Abstract
The death of Jamaican prisoner Ivan Morgan continues to raise questions about his medical care whilst in prison. Flo O'Connor of the Jamaican Council on Human Rights expressed concern about the circumstances surrounding the death. The Saint Lucian Opposition plans a protest march against the UN funds scandal and the government's industrial policy. Britain's beleaguered national health service, once the envy of the world, is sending its managers to Cuba for advice on how to run the organization. Belize's Minister of Health and Sport, Ruben Campos comments on how Belize has, so far, taken advantage of Cuban medical expertise. Bertram Niles reports on the findings of Dr. R. Wiseman's study on whether doubles in Trinidad are a national delicacy or a national disaster. At the Scientific Meeting of the Caribbean Medical Research Council there were concerns that Caribbean governments may be ignoring valuable medical research in the region. In cricket, the West Indies will start an uphill struggle when they respond to the Australians mammoth score.
