Cuban Physicians Flee

Not surprisingly, hundreds of Cuban physicians have sought and been
granted visas from the U.S. Embassy, according two separate Embassy
cables describing the plight of Cuban physicians. The doctors
complained of "poor working conditions, inadequate medical supplies,
and of constantly being watched and monitored by co-workers,"
according to a "secret" Embassy cable sent in April, 2009, and titled:
"Cuban Medical Personnel Flee Venezuela."

Sorry to waste everyone's time with this crap, but I think you will all
share my shock, shock I tell you, that the U.S. Embassy would have harsh
things to say about Hugo Chavez.

Defections
In August 2006 the United States under GEORGE W. BUSH created the Cuban
Medical Professional Parole program, specifically targeting Cuban
medical personnel and encouraging them to defect when they are working
in a country outside of Cuba.[16] According to a 2007 paper published in
The Lancet medical journal, "growing numbers of Cuban doctors sent
overseas to work are defecting to the USA".[17][18] Cuban doctors
working abroad are reported to be monitored by "minders" and subject to
curfew.[17]

Maybe this time RHF can constrain himself to respond just in the group
rec.radio.shortwave instead of dragging in his entourage of groups which
includes fans of a recovering narcotics abuser.
