Even the Miami Herald Sympathizes!!!
When the Miami Herald, and especially Nora Gamez Torres, write about Cuba it is always from the perspectives of Little Havana Counter Revolutionaries and Havana dissidents, and never are opinions of Cubans who love their island considered. Yet today -- January 27, 2021 -- even the Miami Herald and Nora Gamez Torres seemed to have some sympathy for Cubans on the island who are suffering from both the simultaneous blows of COVID-19 and the genocidal U. S. Blockade, both of which have particularly harmed the island in recent days. Here is a part of the very long article the Herald and Gamez published today about the increased suffering of Cubans on the island.
Normally the Miami Herald and Nora Gamez Torres tell their readers that all the good Cubans are in the Miami area and all the bad Cubans are still on the nearby island. Such propaganda includes usually only includes Counter Revolutionary and dissident views, never the opinions of the majority Cubans in Cuba who support their Revolution and mortally hate the Little Havana-promoted genocidal Blockade that the superpower U. S government aims at them. But, as you can detect above, today Gamez and the Miami Herald...incredibly...appeared to be honestly displaying a little concern for Cuban families in Cuba reeling from the twin perils of the genocidal Blockade and a deadly surge of the deadly COVID-19 virus that has hit the island. Above you can see that today even Gamez and the Herald permitted a non-dissident Cuban on the island to provide an opinion and insight.
The Miami Herald article regarding Cuba today, amazingly, included a pertinent comment from Dr. Maria Guadalupe Guzman, who is an expert at Cuba's Pedro Kouri Institute of Tropical Medicine. She confirmed that the dreaded South African strain of COVID-19 has been detected on the island. Dr. Guadalupe Guzman said: "With the data we have, we cannot say that it is widespread in the country. But we cannot rule it out because a high number of cases are being reported daily."
Today a Cuban on the island, Saily Martin, took this photo of mean-looking storm clouds blanketing her Havana. But Saily and the other pugnacious and family-oriented Cubans in Cuba are most worried about the daily effects of the U.S. Blockade and the COVID-19 PANDEMIC. Since January 2nd there have been 50 deaths and 9,404 new COVID cases in Cuba and prior to this surge the island had one of the world's best successful records in dealing with the pandemic.
Today...despite the storm clouds, the Blockade, and the Pandemic...professional photographer Wendy Oliva posted this photo on her social media platforms...as if to emphasize that Cuban families on the island since 1959 have survived Little Havana and now they will now in January of 2021 continue to survive Little Havana, the Pandemic, and all the other Storm Clouds that threaten their vulnerable but beautiful island.
