the stress caused many of the listed symptoms. It's also possible some US training or accident is involved. Just because a trip to Russia or Cuba was when the problems became unbearable doesn't mean those trips were at fault. Years in combat zones can eventually cause problems.
