While a profitable pharmacy could close its doors for lack of buyer in the Channel, the president of the Central Council of the national order of pharmacists attributed this situation to the lack of willingness of young people to be "alone behind a counter ten hours a day ".

A closure as a symbol of health desertification in some territories. In Saint-Martin-des-Landelles, in the Channel, the only pharmacist in this town of 1,200 souls is about to sell his pharmacy for a symbolic euro, for lack of buyer. Yet the business is profitable. A situation that the pharmacist attributes in part to the fact that he is alone behind his counter "at least 10 hours a day".

"Today young people want to work in groups with other young people"

A statement that shares Pierre Béguerie, president of the central council of the national order of pharmacists. Guest of the morning of Europe 1 Thursday, the pharmacist believes that "health actors must work together to find combinations" and avoid areas that end without a doctor or pharmacist. "We have a problem of society: today, young people want to work in groups with other young people," he says at the microphone of Europe 1.

To believe the president, the situation of this pharmacist is also found among doctors and pharmacists. "It is necessary that all the health professionals work with several, in association.There, will revive these areas of health as it is provided in the text 'My Health 2022'" advocated by Agnès Buzyn.
