Havana, May 16 (RHC), -- The 48-member-strong Cuban medical team that arrived in Nepal this week will shortly begin to assist the victims of recent devastating earthquakes in that Asian nation. A field hospital managed by the Cuban doctors will soon open its doors in Kathmandu, the capital of the Himalayan country.
The medical center will be equipped with a surgical unit, a sterilization room, and other areas for intensive care, routine check-ups and rehabilitation.
Cuba has sent in addition a shipment of pharmaceutical products to alleviate the sanitary needs of those affected by the seisms, that left thousands dead, and scores injured and homeless.
