Chalita Manzur pointed out that several associations of medical professionals “we are totally once morest this happening” (the hiring of Cuban doctors), since she mentioned that, for example, it is not known what preparation Cuban doctors have, they do not know the problem of country and the diseases of Mexicans, and they are not certified by Mexican law, for which he even stressed that “it is not legal for them to work in Mexican territory.”
