CUBA IN FOCUS: COVID19

A monthly newsmagazine presenting issues and discussions not commonly found in the corporate media..We here at Cuba In Focus feel it’s time to hear other voices..

Cuba continues international solidarity – sending teams of medical professionals throughout the world to help fight the Corona Virus.. 

As activists, medical professionals, academics, elected officials and concerned citizens call for U.S.-Cuba-Canada cooperation in fighting the Pandemic.     We have an interview with Cheryl LeBash of the National Network on Cuba    and we hear from esteemed Professor, historian and Cuban specialist, Dr. Isaac Saney – Co-Chair of The Canadian Network on Cuba.  We also present excerpts from an April 18th webinar entitled “Worldwide Health Crisis Demands Solidarity, Not Sanctions!”

Including remarks by Cuba’s Canadian Ambassador, Josefina Vidal, we begin as usual with some news-notes starting with reports by Margaret Gilpin and Gilda Gil of The Prensa Latina News Agency on the latest COVID-19 figures coming out of Cuba..

Produced by Sally O'Brien and Margaret Gilpin with reports from Gilda Gil of The Prensa Latina News agency in Havana
