PARIS (Reuters) - French protesters on Saturday doused the country’s health ministry with red paint, to symbolise the blood of those who died from COVID-19 and to demonstrate against poor working conditions for public sector healthcare workers.
“For years, health workers have been alerting us to the fact they don’t have enough resources with regards to staff, beds and equipment to be able to allow us to look after people decently,” Aurelie Trouve, a spokeswoman for the ‘Attac’ activist group which was behind the protest, told Reuters.
