Cuban Docs Help Bolivia, Humanity
La Paz, March 12.- Accomplishing international missions is a way to pay a debt to Humanity, said coordinator of the Cuban medical team working in Bolivia, Armando Garrido; published the Latin American News Agency.
Garrido told a meeting of Bolivian and Cuban doctors that serving other people is in line with international solidarity received by Cuba at the beginning of the revolution.
The coordinator summarized the work of 592 doctors in Bolivia, who were sent in to assist the victims of natural disasters, and said they were working in 180 municipalities of nine Bolivian provinces.
He also said the Cubans have treated around 130,000 patients and saved 309 Bolivian lives so far.

Aren't Cuba going to send even more doctors to Bolivia? I believe I remember hearing that... I could be wrong, though.
