"the Cuban emphasis on social responsibility and its related moral pressures do create a distinct climate for testing and thorough contact tracing. It is likely that Cuban health professionals see such moral pressures as a plus, not a problem."

Oh, I don't doubt it! Cuba is a pretty monolithic society still..... when the government says "do this!", they are often consequences if "this" is not done.

It would be interesting to see the US try to institute some of the more... ummm... insistent.... aspects of such a program, as in 'moral pressures'.

Still, one can't argue with the basic concept of much education and country-wide programs to highlight the issues.
