Chavez back in Cuba
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez arrived in Havana early Wednesday November 28th for a new found of medical treatment. Venezuela is soon to have their own regional elections so the timing of this is not the greatest. Right now it is still un clear how long Chavez who now declares himself cancer free would stay in Cuba. The state of Cuba mentioned that Chavez will undergo several sessions of hyperbaric oxygen therapy. This treatment helps prevent and mend bone damage caused by radiation therapy. It involves breathing oxygen in a sealed chamber that has been pressurized at up to three times normal atmospheric pressure.

Hugo Chavez
This is not the first time Chavez has utilised medical
treatments in the state of Cuba. From June 2011 to May 2012, he underwent
cancer treatment. Chavez using Cuba`s medical system shows just how strong it
is and that the billions of dollars invested it in have shown to bring benefits
to the people. Cuba has become a top notch medical state where hopefully for
the country of Venezuela it can make Hugo Chavez healthier so he can run the
country more effectively.
Interesting!
