One night, my friend's dad became really sick. My friend and others helped him WALK to the hospital (no one had a car to take him, taxis are a luxury, and an ambulance would take hours to arrive). He died on the way to the hospital. They waited 2 hours for a funeral car to come pick up his body.

A friend of mine got a blood clot. The hospital couldn't do a thing. We bought the thinners on the black market. What a shitshow. X-ray machines are from the fifties as well

That’s why I emphasize that Cuban healthcare is only good for preventative measures. Once literally any ailment manifests within you, you’re on your own.
