HEALTH – “The public hospital is in a catastrophic state. ” These are the words of Pierre Niney who, on Twitter this Tuesday, May 31, took the floor to denounce the current management of the public health system.
“The alarm bell has been ringing for years, long before Covid, but also during and now after,” the 33-year-old comedian breathes on the social network. His message is short and clear. He addresses “everything [son] support for caregivers ”. Pierre Niney concludes: “It’s time to give public services the place they deserve.”

The alarm bell has been ringing for years, long before the covid but also during and now after…
All my support goes to the caregivers
It’s time to dump her and move on– Pierre Niney (@pierreniney) May 31, 2022
These remarks had their effect on the side of the main stakeholders: the caregivers. On Twitter, many of them commented on Pierre Niney’s post, endorsing his message or thanking him for his support.
Public health is in a catastrophic state… the hospital being the last link, it must not forget the rest… medical-social, education, climate…

In a meeting with the CVS of the EHPAD where I work, once again it is the residents and the cared for who take the reverse of all the failures on the lack of medical staff .. the call for help from these residents who can’t do it anymore .. it hurts my heart

I started my studies in 2008, and from then on I heard that the hospital was starting to collapse for a while! I’ve been a nurse since 2011, I confirm, everything is falling apart and it seems too late to catch up!

Thank you very much. What a pity that your colleagues in the art and media world do not support you. I dream of a great mobilization of those who have a media weight in favor of the hospital 🙏🙏🙏

Thanks to the great actor @pierreniney who doesn’t need a flash mission to understand! Yes, let’s give public services the essential role they must play in a solidary republic.

Thank you for your support @pierreniney Our 2019 government alerts have never been heard. This did not stop us from working tirelessly during the Covid out of professionalism. Now we have to act before our lives are in the hands of shareholders! https://t.co/hX3enHa4fP

What Pierre Niney writes does not come from anywhere. His remarks even seem that the emergency system is currently in a particularly alarming situation. According to the calculations of the association Samu-Urgences de France (SUdF) relayed by AFP, at least 120 emergency services were forced to limit their activity due to lack of caregivers.
Emergencies “in agony”
In The World, we learn, this Saturday, May 28, that no less than 1,500 caregivers sounded the alarm bell by addressing directly to Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne and Health Minister Brigitte Bourguignon. “A plan to rescue the French health system is the only real emergency,” they say, warning of a “short-term threat of collapse” of the French hospital system.
This Tuesday, August 31, Emmanuel Macron announced from Cherbourg Hospital a “flash mission” to respond to the crisis, whose staff shortage and other human and financial difficulties have long undermined the morale of caregivers. As soon as it was launched, this “flash mission” was not only commented on by Pierre Niney, it was also criticized by the opposition. “Soon we will have the report on the report,” said, for example, Stéphane Troussel, president of the Seine-Saint-Denis.
François Ruffin, on the other hand, was more virulent about the head of state’s assessment, stating on Twitter that “Macron has been methodically destroying the hospital for five years” and that he is now giving himself a month to build it. the balance sheet ”. He also reminded her: “Emergencies are in agony.”
