Hi,
I know you have posted a lot of information about Cuba in the past, and I'm wondering if you remember the story about a couple who vacationed down there a few years ago. As I recall, they were somewhat liberal and have said they will continue to vacation, but they had their eyes opened to the way the Cuban people live under the Castro regime. I believe the man had an accident on a bike of some sort, and was taken to a free clinic. He found the conditions to be appalling, and I remember something about bandages being taken from a garbage can, or something like that.
If this rings a bell and you have a link, I would appreciate it.
I do know Cubans have to take their own supplies to the hospital when they go, including clean sheets.
