Summary.
When Olivier Véran takes the head of the Ministry of Solidarity and Health on February 16, 2020, he still has no idea what to expect.
At the time, the pension reform was his hottest issue.
But in less than three weeks, the global Covid-19 pandemic has overturned its priorities.
The French then discovered this 39-year-old neurologist, invited to all stages to explain the interest of barrier gestures and confinement.
Educator and available, he becomes one of the faces of this health crisis, and an indispensable minister to the President of the Republic.
The former socialist deputy from Isère is an early support for Emmanuel Macron.
Health referent of the candidate during the campaign for the presidential election of 2017, he dreamed, in case of victory, of this ministry first entrusted to Agnès Buzyn.
More than a year after taking office, Olivier Véran is at the helm despite a frantic pace and a few hiccups.
Marcelo Wesfreid, political journalist at Le Parisien, traces his career in Code source.
