Louis Fouché, who did not respond to

20 Minutes's

requests

for this article, belongs to the Réinfocovid collective.

The collective calls for the suspension of confinement measures, the obligation to wear a mask outside and by children at school.

The collective advocates wearing a mask during "close [or] prolonged contact with a fragile subject", in a "care situation", or when the "person [is] ill".

For other situations, the collective advocates "leaving citizens the free choice to wear or not" a mask.

Opposed to re-containment

Louis Fouché also recommends the use of hydroxychloroquine, azythromycin and zinc to fight against Covid-19.

He opposed the re-containment, denouncing “major side effects”.

The doctor was summoned for an interview with the management of the AP-HM (Public Assistance - Hospitals of Marseille) on November 5, which he described as "a very courteous exchange".

At the end of this "interview", the AP-HM recalled in a press release sent to

20 Minutes

that "the 16,000 professionals of the AP-HM benefit in the private framework of the same freedom of expression as any citizen ”.

This right "is exercised in compliance with the missions and obligations of the public hospital service", she said.

A month later, Louis Fouché participated in front of the IHU led by Didier Raoult in a rally of parents opposed to wearing a mask at school.

In particular, he criticized the vaccination of the elderly in nursing homes.
