Cuban medical care

May 11, 2007

More on Michael Moore’s misguided efforts to impose Cuban-style health care here:

They sterilised and reused urinary catheters until they fell apart. They reused absolutely everything, even washed and reused surgical sponges. Our team had to fix their sterilisation units as they were not working well and DID not adequately sterilise anything. Their OR suites were not negative pressure ventilated. Nurses were not pro-active. They simply followed WHATEVER the doctors told them without question. Physicians had weekend jobs as waiters as the pay as a physician is so poor that they need to augment their income . . .

. . . Going to Cuba to get the best healthcare available is like going to North Korea for religious freedom.

The solution is obvious. Import ten thousand personal injury lawyers from the US to Havana. Presto! It’ll all be fixed.
