  • Medics sprayed with tear gas by a police officer, a nurse pointing a finger at a police officer ...
  • Two photos are relayed on social networks to show the alleged repression of the government of Edouard Phillippe against them.
  • They actually date from 2010, during the mobilization of nurse anesthetists.

While health care workers are on the front line to treat patients with coronavirus, with the support and encouragement of the government, some Internet users do not fail to criticize the latter for a double discourse.

“LITTLE REMINDER TO MACRON AND PHILIPPE… !!! This is how you treated the nursing staff yesterday who asked for more resources and more staff for public health… !!! "For example, said a Facebook user in caption of a photo showing nurses sprayed with tear gas by a police officer.

"Remember when the Macronian government had nurses, anesthesiologists, doctors who demanded resources for the hospital suppressed by the police / gendarmerie," said another Facebook post about a photo allegedly dated February 2020, showing a nurse pointing the finger at a policeman.

FAKE OFF

If the hospital staff has demonstrated well since last March to demand more resources - and Emmanuel Macron was directly questioned on this subject during a recent visit to the Pitié-Salpêtrière -, the two photos very often used on social networks actually date back to 2010.

We find in fact the first on an article on the Agoravox site, which evokes a demonstration of nurse anesthetists which took place on March 30 in Montpellier, at the time when Roselyne Bachelot was Minister of Health.

The second appears for its part in an article in Doctissimo of October 2010, evoking the same movement of mobilization of this hospital staff who demanded the taking into account of their specific skills and an increase in their salary.

More recently, to respond to the demands of hospital staff, then to deal with the coronavirus epidemic, Agnès Buzyn and her successor at the Ministry of Health, Olivier Véran, have respectively thawed 415 million euros and 260 million euros .
