6. I remember the yarns circulated by the rabid right! Everything but the truth!

In the meantime, Cubans were aware Cubans were being treated, were allowed to bring a partner to share their living quarters, were monitored closely, given especially prepared menus to provide a healthy foundation throughout, were also given a temporary salary to compensate for being away from their jobs, and the medical emergency, once it appeared, was quickly controlled and contained, and overcome. It was dealt with efficiently, while hysteria here was nearly uncontrollable.

Cuba's own scientists created parallel drugs for treatment, since they would never be allowed to get help from the US, and they even sold their products at a tiny fraction of the cost of US pharmaceuticals to other impoverished countries.

I did notice that once they had wrung all the reaction they could from their gullible winger audiences, they were out of steam, and we didn't hear about it any more.

It was good to hear Biden's remark to them that if they won't help, they should get out of the way!

Coming to Jesus!
