We're a long way from the embargo ending. Look at what just happened with the rollback of Obama's Cuba policies. Two idiot congressmen convinced our idiot president to make it harder on Cubans on the island.

Both childbirth and abortion are medical procedures but neither is an illness, and sometimes they're both treated as such.

Interestingly, in Cuba abortion is treated as lightly as getting a mole removed.

Our real world has evolved. It's become something much different, and inadvertently about healthcare, and about what it means to have good health, and to be able to have good health.

The legacy of the embargo will be Cuba's poverty and desperation. When the island comes out of it, they'll be even more desperate than they are now about the things they think they've missed. I think one of the unintended results of the embargo is that Cuba is quite consumerist - and I'm talking about the people, not the government or the official propaganda.

I tell people to have a relationship with their work every day, even if it means you just move a comma.

I'm never afraid of research. I relish it!
