Two
Cuban dispensaries closed; doctors to be
sent to Venezuela
HAVANA, Cuba, October 17 (www.cubanet.org)
- Two family medicine offices in Alamar,
east of Havana, have been closed because
the attending doctors are to be sent to
Venezuela as part of Cuba's program of aid
to that country.
An Alamar resident said that the Popular
Power (local government) delegate told neighbors
on Tuesday that they would have to make
do with the one remaining family medicine
office. "Now we will have to come up
with a better gift for the doctor,"
said the man.
The two doctors are being sent to Venezuela
to participate in the Inside the Neighborhoods
program put in motion by the Chávez
government with Cuban doctors.
