The Finlay Institute is the result of our clinical investigations and efforts to provide public health back up to our people inside and outside the island. Cuban public health in the island of Cuba, MINSAP, is currently in great manner under the control of the political leaders of the Revolution. Therefore, the Cubans who fall off the Revolution are ill served or not  served at all by the MINSAP. While most Cubans exiled from the Revolution are residing in the United States, the U.S. Public Health Service does not recognize the Cubans in the U.S. in any special form.
Therefore, it is not unexpected that the health aspects of the Cuban-American community are in need of special attention from groups such as ours. The Finlay Institute is monitoring aspects of  the health of Cubans and Cuban-Americans and providing a forum for clinical investigations that enhance and confirm our understanding of health and disease.
