12:03 : What are the main news headlines:
Several unions and hospital collectives are calling for mobilization to demand recruitment and wage increases, against the backdrop of the emergency crisis. Rallies are expected, especially at 1:30 p.m. in front of the Ministry of Health in Paris.
After the death of a woman hit by police shooting on Saturday in Paris, the custody of the three police officers present was extended.
“Intense street fighting continues” in Sievierodonestk, said Volodymyr Zelensky last night. In this key city of Luhansk province, “the situation changes every hour”according to the mayor.
11:52 : Concern affects all hospital departments. “NOTWe have a midwifery problem”alert for example on franceinfo Joëlle Belaisch-Allart, president of the National College of French gynecologists and obstetricians. “They are a little fed up with the difficulty of the birth room and are moving towards gynecology and planning in town”, she explains. This pushes some maternities to give up certain consultations and childbirth preparation courses.
11:42 : In addition to the burning news of the emergency services crisis, the caregivers mobilized today are demanding recruitment and better salaries in all areas of the public hospital. And are not convinced either by the Ségur de la Santé which was held in 2020, nor by the announcement of a “flash mission” which should lead to new proposals at the end of June. Here is a summary of the causes of the movement.
11:46 : “The diagnosis was made long before Ségur and even if ten billion have been put on the table, including 450 million for practitioners, these measures are insufficient. It’s not just about money: people have to be trained so that they can do their job. For example, in my department, I sometimes push stretchers because I don’t have any orderlies in my department, particularly in the emergency room.”
On franceinfo, a representative of emergency physicians, Jean-François Cibien, insists on the many needs of the public hospital, while gatherings of caregivers are organized throughout France today.
09:52 : “There, the problem that arises is that everything that is institutions, ministries, professional associations say to do the 15. We are already under tension and there, it will be even worse. (…) There has about 1,500 medical records a day.”
While caregivers are mobilizing today to denounce the lack of resources and staff, our journalist Mathilde Imberty has collected testimonies in the Rhône. Including that of Alexandre, who answers calls on 15 and fears an even greater load with the arrival of sunny days and accidents related to outdoor activities.
12:01 : Let’s once again take stock of the main news for this Tuesday:
Several unions and hospital collectives are calling for mobilization to demand recruitment and wage increases, against the backdrop of the emergency crisis. Gatherings are expected, especially in Paris.
After the death of a woman hit by police shooting on Saturday in Paris, the custody of the three police officers present was extended.
“Intense street fighting continues” in Sievierodonestk, said Volodymyr Zelensky last night. In this key city of Luhansk province, “the situation changes every hour”according to the mayor.
08:31 : “I found subsistence work at the factory. I’ve been gone too long. I’ve done my grief work from the hospital.”
And if the vaccination obligation were lifted, the suspended caregivers would not all return to work. Since last September and the entry into force of the measure, some, like Emilie, have told me that they have turned the page, out of the need to find an income or out of rejection from the institution and certain colleagues with whom relations have deteriorated. were tense. They also find it hard to believe in their possible reintegration: Emmanuel Macron opened the door in April, but wants to wait for the Scientific Council to qualify the Covid-19 as“endemic”. The HAS, which was to be seized for an opinion, has not yet been. More details in my article.
08:24 : Reintegrating the non-vaccinated would, on the other hand, make it possible to strengthen the staff of hospitals, which is why personalities like Patrick Pelloux are calling for it to be done. But, nine months after the entry into force of the vaccination obligation, there is no count of the number of caregivers dismissed for this reason: in the fall, the figure of 7,930 caregivers had been advanced, but it is likely to be incomplete and to have evolved a great deal since then. Impossible, therefore, to measure the usefulness of their return for the public hospital.
08:27 : “The epidemiological argument was true and could become so again [en cas de nouvelle vague]. This is when the risk of these people being infected is high. And if they are in contact with fragile patients, we put these patients at risk.”
Unsurprisingly, epidemiologists tend to favor the suspension of unvaccinated people. They recall that the vaccine does not prevent contamination, but reduces the risk. And that it is far from impossible that a new epidemic wave will hit France in the months to come.
08:19 : The emergency crisis and the glaring lack of staff in hospitals are helping to put back on the table a measure that was no longer really debated: the vaccination obligation for caregivers. The CGT, in particular, makes it a claim within the framework of the social movement organized today. But this idea raises many questions: isn’t it still risky from a health point of view? Are the suspended caregivers numerous enough to change the situation? And do they want their jobs back? I try to answer it in this article.
