Their scientists also developed a very potent cure for Alzheimers disease names NeuralCIM. Dr. Bill Blanchet, a US doctor is helping US patients to get treatment in Cuba. AFAIK the only western country doing a clinical trial with it is Canada.

Not exactly, NeuralCIM does appear to slow Alzheimers progression, only measuring cognitive scores but it is far from a “cure”.
It’s being tested at Phase 2 in Canada, with plans for a large phase 3, this time using brain imaging.
How CIM can make this drug for $2.50 a dose is another question for capitalism, because by the time it gets approved in North America, it will cost thousands.
Ironic that the country under siege by the USA has the one drug the US president needs.

Right now the genocidal blockade is preventing vital cancer-treating medicine from entering Cuba, so while Cuba does have numerous advantages over the US even with its imperialism, right now the people are being starved and cut off of vital necessities.
