⚠️ 3.5 million syringes remain in Jamaica, due to the refusal of a French ship to bring them to #Cuba

Due to #sanctions imposed by the #US government, the French ship CMA CGM recently canceled the transfer of cargo to #Cuba; and left dozens of containers in Kingston, #Jamaica, that were supposed to arrive in our country, including one with 3.5 million syringes and needles donated by the Spanish non-governmental organization SODePAZ to #PublicHealth institutions in Santiago de Cuba.
