In Guadeloupe, the movement to challenge the health pass and the compulsory vaccination of caregivers is gaining momentum.

The island has been plagued by urban violence and looting for several days.

Emmanuel Macron spoke on Monday of "a very explosive situation" and asked "not to give in to lies and manipulation".

Caregivers "molested"

Cédric Zolezzi, deputy director of the Pointe-à-Pitre University Hospital, described a deleterious climate on RTL's antenna this morning.

He said the hospital had been blocked for more than a week, "intermittently", and that caregivers were "molested".

“As she was finishing her shift, a nurse's aide was targeted by a person with a shotgun,” he explained.

She is shocked.

We want this violence to stop.

“The ambulances no longer dare to pick up patients, the SMUR is stuck at night.

(…) Every day we are suspended from possible road blockages, ”he added.

The President of the Republic reacted to the crisis in Guadeloupe on the sidelines of a trip to Amiens.

"There is a situation which is very explosive, which is linked to a very local context, to tensions that we know and which are historical and also to certain interests which seek a little to use this context and the anxiety", said Emmanuel Macron.
