We’ve just received word that 2 good ultrasound machines are finally being shipped from Tampa, Florida (approximately 90 miles from Cuba!) to Thunder Bay in preparation for the 42nd container to be shipped on the October 8th shipping date! Ultrasound machines are particularly useful for follow-up of positive mammograms.

Because of the US blockade to Cuba, these machines must take this 1,700 mile detour from Florida to Canada before being shipped. However, we are grateful that we have been able to get our hands on them as Ultrasound Machines are usually worn out before hospitals dispose of them. This is great news for the people of Via Clara province!
