US Embargo or Cuban Communism: Who’s to Blame for Healthcare Crisis
Cuban officials report that the nation’s healthcare system is nearing collapse due to a US blockade of oil supplies, exacerbating pre-existing shortages of resources and personnel. The crisis has escalated to the point where ambulances are struggling for fuel, and persistent power outages are further degrading hospital conditions. Vital supply flights have ceased as Cuba can no longer refuel outbound aircraft, pushing the country toward a humanitarian crisis with millions facing disruptions to treatment for chronic illnesses.
