Their work, together with their Gambian colleagues, allowed the recovery of numerous infected people and reduced the incidence of the disease caused by the new coronavirus.<\/p>\n<p>The effective collaboration in this branch also makes it possible to train young doctors in Gambian territory, who receive the same curriculum taught at the Latin American School of Medicine in Havana, founded in November 1999 at the initiative of the historical leader of the Cuban revolution, Fidel Castro.<\/p>\n<p>Dedication, commitment and love for Gambia, this is how the authorities and people of the African nation describe the daily work of Cuban doctors for whom the greatest satisfaction is helping those in need and saving lives.<\/p>\n<p>In Gambia, as in other States of the world, the health professionals of the Caribbean nation have left an indelible mark and are an example of the solidarity that distinguishes the Cuban revolution and its commitment to making health care accessible to all, a essential human right.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/gambia\">Gambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
