Assuming a total population of 11.33 million, the number of positive cases represents 6% of the Cuban population. Of the positive cases, only 0.8% (less than 1%) have died. Of the total Cuban population, 0.05% have died from COVID. With such low numbers, it is apparent that Cuba must be doing something right.
