The War on Cuba - Season 1 Episode 3 The War on Doctors
The War on Doctors takes an inside look at Cuba’s international medical program through which tens of thousands of Cuban doctors are working in dozens of countries around the world, providing free health care to vulnerable populations. Trump has sought to undermine the program, accusing Cuba of “human trafficking” because it receives billions of dollars in foreign currency in exchange for the doctors’ services. Journalist Liz Oliva Fernández speaks to Cuban doctors who have served on “missions” abroad and investigates how US “humanitarian aid” has been used to create slander campaigns to characterize the doctors as “slaves” or “thugs.”
