in cuba , before the revolution triumph in 1959 , due to the great amount of illiteracy , inculture and misery of most of the people , a great deal of our children , when they became ill , were delivered in to hands of babblers or ignorants who gave them decoctions of herbs , and witch treatments , all this accompanied by the lack of medical establishments and staff , especially in the provinces , as well as the low standard of life of most of the people who could not afford the stay in the few existing medical centers which did not offer sanitary education or preventive measures either .
