It's not the 'summer of joy' in Cuba


Cuba avoided any significant outbreaks of Covid in 2020, but now its number of daily cases is exploding.   6,421 cases on July 11, 2021.



Cuba didn't have that many total cases until October 22, 2020 -- more than 8 months into the pandemic.

The protests erupted amid Cuba's worst economic crisis since the fall of the Soviet Union, its old ally, and a record surge in coronavirus infections, with people voicing anger over shortages of basic goods, curbs on civil liberties and the authorities' handling of the pandemic.
