SOT, Mathieu, Pulmonologist in Covid intensive care (French): "We saw that during this period that when we were given the resources for the public hospital it was effective, it was capable of employing enormous efficiency and treating a large number of people. We have seen that these means, considered magic, that there they appeared. It is a question of political choice."
M/S Protesters clapping *CUTAWAY*
SOT, Mathieu, Pulmonologist working in Covid intensive care (French) : "This crisis situation was badly managed, badly anticipated. There has been a shortage of masks, hydroalcoholic gel. We worked with expired masks in a large public hospital in Paris. We are not heroes but we were sacrificed, not me but especially people who work in the retirement homes for elderly for example, who continued to work because they did not have a choice and who had no protection."
M/S Protesters
SOT, Christophe Prudhomme, Spokesperson for the Association of Emergency Physicians of France (AMUF), and doctor at the Samu in Seine-Saint-Denis (French): "When you have the Prime Minister and the Director General of Public Assistance telling us 'the hospital held up' no, the hospital did not hold up. If we had had enough resuscitation beds, we would have not been obliged to transform the recovery rooms in an emergency, the operating theaters, with voluntary staff who did not have the qualification, we wouldn’t have improvised a resuscitation nurse overnight, well there would have been fewer deaths. They have these deaths on their conscience."

Health workers protested against the lack of funds and resources for public hospitals outside Robert-Debre hospital in Paris, on Thursday.
Protesters denounced the working conditions during the peak of the coronavirus crisis.
"This crisis was badly managed, badly anticipated. There has been a shortage of masks, hydroalcoholic gel. We worked with expired masks in a large public hospital in Paris," said an intensive care pulmonologist Mathieu.
In recent weeks, health care professionals have re-engaged in long-standing battles across France with the government in order to demand changes and measures which they say would make it easier to work and battle the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
