Cuba's war on Ebola
Earlier this month, the Washington Post reported: "In the medical response to Ebola, Cuba is punching far above its weight." While the world stood accused of "dragging its feet" following the onset of the epidemic, the Post noted, the diminutive island had "emerged as a crucial provider of medical expertise in the West African nations hit by Ebola". One hundred and sixty five health care professionals had already been dispatched to Sierra Leone - the largest team thus far sent by a foreign nation - and nearly 300 additional doctors and nurses were being trained for deployment to Liberia and Guinea. Cuba's...

Cuba sends 300 more doctors to fight Ebola
Cuba says it will send nearly 300 more doctors and nurses to West Africa to help fight the Ebola epidemic.
The Cubans will work in Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia, Regla Angulo, head of the Cuban medical relief agency, said in a statement on Friday.
The announcement means that up to 461 Cuban medical personnel would have been sent to help address the epidemic spreading across West Africa.
Angulo said the staff were currently undergoing intense training ahead of their deployment, working in a mock field hospital of the kind they expected to find in the region.
Cuba's decision comes as health experts from 16 European countries urged their governments to massively scale up manpower and resources to fight the Ebola epidemic, now threatening "the entire world".
European countries should urgently send trained medical staff, field laboratories, protective clothing, disinfectants and basic tools such as electricity generators, 44 public health professionals and academics wrote in The Lancet medical journal.
"After months of inaction and neglect from the international community, the Ebola epidemic in West Africa has now spiralled utterly out of control," said their open letter.
"Today, the virus is a threat not only to the countries where the outbreak has overwhelmed the capacity of national health systems, but also to the entire world.
"We urge our governments to mobilise all possible resources to assist West Africa in dealing with this horrific epidemic."
On Thursday. US President Barack Obama said the global community had not done enough to respond to the crisis.
"There is still a significant gap between where we are and where we need to be," Obama said on Thursday while addressing a high-level UN meeting on Ebola.
Margaret Chan, director of the World Health Organisation, addressed the Ebola meeting before Obama.
Chan said the virus was "still running ahead, jumping over everything we put in place to slow it down".
The American government has dispatched 3,000 US troops to Liberia to set up facilities and form training teams to help treat patients.
The deadliest Ebola epidemic has infected more than 6,200 people in west Africa and killed nearly half of them since late last year, according to the World Health Organisation (WHO).

Ebola: Cuba tend la main aux Etats-Unis dans la lutte contre le virus
LA HAVANE – 18 oct 2014 – C'est une main tendue dans un contexte de crise sanitaire. Fidel Castro, a proposé aux États-Unis de collaborer dans la lutte contre le virus Ebola, alors même que les deux pays entretiennent des relations exécrables, depuis près de 50 ans. Dans une lettre lue à la télévision d’État, le leader cubain appelle le gouvernement américain à mettre les querelles de côté : « Nous serons heureux de collaborer avec le personnel américain dans cette tâche, non pas pour la recherche de la paix entre nos deux États qui ont été adversaires pendant tant d'années, mais pour la paix dans le monde, un objectif qui peut et doit être tenté » déclare Fidel Castro.
En dépit de ses difficultés économiques, Cuba a dépêché début octobre 165 médecins et personnels de santé en Sierra Leone. Départ salué en grande pompe par Raul Castro, l'actuel dirigeant du régime.
Près de 300 autres Cubains sont attendus au Liberia et en Guinée. Même s'il est dans la tradition du régime d'exporter son savoir-faire médical dans les pays en voie de développement, l'effort a été salué par John Kerry, le secrétaire d’État américain. Les États-Unis pour leur part ont déployé plus de 3000 militaires en Afrique de l'Ouest à des fins logistiques.

