La Salud en Transicion es: “ Mejorar a través del estudio, el intercambio libre, el diálogo, la planificación y la organización sin dejar a nadie atrás”

Members of Cuban civil society, dissidents and diplomats attended a video-conference organized by the U.S. Interests Section in this capital as part of its "Series of Conferences on the Transition" on the Communist-ruled island.

The video-conference, on the Cuban health care system, was held Tuesday evening at the residence of the top U.S. diplomat here, Michael Parmly, and was conducted from Florida by Cuban-American physician Antonio Maria de Gordon, the co-director of Miami's Westchester General Hospital.
The doctor gave a presentation about the state of Cuba's public health system and its future prospects.

Among those attending the session were several well-known opposition figures including Vladimiro Roca and formerly imprisoned dissidents Marta Beatriz Roque and Oscar Espinosa Chepe, two of the 14 jailed dissidents from among the so-called Group of 75 who were released by the Cuban regime over the past year for health reasons.

The series of conferences began in June and, since then, four other video-sessions have been offered on the rule of law, the judicial system, the public sector in a market economy and possible solutions to the expropriation of property. EFE
