When the Belgian Prime Minister visited the Saint-Pierre hospital in Brussels, the staff showed their displeasure by turning their backs on. "This is a strong signal of distrust of the country's top leadership," says SVT correspondent Christoffer Wendick.
The discontent is based on how the country's management handled the corona crisis, the lack of protective equipment and a new proposal from the government, where unskilled labor could be used instead of trained nurses.
In a silent protest, hospital staff turned their backs on the Prime Minister's arriving car driver.