France: "Fight Ebola with Cuban doctors, NOT U.S. guns," blasts MEP
VideoID: 20140917-029
W/S European Parliament acting president and staff arrive and take their seats
SOT, Lola Sánchez Caldentey, Podemos MEP (in Spanish): "[These people] don't need military support: if we take the example of Cuba they sent more than 165 doctors, highly specialised. Compare that with the United States which is preparing to send more than 3,000 troops with the excuse of supporting the construction of a medical structure, they are sending more soldiers than doctors. These people are suffering enough as it is without their region being militarised."
W/S European Parliament chamber [CUTAWAY]
SOT, Michèle Rivasi, Europe Écologie MEP (French): "The international community did not react quickly enough, even the WHO. They said to themselves 'we'll be able to limit the epidemic', and then it left off at a greatly increased speed. We saw that the countries were unable to respond, we are in a state of war, when we see the situation in Liberia, even the Prime Minister declares that 'my country will crumble'. There's no sanitary system left, there's no business, and there's even a looming food crisis."
W/S European Parliament chamber [cutaway]
SOT, Linda McAvan, Labour Party MEP (English): "Why have more people died in this epidemic than have died since the disease was first identified about 40 years ago? Why is it that vaccines and treatments have been 'looked at' for many years, but we haven't had the results we need?"
W/S European Parliament chamber [cutaway]
SCRIPT
Members of the European Parliament debated the EU's response to the Ebola outbreak in Strasbourg on Wednesday. MEP Michèle Rivasi said that Liberia was facing a "state of war" with no sanitation system, no business, and the threat of a food crisis on the horizon. She underlined how dangerous the disease was to the countries of West Africa and bemoaned the sluggishness of the 'international community'.
Podemos MEP Lola Caldentey brought up the example of Cuba, which has sent 300 doctors to the affected areas. She compared this with the USA, which announced its intention on Tuesday to send 3,000 troops to help efforts to combat the disease. Another MEP, Miguel Viegas of the Portuguese Communist Party, also praised Cuba's humanitarian contribution later in the debate.

FIDEL CASTRO OFRECE AYUDA DE CUBA CONTRA EL EBOLA EN ESTADOS UNIDOS 19 OCTUBRE 2014
El expresidente cubano Fidel Castro ofreció ayer a Estados Unidos la cooperación de su país en la lucha contra el ébola, pese a la rivalidad que mantienen ambos países desde hace más de medio siglo.
Gustosamente cooperaremos con el personal norteamericano en esa tarea (la lucha contra el ébola), y no en búsqueda de la paz entre los dos Estados que han sido adversarios durante tantos años sino, en cualquier caso, por la paz para el mundo”, aseguró Castro en un artículo publicado en el diario oficial Granma.
En el texto titulado La hora del deber, el exmandatario volvió a elogiar el envío de cooperantes cubanos a África para la lucha contra la actual epidemia de ébola.
Cuba dio “respuesta rápida” al pedido de la ONU, “como se ha hecho siempre ante una solicitud de cooperación”, indicó Castro, que gobernó la isla durante casi medio siglo hasta 2006.
La isla envió a comienzos de mes a un grupo de 165 cooperantes médicos a Sierra Leona y ofreció enviar a casi 300 más a Liberia y Guinea. Los tres países son los más afectados por la epidemia.
Castro también elogió la celebración de una cumbre sobre el ébola de los países que integran el bloque de izquierdas del ALBA (Alianza Bolivariana para los Pueblos de Nuestra América), que tendrá lugar mañana en La Habana.
Aunque está retirado del poder desde 2006 tras enfermar de gravedad, el octogenario líder cubano suele publicar de vez en cuando artículos de opinión en la prensa local. A sus posiciones se les sigue atribuyendo gran peso en el gobierno que lidera su hermano Raúl Castro.
Recientemente, Fidel Castro dedicó ya un texto al envío de médicos y cooperantes cubanos a África. Según cifras actuales de la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS), el brote ha dejado unos 4,555 muertos y casi nueve mil contagios en todo el mundo.
La epidemia llegó también a Estados Unidos con un liberiano que se infectó en su país y murió en un hospital de Texas a comienzos de octubre. En tanto, dos enfermeras que trataron al paciente han dado también positivo.
El presidente estadunidense, Barack Obama, nombró a un coordinador especial para que lidere la lucha contra el ébola, según publicó el diario The New York Times.
El secretario de Estado norteamericano, John Kerry, pidió además un
mayor compromiso a la comunidad internacional en la lucha contra la enfermedad.
Si no reaccionamos de forma adecuada a esta epidemia, el ébola tiene el potencial de plagas como el sida o la polio, contra las que al final tuvimos que luchar todos durante décadas”, aseveró.
Pide no tener miedo
El presidente Obama aseguró ayer que los estadunidenses no deberían tener miedo ni caer en la histeria por el virus del ébola.
“Debemos dejar que la ciencia nos guíe”, señaló ayer en su mensaje semanal.
Obama apuntó que en Estados Unidos no hay un “brote” ni una “epidemia” de la enfermedad, y destacó que sólo hay tres casos conocidos en una población de más de 300 millones de personas.
Tenemos que ver esto desde la perspectiva correcta”, añadió, y apuntó que miles de estadunidenses mueren al año por gripe.
En relación con el debate sobre la posibilidad de que se prohíba el ingreso por aire de los pasajeros que provienen de los países afectados,
Obama dijo que Estados Unidos no puede aislarse de África occidental.
El intento de aislar a una región entera del mundo, aun cuando eso fuera posible, podría de hecho empeorar la situación”, consideró.
