The article signed by journalist, Alexandra Sifferlin, highlighted that Cuba has offered doctors and nurses to West Africa and at this moment 165 of them are there, in coordination with the World Health Organization (WHO).
More than 50,000 health workers from Cuba are working in 66 countries all over the world, stressed the Time journal.
