The Biden administration is investigating a recent rash of mysterious health incidents reported by American diplomats and other government employees in Vienna, U.S. officials said Friday.

Some of the symptoms are similar to those first reported by U.S. diplomats and spies in Havana in 2016 and 2017 for which no definitive cause has yet been determined, according to the officials.

Five Canadian diplomats and members of their families also fell victim to the mysterious health complaints, which included headaches, dizziness and cognitive problems, while posted to Cuba.
