Public Meeting: Cuba's response to the Kashmir earthquake
When a devastating earthquake hit Pakistan in 2005, Cuba sent 2,500 doctors and 32 fully-equipped field hospitals (of 44 in total sent by the outside world). The ‘Henry Reeve’ emergency medical brigade carried out 1.7 million consultations and continued working in the worst affected areas long after the TV cameras and other agencies had left.
