JEANNE MESERVE, CNN ANCHOR: We have to glean a few more details, now, about the crash of that Cuban plane yesterday in the Gulf of Mexico. Joining us now on the telephone is Dr. Myron Binns of the Carnival Cruise Lines. Dr. Binns, I understand you treated some of the people who were taken from the water. How did that come to be?</s>DR. MYRON BINNS, TREATED CRASH VICTIMS: Hi, yes, I did. I was called to the bridge by our captain in the evening, and we were told a ship was in distress. Our ship rendezvoused with their ship and I went across with supporting crew in a life boat.</s>MESERVE: And how many people did you treat and how injured were they?</s>BINNS: OK, I treated three people. A male -- am I allowed to give names?</s>MESERVE: No, I don't think you should at this point.</s>BINNS: OK, I treated a male. He had severe injuries to his head and to his ribcage; and there were two other people, two females who had injuries which were important, but not life threatening.</s>MESERVE: Do you speak Spanish, were you able to converse with these people?</s>BINNS: Yes, they spoke only English. I speak enough Spanish to conduct a medical conversation, but not enough to have a social conversation.</s>MESERVE: Did they discuss, at all, their flight from Cuba and the circumstances of their departure?</s>BINNS: You may or may not believe it, but at the time that I treated these people I didn't have a clue where they were from. I assumed that they were either crew or passengers on the ship.</s>MESERVE: OK, Dr. Myron Binns of Carnival Cruise Lines, thank you for joining us.
