What passes for "healthcare" in Cuba would never fly here.

I'm always amused when the World Health Organization lauds the beauty of Cuban healthcare, particularly the low infant mortality rate.

In the US, when a severly premature infant is born with a pulse then dies, it is an infant mortality. In Cuba the same infant is classified as a miscarriage. Funny how statistics can be manipulated when you need to make a point.
