"that government and local docs are very important"

Actually, THE most important. The docs perform the actual patient care services. The governments officials provide the cash. Without the cash, their participation in meetings does not qualify as assistance.

They have go to Belmopan and request some monies now in lieu of a future bill appropriating monies on an ongoing basis from the GOB. That's their role.

They do that, then you got something.

I hope that someday we can put aside our fears and prejudices and just laugh at people.
