Medical Practices in the Spotlight: The author claims that decades of blocked US–Cuba exchanges have left many people without a clear view of Cuba’s healthcare work, making it easier to push negative messaging.

Local Impact Note: There’s no direct, new health policy or outbreak reporting in this week’s items—this coverage is mainly about how health systems get discussed through politics.
