WikiLeaks Embassy Cables Reveal Venezuela's Health-Care System
Collapsing

Some of Venezuela's public hospitals are closing. Others are ridden
with crime. Many physicians are quitting medicine -- starting new
careers in Venezuela or emigrating, upset at being paid a pittance or
not at all. Medical supplies are in short supply.

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."
