RE: Health Care in Cuba
I work with a woman who went to Cuba to visit her father who was dying of heart failure (How she got in the country is another story). She says the doctors are very good and health care is available for all. But when she and her family took him to the emergency room in a small Cuban city after he had a seizure, she had to keep fanning the flies away from his face. I'm not kidding.
