Cuba is one of the benevolent countries extending support to most African countries as the world is being hit hard with the effects of the virus. More than 200 doctors from Cuba have already arrived in South Africa ready to support the country against covid-19.
The health professionals upon arriving in South Africa were made to self- isolate for two weeks before they start working in the country. Some of these doctors have played significant roles during the outbreak of diseases like cholera in Haiti in 2010, and Ebola in West Africa in 2013.
The Cuban government is currently sending more than 1000 doctors to 22 countries including Togo, Cap Verde and Angola in Africa.
