Rallies are planned in at least fifty cities this Tuesday, according to a list established by the CGT.
In Paris, it will take place in front of the Ministry of Health from 1:30 p.m.
Caregivers and other hospital employees are called to a new day of mobilization, organized by the CGT and its allies, to demand salary and staff increases, on the eve of the legislative elections.
Worn out by the Covid, disappointed by the "Ségur", worried about the summer: nine unions (including CGT, SUD and CFE-CGC) and collectives (including Inter Hospitals and Inter Urgences) are trying to revive the social movement in the hospital , before having, according to them, "to count the dead" for lack of means to treat the sick.
Gatherings will also be held in Grenoble, Marseille, Nantes and Toulouse among the main ones, but also smaller ones such as Aurillac (Cantal), Épernay (Marne) or Cherbourg (Manche), where Emmanuel Macron came last week to announce a "mission flash” on the emergency services.

Lack of emergency personnel
Because the fire is smoldering in the emergency room.
For lack of caregivers, at least 120 services have been forced to limit their activity or are preparing for it, according to a count at the end of May from the Samu-Urgences de France association.
It is moreover its president François Braun who will have to submit the conclusions of the “flash mission” to the Head of State by the end of June.
A calendar which amounts to "postponing the decisions after the legislative elections" of June 12 and 19, when the health system is already "in a disaster situation", denounced the emergency doctor Christophe Prudhomme, of the CGT-Santé, Monday on RFI.
In an interview with the regional press on Friday, the Head of State promised to "take emergency decisions as early as July", justifying this delay in order to "look at emergency service by emergency service and Samu by Samu, territory by territory where there are needs”.
