Bataclan: the radio of a wounded woman auctioned by a doctor

It is definitely possible to buy (and sell) everything and anything on the Internet. Last week, a hospital surgeon Georges Pompidou (Paris) put up for sale, on an auction site, the radio of a patient he had treated at the time of the attack which took place at the Bataclan on November 13, 2015. Price? No less than 2,400 euros in NFT, these virtual tokens used for the transaction of works of art on the Internet.

“This act is unethical. We consider it exceptionally serious. We will seize the council of the order and the ministers who have the disciplinary power“, denounced Martin Hirsch, the director of the AP-HP. “He took it lightly at first, laughing. At times, he told me ‘it’s true that ethically I asked myself the question’“, reports Mathieu Suc, the journalist from Médiapart who revealed the case. Contacted by the teams of franceinfo, the doctor recognized an error and said he was sorry for the victims. He also denied his intention to sell the radio, claiming to have awarded it a prize only at the request of the website.
