US Blockade against Cuba Is a Sin, American Physician Says

Havana, Sep 21. -The U.S. blockade against Cuba is a sin, and it has no sense, said an American doctor participating in this capital in the 7th International Conference, PsychoHabana 2018.

That policy has been in force for more than 50 years and the only thing they have achieved is to make the island's people suffering, the specialist in internal medicine, Allison Schachter, told Prensa Latina.

I hope everything will change sooner or later, she said during the second day of the meeting, in which representatives from around 10 countries are participating.

There, the most progressive people are very motivated to change the state of affairs, which I consider to be a disgrace, the New York expert said.

Schachter participated in the session dedicated to the authentically Cuban psychotherapeutic method, Psycho-Ballet. She expressed great joy when she saw the ability of young people with special needs performing their musical pieces.

I do not know if there is a similar experience in my country, but I would be interested -for being a doctor specializing in patients with HIV/AIDS- being capable of contributing to their quality of life, she stated. (Taken from Prensa Latina, by Reina Magdariaga)
