WASHINGTON — Fourteen of 15 U.S. diplomats pulled from China for medical testing this year have been found not to have the same set of injuries as personnel evacuated earlier from Cuba, the State Department said Wednesday. In May, a diplomat posted in China was confirmed to have Havana-like symptoms, sparking fears the alleged Cuba attacks had also occurred on another continent. Some 300 diplomats and family members in China sought preliminary testing from State Department medical staff. The State Department has dramatically reduced its staff at the embassy in Havana. The State Department said Wednesday that the Cuba investigation is ongoing and that no conclusions have been reached.
