Honduras Ends Cuban Medical Mission
March 6, 2026[based on a post about #Cuba from the #news collective #BellyOfTheBeast on Telegram]
More than 150 Cuban doctors left Honduras yesterday after the government announced it will no longer hire Cuban medical workers. Cuban doctors had supported Honduras’ health system since 1998, often working in poor urban neighborhoods and remote rural areas.
Over the past year, Paraguay, the Bahamas, Antigua and Barbuda, Guatemala, and Guyana have also ended medical agreements with Cuba following intense #US pressure.
Analysts say Washington is targeting Cuban medical missions — one of the island’s main sources of hard currency — using diplomatic pressure, visa restrictions, and campaigns portraying the program as “human trafficking.”

@Peter_Link @kevinmorley @cuba I imagine the US is not supplying replacement medical personnel. So the net result of this is that more people suffer from treatable illness, more people die, and Cuba is even more straitened than it has been. The #USA truly is a disgusting bully.
